Every school stereotypes
when it comes to enrolling lets begin
There is Catholic schools all over the world
this is clearly an attack at our culture and beliefs
Trying to overturn Christian values
a direct attack at principle teachings
discrimination against facts remain
Hidden agendas when enrolling you say
we all know what requirements are to be met
if not happy plain and simple build a school that caters to your needs
Rather than attacking preaching unholy doctrine against baptism
in favour of the minority lets push the boat out here for some
whom try to change written law to suit ill will
Towards God's temple baptised with the cross
children are not the argument here
it's the heathens against the teachings of truth and good moral choice
Everything said and done not a catholic problem
its a pagan one not to teach your children right from wrong
this is every individuals choice face up to freedom
Oh I am a little metaphor
I love to play a word,
today I am a fortress on
Tuesday I’m a bird
On Wednesday I’m a simile
cos I’m like a train, storming
into history,to play this wordy game
On Thursday’s I push the boat out,
ploughing through the waves, then
Fridays I’m like a scimitar, slicing
through the raves
And if you catch me weekend, I
won’t hold a grudge, just take me
as you find me, wink, wink,
nudge, nudge, nudge.
The sea is rough and I never learned to swim
So I won't push the boat out
I won't push the boat out
I shall stay on shore and have a feast
Of delicious happy thoughts and plans
For treats and pleasures coloured pink
With my extraordinary friends and swap stories
About how we survived so far and feel proud.
Then maybe we shall play some cards or paint a picture
Perhaps sing a song filled with nostalgia and cry while
We celebrate each other with toasts made of sparkles
And effervesse with happy feelings and love for each other!
