lyrics
Lyrics:
People will think that I’m a slob
My room smells so bad it’ll spark a mob
Has it always been this way
Did the teacher brush his teeth today?
Skip Utopia on your family trip
‘Cause one whiff o’ this’ll make you flip
Brains are rottin’ in our schools each day,
‘Cause they’re preaching instead of teaching today.
Preaching to deny common sense,
Just vote like you’re told, even if it’s dense
Now Bobby can’t use a microscope,
And Mary can’t even spell the word hope
Programmin’ kids like they’re “iRobots”
Makin’ sure they can’t be astronauts
Meant to stunt innovation,
So they’re stuck under your nation
Skip Utopia on your family trip
‘Cause one whiff o’ this’ll make you flip
Brains are rottin’ in our schools each day,
‘Cause they’re preaching instead of teaching today.
Dumping garbage down their throats
Like it’s their veggies; swallow our quotes
You’re “F’d” if you disagree
‘Cause they just want you to be a zombie
Skip Utopia on your family trip
‘Cause one whiff o’ this’ll make you flip
Brains are rottin’ in our schools each day,
‘Cause they’re preaching instead of teaching today.
Brains are rottin’ in our schools each day,
‘Cause they’re preaching instead of teaching today.
