The Lyrics
The song is shown through the eyes of a fourth grader who goes head-to-head with a big dumb fifth grade bully in dodgeball.
Ever since I was in grade school
I've played the big red balls
From Fairhope down to Pleasant Grove
I must have beat 'em all
But I ain't seen nothing like him
In any Juvenile Hall
That big sweaty dumb kid
Sure plays a mean dodgeball
He stands back on his side
His mates bring him a ball
Grunting like a bulldog
Walks like a Neanderthal
He'll nail you like a hammer
Up against the wall
That big hairy ape boy
Sure plays a mean dodgeball
He's a Dodgeball Wizard
He's God's cruel joke
The Dodgeball Wizard
He's best left unprovoked
How does he do it?
(You got me)
How did he get so strong?
He's like some freak of nature
Hit puberty at age 10
Drives himself to 5th grade
Which he'll repeat again
Smokes himself a cigarette
In the bathroom stall
That big scary man-child
Sure plays a mean dodgeball
I thought I was
The star athlete in gym
But I just handed
My milk money to him
Even on the playground
He will win them all
And if I'm not careful
He'll hit me in...face
Always seems to catch them
Never seen him fall
That hideously grotesque bully
Sure plays a mean dodgeball
I've played the big red balls
From Fairhope down to Pleasant Grove
I must have beat 'em all
But I ain't seen nothing like him
In any Juvenile Hall
That big sweaty dumb kid
Sure plays a mean dodgeball
He stands back on his side
His mates bring him a ball
Grunting like a bulldog
Walks like a Neanderthal
He'll nail you like a hammer
Up against the wall
That big hairy ape boy
Sure plays a mean dodgeball
He's a Dodgeball Wizard
He's God's cruel joke
The Dodgeball Wizard
He's best left unprovoked
How does he do it?
(You got me)
How did he get so strong?
He's like some freak of nature
Hit puberty at age 10
Drives himself to 5th grade
Which he'll repeat again
Smokes himself a cigarette
In the bathroom stall
That big scary man-child
Sure plays a mean dodgeball
I thought I was
The star athlete in gym
But I just handed
My milk money to him
Even on the playground
He will win them all
And if I'm not careful
He'll hit me in...face
Always seems to catch them
Never seen him fall
That hideously grotesque bully
Sure plays a mean dodgeball

Not bad, Nick. It's a funny story, but your pacing needs work. You have a lot of extra syllables here and there.
Particularly liked the "He's like some freak of nature/ Hit puberty at age 10/ Drives himself to 5th grade/ Which he'll repeat again? lines.
