LEADSUCKER LYRICS
"Every Child Left Behind"
America does not want intelligent kids.
They want them subdued, complacent.
They are our future, after all;
They want the path of least resistance.
Drop out of school and read some books
Save your mind and keep it open.
For what you lose is far more
Than what you gain.
There are no F's, only A's for effort.
Show up and you move on.
Good boys don't ask questions,
They shut up and blend in with everyone else.
Universities are corporations
Under the disguise of "higher learning"
Degrees are becoming like the American dollar,
Too many of them out there to be worth anything.
Just remember when you're working retail to pay off your debts
Just how great that piece of paper looks framed on your parents' wall.
How low can the bar go?
Low enough to let every child through.
It's little more than an obedience class,
Made to dull your imagination.
Dumb it down so no one's offended,
That way you'll accept watered-down versions
Of facts the rest of your life.
