Jonathan Kozol Was Right... Lyrics
i read a book the other day about public schools
in our nation
an indictment of our prevailing caste system
it seems so many things i've taken for granted
others cant access at all
i ditched computer class while others had no
books
i learned to hate my halls, there's holes in
walls in schools right in my town
serving the rich, keeping the lower classes down
what do i mean by this statement?
it seems only too clear with your english class
in a bathroom
how well do you think you'd fare?
i read of schools so overcrowded no room could be
saved
not auditoriums, cafeterias or closet space.
a school's income is determined by property tax
and how much money can you get from poor mexican
and black families trapped in slums
poor kids need the most attention
but since they're untaxable they get none
and because the system sucks when the kids grow
up
they'll have to send their kids back into the
system that fucked them
it's a cycle that for years has not been broken
there's a name for this it's social reproduction
and we maintain this caste system by letting them
enforce it
we're all flowers growing in a garbage can
the teachers tell their kids
but how can a flower grow when the sunlight's
blocked by the lid?
disribute property tax more fairly at least
that's a start
cuz little flowers can't grow in the darkness
they need everything we've got.
