"Individualism"

Four individuals begin their life at Crestfallen Comprehensive:

Purple Mohawk, a pin for every sin on his thin body,

More hair than skin, baggy size, dimmest of the five,

Long braids without the bells, his belly hangs like a bell,

Stone faced yet honestly evasive, the shortest of the bunch,

You need to be like us and you need to study;

You will fail, will die, be poor and a no body

Ready for school, ready for life, no uniform?

Come back when you know how to dress!

Don't need to know bills, driving or insurance

Don't speak when I speak, don't hold up your endurance

Don't fight us, you'll lose, just some reassurance:

We teach you, We help you, lest you fail then it's your fault

Don't fight like animals, talk it out like men,

Issues, what issues? Sort them out yourself!

Don't swear, don't spit, do not defend,

Issues, what issues? Don't bring your own filth

Perfection and order, grey walls and small corridors

We'll begin Monday hate, our rules are smart,

Girls and boys equal profanity all on floors

Separation, segregation, keep the genders apart,

Don't give up near the end; don't take rest too far

Losing hair; gaining stress? Then a C for you;

Don't cry in the toilets; don't smoke a cigar

Fight through the work or else a C for you,

Adults of all ages, the wisest of us all,

Clean clothes and clean face and clean personality

We have no names but Sir, Mrs. Miss and doctor,

You looked like a circus, but now you look normal

You're real now; you've impressed us now,

You're not like the working-class scum,

You're a hero, an idol, someone to follow,

You're a notch above the rest, an A above them,

Shaven face, clean cut, white top, black trousers, polished brown shoes,

Shaven face, clean cut, white top, black trousers, polished brown shoes,

Shaven face, clean cut, white top, black trousers, polished brown shoes,

Shaven face, clean cut, white top, black trousers, polished brown shoes,

Four students end their life at Crestfallen Comprehensive.
