The kids were sat down and told what to think.
Their colourful minds turned to black ink.
They were told what to write.
And told what to do
When one tried to dream, they got put down
Told their mind should not wander from the ground.
The shaky ideas they had were thrown into a bin
Told they were much too young to invent with them.
So the kids were told they should not play
They were told they should not imagine
They were told they should not believe the ideas their young minds make.
And now the kids sit in class
Their assigned seat trapped their minds which once had wings
