Prey In School Lyrics

Locked inside
prison with no bars
American High School
You're here to learn the rules
Learn to conform
Learn to obey
Live by the bell
Do as they say

Forced into a mold
Of Middle class ideal
Productive worker/student
Someone else's pawn

If you dissent
Dare to rebel
The authorities will send you
To institutional hell

Homogenized
Socialized
Individuality
Stigmatized

Sent to a reform school
"special" learning institution
Christian concentration camp
Private psychiatric prison

Parents, shrinks and counselors
Think you have a problem
It's called self expression
Natural youth rebellion

You have no more rights
under their control
pump you full of drugs
will brainwash prevail

Society's last chance
to grind you down
will you make it to 18
If your mind is strong
