If you hate to do homework and you're falling behind,

If you must do homework but don't feel inclined,

And when you do homework, it feels like a grind

To get through all the work that you've been assigned,

And your thoughts of your teacher are somewhat unkind,

And you've cried, complained, groaned, and whined,

Wishing your brain was a bit more refined—

One thing will improve your situation, you'll find,

You simply just have to—change your mind.
