I’ve Got The Homework Blues

A song about avoid – approach and stress management

Homework is hard for me
Something I have to do
Read all chapter thirteen
Solve problem number two

I opened up my books
They gave me dirty looks
They gave me school book flu
They gave me homework blues.

Chorus

I’ve got the homework blues
They keep following me
I want to run away
From this reality

Bye, bye homework blues
Bye, bye homework blues
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye homework blues

I asked my big brother
Brother, what should I do
I don’t want to study
I’ve got the homework blues

He said
I’ve got the sure fire cure
For what’s ailing you
When your homework’s all done
You can’t catch homework blues.

Chorus

Spoken

There comes a time
In every kid’s life
When you have to stand up
And do what is right

Homework is a fact of life
I cannot avoid it
I have to do what’s right
I have to approach it

I stared down at my books
To learn something new
I gave them a long look
I beat the homework blues

Chorus

I beat the homework blues
They’re not following me
I stopped running away
I faced reality

Bye, bye homework blues
Bye, bye homework blues
Bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye homework blues
Bye, bye homework blues
