The Educational Show


Across the room the teacher paces

Throughout the class the students start to lose their patience 

What is the point the students ask 

The teachers response is that you must know this to pass

Will I ever need this in life is what we want to know

Well it is part of your educational show

We don't want to just act 

We want to actually learn what is important and that is a fact

This rambling and fretting is getting us no where

It is getting old and the rest of the world is not waiting for us to get there 

We need to change the way we teach

But who is it that we can beseech

Well the students of course

We need to need to be able to move with a strong force

Not this longing for this educational show to end
