The penguin

Black trousers and a black shirt

I feel like a stuffy penguin

Out of order and out of place

Somehow my hair got greasier

Black and warm like an oilslick

More and more like the penguin

Shiny and leathery 

Curved and soft

I feel like a stranger

In this here classroom

Teacher

Why can't you just leave me alone

I want to do art

Do music

Do what makes me happy

History and chemistry 

Don't do much for me

What a unique first verse. You should always try to do what makes you happy, maths was my downfall, I hated it.
