Alice Bag – Programmed lyrics
Drifting back to my days at school
Where I was treated like a fool
I memorized what the teacher said
But no one ever asked what was in my head
I learned to color in the lines
I learned to spit back all the lies
Their values and their history
Were deposited in me
We’re on an ocean and the boat is sinking
No knowledge without critical thinking
Education be damned we are being programmed
Education be damned we are being programmed
I shine a light that’s not reflected
But I have got my own perspective
Fuck your Scantron tests and drills
I’m not a vessel to be filled
I’ll shove a number 2 pencil in your eye
If you refuse to step aside
We’re on an ocean and the boat is sinking
No knowledge without critical thinking
Education be damned we are being programmed
Education be damned we are being programmed
I shine a light that’s not reflected
Yes I have got my own perspective
Where I was treated like a fool
I memorized what the teacher said
But no one ever asked what was in my head
I learned to color in the lines
I learned to spit back all the lies
Their values and their history
Were deposited in me
We’re on an ocean and the boat is sinking
No knowledge without critical thinking
Education be damned we are being programmed
Education be damned we are being programmed
I shine a light that’s not reflected
But I have got my own perspective
Fuck your Scantron tests and drills
I’m not a vessel to be filled
I’ll shove a number 2 pencil in your eye
If you refuse to step aside
We’re on an ocean and the boat is sinking
No knowledge without critical thinking
Education be damned we are being programmed
Education be damned we are being programmed
I shine a light that’s not reflected
Yes I have got my own perspective
