We Were the Fools

WE WERE THE FOOLS
Harvard, named after a minister
	Yale, started by a clergyman
	great foundations soon destroyed
	by evolutionists they employed
Our institutions had right intentions
	soon all of the signs
	pointed in the wrong directions 
A godless-radical fought a God 
	she didn’t think existed
	her invisible foe
	oh my, what she didn’t know
Like a witch on a broom 
	casting a spell 
	removed prayer from classrooms
Supreme Court agreed 6-1
	it surprised everyone
Is the Creator a spare tire
	only used in time of distress
	after society becomes a mess
Like Eve obeying the serpent
	we trusted government 	
Tossing children in a hot cauldron
	of deception and delusion 
	society was soon rewarded 
	with total confusion
We trusted everyone else
	but it always fails 
	now something smells
	especially our schools
	blame us, we were the fools
