Ride
A dusty room of artefacts
The aged history stored in the racks
The teacher never once looked young
Missed the letter that goes unsent by her son
Give us each day our daily dread
And feed the nightmares that terrorise our bed
Sit at your desk turn face the back
And repeat the lesson dressed head to toe in black
Self elected principal
Feed from my hunger after school
Educate my naïve mind
And leave my childhood behind
Breath smoke into my asthma lungs
Lick me with your acrid tongue
Taint the blood within my veins
And compromise every
We wash our hands with dried out soap
Dry with waxed paper and scathe our hope
Punctuate lesson alarm
Dose all your students
With equal measures of harm
Join us in chorus for Lord's Prayer
Your hands can trespass and I will pay your fare
Involuntary volunteer
I'll harvest your evil
Smiling from ear to ear
Self elected principal
Feed from my hunger after school
Educate my naive mind
And leave my childhood behind
Breath smoke into my asthma lungs
Lick me your acrid tongue
Taint the blood within my veins
And compromise every
Thing with me
The aged history stored in the racks
The teacher never once looked young
Missed the letter that goes unsent by her son
Give us each day our daily dread
And feed the nightmares that terrorise our bed
Sit at your desk turn face the back
And repeat the lesson dressed head to toe in black
Self elected principal
Feed from my hunger after school
Educate my naïve mind
And leave my childhood behind
Breath smoke into my asthma lungs
Lick me with your acrid tongue
Taint the blood within my veins
And compromise every
We wash our hands with dried out soap
Dry with waxed paper and scathe our hope
Punctuate lesson alarm
Dose all your students
With equal measures of harm
Join us in chorus for Lord's Prayer
Your hands can trespass and I will pay your fare
Involuntary volunteer
I'll harvest your evil
Smiling from ear to ear
Self elected principal
Feed from my hunger after school
Educate my naive mind
And leave my childhood behind
Breath smoke into my asthma lungs
Lick me your acrid tongue
Taint the blood within my veins
And compromise every
Thing with me
