Now I sit me down in school
Where praying is against the rule
For this great nation under God
Finds mention of Him very odd.
If Scripture now the class recites.
It violates the Bill of Rights.
And anytime my head I bow
Becomes a Federal matter now.
Our hair can be purple, orange or green,
That's no offense; it's a freedom scene
The law is specific, the law is precise
Prayers spoken alound are a serious vice
For praying in a public hall
Might offend someone with no faith at all.
In silence alone we must meditate
God's name is prohibited by the state.
We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,
And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks.
They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible
To quote the Good Book makes me liable.
We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen
And the "unwed daddy" our Senior King
It's "inappropraite" to teach right from wrong
We're taught that sure "judgments" do not belong.
We can get our condoms and birth controls
Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles.
But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,
Old rules like that offend the crowd.
It's scary here I must confess,
When chaos reigns the school's a mess
So, Lord, this silent plea I make:
Should I be shot: My soul please take!
AMEN
