He got Fred detention for calling Mrs. Abbott a whore

So they discreetly shoulder nudged him in the hall
Just enough to make him lose his balance and fall
And they'd disappear in the crowd before he'd noticed at all
Bettie could never make it to class before the bell would ring
Tardiness is an automatic detention the teachers couldn't do a thing
And waiting with the bullies he'd wondered what hell they'll bring
