-LESSON NUMBER ONE- 



Three Little Boys in a wishing well 

Are secretly gathering wishes to sell 

While our Bobby's asleep 

He dreams of his cent in the deep 

"Wish I may and wish I might, wish upon a splash 

Turn all the people who touch it to ash!" 

-MORAL- 

Don't be a thief, my little dandelion 



These are the lessons I learned, the lessons I learned 



-LESSON NUMBER TWO- 



With side to side desks in an English class 

Side to side students are certain to pass 

But our Mrs. Leni, catches a wandering eye 

In a flash, an empty desk, and smoke fills the sky 

Everyone wonders how she made her pies! 

-MORAL- 

Don't cheat or lie, my little Avalon 



These are the lessons I learned, the lessons I learned 



All of those lonely nights mother would rock me to sleep 

Smoking a cigarette, crossing her legs in the corner, dark and deep 



-LESSONS NUMBER THREE- 

Grandmother stands at the side of the street 

Opposite Alex can't wait for a treat 

But our Bicycle Fleet cuts round the corner to meet 

Granny and it takes her apart in a snap 

All that remains is her daffodil hat 

-MORAL- 

Look every way, before you cross the street 



These are the lessons I learned, the lessons I learned
