the kids don't care

the kids don't care they say

strap them down with boulders

place flames upon their shoulders

cause the kids don't care


the code has faded somewhere

all the punitive measures

tied to worthless treasures

when the kids don't care


the kids don't care we see

when we fill them up with pap

who's the queen and who's the sap?

when the kids don't care.
