seb lowe - the education system lyrics
[verse 1]
the education system is not looking out for you
it won’t tell you why to do it, it’ll only tell you how to do
how to read the poem the examiner’s way
lord, imagine a kid had something original to say
tell aqa i’m not okay
i can write a f_cking essay
but still can’t remember what i did today
it’s out of date
if you don’t care the kids won’t care
you can tell it to the department of education
in their comfy office chairs
to just notice if you’ve a problem with focus
allow for some creative process instead of an algebraic hocus pocus
everybody closes their books when they’re home
because why the f_ck would they ever want to open them?
school’s not fun
not meant to be fun
how come for some it feels designed for them to face any challenge and overcome
to the ones who have a mind that exists outside numbers and letters
i pray the education system gets a little better
not talking about teaching about taxes
or s_x ed classes
i’m talking about a way to cater for all aims
you look at appeasing the masses
as though they’re one and the same
preparing them with something they might never think to use again because
[refrain]
the education system does not give a flying f_ck about you
no no no
the education system doesn’t give a f_ck about you
[verse 2]
school is rather uniform
start ’em early, teach ’em norms
a child is so naive in thought
they listen good and all conform
where boys can wear the trousers, jumpers
girls can get the blouses in
struggling kids are troublesome kids
we’ve got a medal for everything
teach you how to act, to talk
to work, to play, to dress, to walk
to fight for first
what you deserve is a telling off with a word of stern
you’re far too chatty
too bossy, too bratty
you’re so clever
take a star
tell god how grateful you are
cross your legs
shut your mouth
talk between yourselves but keep it down
verbal bully
wear a tie
words’ll hurt you
get in line
or get a job
you’ll be just fine
if you lower your expectations right
you’re in good health and decent mind
might do well in a life of crime
try to change the world, you can’t
we took your world and made it ours
we took your life and gave you a star
gave you freedom, a wage and a car
we gave you education
a wonderful place to start
pray to god, sing to god
tell him how grateful you are
[verse 3]
f_ck off
you whining little sh_t
politely shut the f_ck up
it’s your life, you’re gonna live with it, yeah?
did you forget what we taught you?
back when all of this was new?
wear a jumper, wear a blouse
wear a skirt, a shirt, a suit
and see the news
no teacher who made the rules
a devil who looks just like you
his brain is power and death and food
he feeds
his office is his guillotine
he took your soul and threw it out and laughed at you as you drifted in between
it’ll come so ever clear as your life is slowly sinking
he told you what to think
it was there that you stopped thinking
[refrain]
the education system does not give a flying f_ck about you
no no no
the education system does not care about you
no no no
[outro]
you can’t choose between english and maths
i bet the secretary of state for education can relate to struggles in class
to them, you are fools
don’t even get me started on private schools
