He ate tangerines while the teacher lectured
On how Saturn just might have at least a hundred moons.
But he could run a fooball just as good as the Cowboys,
So he got a scholarship although he was the class buffoon.

With the boys he'd been wrestling, he'd cut up in the classroom
As a ruddy look of anger flushed the teacher's face.
And all the other students, they started laughing roundly
At the sanctions he would suffer for his acting out of place.

Raided desks and raided restrooms,
Causing trouble all the time.
Knows all the stats about the Cowboys,
But he's breaking the rules, out of hand and out of line.

When his Spanish teacher said to translate "amarillo",
He pointed to his jersey which was white and blue.
"Amarillo was a wetback, never played for the Cowboys,
Might have been an illegal who cleaned up the locker room!"
