POP QUIZ

You can't be serious
But serious she was
While the gathering gathered
And the buildings did buzz.

You can't be serious
But to no one's delight
She was as serious as serious
With no laugh in sight.

You can't be serious
But this was no bluff
She actually expected us
To remember this stuff.

You can't be serious
Oh no, what a mess
The tension was mounting
And we were sweating from stress

Well she was dead serious
And laid that to rest
As a smile filled her face
She passed out the test.
