All these years of education
They have just added to
All my heart’s frustration
More shortcomings of this nation
By simple little observations
Learned your fears, reservations,
And your recreations
But now I still have some questions
By now, I surely should know well
How and what makes you tick
Still, somehow I don’t, but
I know it all makes me quite sick
So, please, show me your world
So that I can understand
For even just a moment
To know what’s behind your reasons
Enlighten me, show me your world
