young
people
mus’-‘e
not people who
could think in
who could talk in
who could walk in
the land
with head in high sky…
…that mus’-‘e why
the man them what mus’-‘e more man
than man
say
sit down and shut up
young people
mus’-‘e
a part of people who
just not smart enough people
to start a long sentence
to throw a bad ask question
what could land tough
in the hand
of the man them what mus’-‘e more man
than man
the one them who could stand
on bold bald crotches and say
sit down and shut up
young people
mus’-‘e
not people
who could be stink and
make newspaper ink
like the man them what mus’-‘e more man than man
the one them that does frown even when they
face down and they grace upside down
and they drop back pace renown
the one them that does sound
like the town is all about them...
...but young people is the problem
the one them that does drown dreams
the one them that does clown and stroke
while
young people
have to crawl up slippery slope
have to bawl at jokes
have to bolt they own eye ball
have to play dumb and stay broke
and
sit down
and
shut up
