THE TRAINING CLASS
IT WAS ONLY ONE CLASS. CHIEF DON'T HAVE A HEART ATTACK. SO, I MISSED THE LADDERS CLASS, DON'T WORRY I'LL GET IT BACK. IT WAS ONLY ONE TRAINING CLASS. SO I MISSED THE HYDRANT SESSION, I CAN STILL HIT THE PLUG. CHIEF, LET ME RIDE THE ENGINE. IT WAS ONLY ONE TRAINING CLASS. SO I CAN'T DRAFT FROM A LAKE. I GUESS I SHOULD HAVE LISTENED, ABOUT THAT CLASS YOU TOLD ME TO TAKE. IT WAS ONLY ONE TRAINING CLASS. CHIEF IT WAS ONLY SCBA. HOW HARD COULD IT BE TO THROW ON AN AIRPACK AND TURN ON A COUPLE AIRWAYS. IT WAS ONLY ONE TRAINING CLASS. I MUST ASK "HOW HARD CAN IT BE ?" TO FIGHT A BLAZING FIRE OR SAVE A KITTEN FROM A TREE. IT WAS ONLY ONE TRAINING CLASS. I'M SORRY I HAD A DATE. HOW WOULD I HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THIS HORROR AND THIS FATE. IT WAS ONLY ONE TRAINING CLASS. CHIEF, IT IS ALL MY FAULT. I SHOULD HAVE GOT THE WATER FASTER, TO PUT THE FIRE OUT. IT WAS ONLY ONE TRAINING CLASS. I'M SORRY THEY HAD TO WAIT. BY THE TIME I TURNED ON THE AIRPACK IT WAS TO LATE. IT WAS ONLY ONE TRAINING CLASS. WHY DID IT TAKE SO LONG? OH THAT LITTLE BOY AND GIRL. WHAT DID I DO WRONG? IT WAS ONLY ONE TRAINING CLASS. BUT CHIEF, IT IS BECAUSE OF ME . THAT THE BABY BOY AND GIRL WON'T LIVE TO BE THREE.
IT WAS ONLY ONE TRAINING CLASS!!!
