NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND

I told the teacher the dog ate my homework,
It wasn’t a lie, just spin.
I told the principal Spot ate my math,
It wasn’t a lie, just spin.

When Security came to search me I said,
Don't bother looking for fleas.
My dog is the same saintly canine that ate
The president's WMD's.
