(Don Elbreg)
A song about RESPONSIBILTY
© 2007 Donald C. Elbreg
Please stay silent in the hall,
keep your hands off of the wall.
Please don’t tip back in your chair
or you may surely fall.
Keep your eyes looking ahead,
and be sure your line is straight.
When you do,
your teacher won’t have to wait.
All these things are our responsibility,
They’re the things we need to do
each and every day.
Even though it’s hard to be responsible
all the time, when you try your best,
I’m sure you’ll do okay.
When you’ve been given a direction
to perform a certain task,
please be sure to listen well
so you won’t have to ask again.
If you have a question,
or something you’d like to say,
don’t shout out or interrupt,
but please raise your hand.
All these things are our responsibility,
They’re the things we need to do
each and every day.
Even though it’s hard to be responsible
all the time, when you try your best,
I’m sure you’ll do okay.
When you try your best,
I’m sure you’ll do okay.
