Graduation

We all walk down the aisle
close together, in single file

for some of us, this is our only fame
for the drop outs, they get eternal shame

we'll march to the podium and say our thanks
to all our supporters here or on distant banks

we only get one chance so we have to make it perfect
so that our supporters countless we do reflect

we will be nervous going up and wish it would soon end
but after we are done we'll hope everyone did comprehend

we'll walk down and send the next student
hoping they will follow your lead and be prudent

after the ceremony is over we'll celebrate all night
but the next day we'll wish class were happening tonight

we'll miss our school but still join the work force
to those who live in the past, working is a bit coarse

we'll always have memories of these times gone by
we'll always have a good story, to help when parenting is nigh

so i salute you, class of 07'
till finally we all go to our reunion in heaven
