The school system is designed
To mass produce factory slaves
They don’t want to educate you
Or want you to take drugs at raves
Even though that would do you good
The damage has already been done
You had a lobotomy years ago
Now you don’t remember how to have fun
But fun is different from happiness
Which comes from achieving success
Thanks to our conditioning
We settle for less and less
Most of us are content in any job
At least we don’t have to think
The government does everything for us
All we have to do is drink
That is the way of the world
You will never change it now
So be thankful you’re a slave
You have the brains of a cow
Watch football and game shows
Titillate yourself to death
By watching corny soaps
You don’t deserve your breath
Mind you it’s not entirely your fault
Your parents sent you to school
They didn’t know they’re experts
At turning a genius into a fool
But after reading this poem
Now you have no excuse
Why don’t you read a book
Or get in touch with your muse?
For everyone is unique
We all have something to give
Being a walking texting zombie
Is not a decent way to live
Sure it may take some time
To find out what you’re good at
But just in making the effort
You will be less of a lazy prat
So get your finger out your arse
Find some inspired inspiration
You have to reprogram yourself
From your limited education
We also need a new curriculum
To stop our kids from numbing out
Let them each follow their passion
Then teachers won’t have to shout
If the schools can’t provide that
Then we need to home school
A stupid child should be the exception
Instead of the modern rule
Switch the televisions off
That cause a black hole in the brain
Let’s lead the critical thinking revolution
Make ‘Shite Britain’ great again
Cheers!
