Herbert Nehrlich - Class Dummy

Did you hear of the dummy who cried
when the others went on their joy ride
they had counted to ten
and to do it again
there was 'one' who ran quickly to hide.

He had bothered the friendly old teacher
when he showed them a simple math feature
though his mind could not grasp
and the pupils all gasped
so they called him an ignorant creature.
