School's Dark Daze

Circle my words till I'm completely dumb
Erase all my anomalies
Brush away the crumbs
Abhor my creativity for neatness give me an A
Beauty's buds are clubbed and mugged
And choked by school's dark days

I talk to you of Shakespeare
Of beauty and of truth
You hammer me with logic
And algebraic proofs

I wonder why the sky is blue
I wonder why the earth revolves
You say there is nothing on this earth that X and Y can't solve

A tiny robin in a cage
Puts all heaven in a rage
A tiny robin in a cage
Puts all heaven in a rage

Tiny minds are trained to learn that yearning
For the playing fields of life will get you nowhere
Examinations are what count
Obsolete facts in large amounts
So give us another helping
We've got nowhere else to go

A tiny robin in a cage
Puts all heaven in a rage
A tiny robin in a cage
Puts all heaven in a rage

You made our lives a living hell
You butchered our brains so we'd never tell
But you forgot that school's dark days do end
And life's rich reward is the schoolboy's friend
