YESTERDAY THE SCHOOL WAS RED, by                    
Last Line: We'll make a snow king in the yard and have the greatest fun
Subject(s): Schools; Snow


YESTERDAY the school was red,
But now it's dressed in white;
The fences are the same; ''" all night
The Snow King worked while we were fast asleep in bed.
He said, "I'll make the world below
So white and new, the children will not know
Just where the schoolhouse is, or find the way
To go, and they will stay outside and play."
And yet we found the way ''" he could not hide
The posts that stuck up straight beside
The road. But never mind, when school is done
We'll make a Snow King in the yard and have the greatest fun.
