Let's Do Something Real


I can only take so many tests

And do so much homework

I can only read so many books

And care about so many grades

 

People are dying

And kids need help

Education and medical care

Homes and nutrition

 

The needs are endless

And I have become restless

The classes have gotten old

I'm ready to do something real

 

Let's break down classroom walls

Let's learn by doing

Let's get out into the world

Let's do something real
