> Now I sit me down in school

>  
> Our hair can be purple, orange or green,  
> That's no offense; it's a freedom scene..  
> The law is specific, the law is precise.  
> Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.  
> 
> For praying in a public hall  
> Might offend someone with no faith at all..  
> In silence alone we must meditate,  
> God's name is prohibited by the state.  
> 
> We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,  
> And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks...  
> They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.  
> To quote the Good Book makes me liable. 
> We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,  
> And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King.

> We're taught that such 'judgments' do not belong..  
> 
> We can get our condoms and birth controls,  
> Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles..  
> But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,  
> No word of God must reach this crowd.  
> 
> It's scary here I must confess,  
> When chaos reigns the school's a mess.  
> So, Lord, this silent plea I make:  
> Should I be shot; My soul please take!  
> Amen  
>  
> If you aren't ashamed to do this,  Please pass this on..  
> Jesus said,  'If you are ashamed of me,  I will be ashamed of you before my 
Father.'

> Not ashamed. Pass this on.
