You Teachers Assume

The only student with a hand down in class

The one in the back

She’s trying to listen

She’s staying on track

 

The boy in suspension

He’s nothing but trouble

In a week there will be another fight

His consequences will double

 

The kids in the corner

They always wear black

They are always watched close

An eye on their back

 

Teachers oh teachers you do not understand

These students are merely different versions of man

They may be different, you may think they aren’t right

But you probably couldn’t even last in their shoes for just one night
