One day, a boy picked a battle,
And he fought with all his might,
Yet prior to the showdown,
He hadn't bothered to do his homework that night.
He didn't learn to sharpen a knife,
Nor did he learn any basic self defence,
Therefore he had no chance at saving his own life,
Let alone have time to ask for a buddy's two cents.
He perhaps could've at least learnt
Some proper punching techniques
To keep him from getting badly hurt.
He had signed himself up for a war, for fun,
Without knowing how the hell to shoot a gun,
And wound up staring right down the barrel of one.
Next time, choose carefully
The fights in which you participate,
And educate yourself,
So that you don't end up losing a mate.
