Boys and girls let me tell you a story,

Of a boy who was saved by his little brother Cory.

Six week holidays, he was messing with his mates,

When they walked past the house with the cast iron gates.

"odds on you, going in the house?"

Would he be a man or would he be a mouse?

One two three and they both said seven,

The boy then hoped he was going to heaven.

His mates told him then that he had to stay the night,

But the boy was scared that this would give him a fright.

But he opened the gates and knocked on the door,

but then ran off and his friends called him a bore.

They said he was a wuss and he wasn't in the group,

He was a little baby and he stank of poop.

Everyone at school suddenly ignored him,

Everyone hated the boy and never talked to him.

Weeks went by and he was beaten every day,

Yet he never told his parents because he didn't know what to say.

Then one day, the boy went to the train track,

Laid himself down on his purple n blue back.

After fifteen minutes, off waiting for a train,

He heard a familiar voice which ended all the pain.

"stop. Stop. Get off the track.

Please get off, please get off Jack."

His brother was calling, who was only five,

His brother was a hero cos he wanted Jack alive.

That is it, that's the end of my story,

But you just remember that little boy Cory.

He saved his brothers life just because he cared,

This is a message that should definitely be shared.

Think about others and how they feel,

Everyone's important, everyone's a big deal.
