Let's see you prove that I can't fly,
Or that pigs don't have wings,
Let's see you prove that layers lie,
Or that the fat lady sings.

Let's see you prove that faries aren't real,
Or that Santa is just a joke,
Let's see you prove that laughter won't heal,
Or that all teenagers will smoke.

Let's see you prove that school is cool,
That we should be seen and not heard,
Let's see you prove that our music is cruel,
Or that slouching is not preferred.

Let's see you prove that this is that,
Or that seeing is believing,
Let's see you prove that kids are brats,
Or that I am just deceiving.

Let's see you prove anything,
Anything at all,
Like that summer comes after spring,
Or that this poem is small.

LOL, can't prove a thing to me either, not even that writing/reading at Pips can be fun.

cute and a little immature, but effective nonetheless. i would love to have stapled this to the foreheads of some of the authorities in my old schools.
