Verse Chorus Verse

The never-ending refrain
Verse-you can do this
Chorus-you can't do that
Verse-you will do this, you will do that


Education

Is education a vice?
Or does it grip you like one?
To  be so institutionalised
You cannot see a way out

Freedom or imprisonment
Lost in a sea of textbooks
Enough money to escape
But escape to where?
To destitution?
Imprisonment?
The escape of the bottle?

Something which has never occurred to me
But what choice did I have?
Keep calm and carry on?
Now that just sounds like a contradiction in terms
Get angry and dig your feet into the ground!
