Teachers Have Enough to Do
Masking government intrusion with false anxiety
That children can no longer be safe
When there is more than average cheek on their face.
Perfect bodies with no room for flaw
Being individual soon to be against the law
While serving us the lies with sugar
We edge quickly to the makings of a Fuhrer.
On the news and in the magazines
children know too much about the scene
Those who think they know the best
and make the rules for the rest
While they sit in judgment and hypocrisy
sucking out their fat with the ease of surgery
Telling your child he isn't good enough to learn
When their body fat isn't quickly burned
And the privileges they have and waste
With the utmost style and taste
Thrown around with ignorance and bliss
While your child struggles for the education they missed.
