Mrs So-and-so

In the classroom

Sits a teacher,

Who she is we do not know.

Our own teacher’s

Feeling poorly,

We’ve got Mrs So-and-so.

Our own teacher’s

Firm but friendly,

Lets us play out in the snow.

Lets us dawdle

In the cloakroom,

Not like Mrs So-and-so.

Stop that pushing!

Stop that shoving!

Line up quietly in a row.

Somehow life

Is not the same with

Bossy Mrs So-and-so.

Our own teacher’s

Kind and clever –

Not a lot she doesn’t know.

Where’s the pencils?

What’s your name, dear?

Says this Mrs So-and-so.

Now at last

Our teacher’s better

And it’s time for her to go.

Funny thing is

Somehow we’ve got…

Used to Mrs So-and-so.
