Teacher do you know what you teaching me A mind that is searching for acceptability A soul that is trapped and trying to break free Oh no, it is only problems that you ever saw in me How often I was told I would never know victory When I look back you are the fool perhaps now you see You displayed your lack of tact or teaching ability And your bulling tactics made a victim out of me As you accused me of being a stupid monkey So all I did was bunk and smoke my weed tree And forgot my pain to which you added willingly Anyhow I thought that monkeys get to play in trees So why study, for a useless PHD Why turn out unfulfilled and a bully just like thee When in my drugs I found, the answers meaningful to me When they gave soft answers a whispering victory When they were a help in my escape from the likes of thee Yes I am the one who failed and I did it successfully So teacher what are you teaching me |

Well it seems that the teacher got through to you right? She taught you well I would say, as most teachers do, but too bad it felt like you were being bullied though. I think I would be strong about the use of drugs too - ah, maybe even a bit of a bully too.  |

I believe your intent was to show, that we can blame all we want, but the choices really come down to owning us... great perspective. |
