No Child Left Behind

You say"No Child Left Behind"

That is a lie we're still divded

You have favorites you know

They run the class... their own personal puppet show

They pick what we do and don't

They complain you change

You don't respect our opinions or decisions

Our ideas are overshadowed by theirs

We fail it's our fault they fail we have to re-take it

Now you have to cheat and scam

All so our reputation can stay above

Teacher I feel cheated but you don't care

You scream equality but that's a lie

"NO Child Left Behind" that's been your motto but teacher it's a lie

Becuase the other group that aren't your favorites have been left behind

I love being able to call out teachers for what they do
