Being Nice to someone stressed

t'was the week leading up to break
and all through our school
people were super tired
and not super amused

with the piling on of work and lots school tests
it was easy to see that most people were stressed
it usually goes unnoticed because i don't care
i'm not normally looking out to help or share

however on this certain week it became assigned
to help one another, a Shayne Clarke design
he encouraged to us find someone in dire need
someone that appeared even more stressed than we

find them and help them is your task he said,
and then blog about it before you go to bed

my head raced with thoughts of what could i do
after thinking and thinking i didn't have a clue
more stressed than me? it couldn't possible be true
wait yes it can I'm a pretty mellow dude

i didn't have to search hard, barely at all
because the one that was stressed gave me a call
"can you teach sunday school, i just don't have the time
to prepare a lesson so well and defined
you'd do me a huge favor you don't understand
the relief you would give me taking this off of my hands"

i agreed to help, knowing this would count
as my assignment for mcom i wanted to shout.
this would be so simple so easy and nice
to help this girl out, i'm being so polite

i prepared a lesson, on the millennium in fact
filled with clips to entertain the class
i taught gospel principles which is well known,
to not have the ability to bring in many souls
the class ended up being just me and some friends
we discussed the doctrine until the hours end

we left the class feeling uplifted and blessed
and i did service so i was the best
i helped a fellow saint that was in dire need
i knew that Shayne Clarke would be most pleased
he'll great me on monday saying "well done possum
i knew you'd do it because you're that awesome
you've always been my favorite student just don't tell sidney
she might get upset and who knows might kill me"

I shook his hand and looked him in the eye
and said i love your class you're a heck of a guy.
after this we'll ride off into the sky on a falcon
and say to all below "for our service you're welcome"
