Poisoning the Students' Minds

Oh the student Y has found a new vocation,
Poisoning the students' minds
The leaders by astute manipulation
Poisoning the students' minds
Big men bold men filled with sneering pride
Behind the smiling countenance they hide
Spiritual arsenic moral cyanide
They’re poisoning the students', poisoning the students', poisoning the
students' minds
There’s just one thing that they forgot to mention
The student hasn’t got a mind
So it’s safe to hold this great convention
The student hasn’t got a mind
But if our leaders hear this dreadful news
We are sure that their senses they would lose
So we’ll just let them go on thinking if they chose
They’re poisoning the students', poisoning the students', poisoning the
students' minds
They’re poisoning the students', poisoning the students', poisoning the
students' minds
Oh Uncle Will has sent away our brother
For poisoning the students' minds
But he’ll find out there’ll always be another
Poisoning the student’s minds
He’d rather have us stick to evening prayers
And stop meddling in national affairs
‘cause that doesn’t suit the millionaires
We’re poisoning the students', poisoning the students', poisoning the students'
minds
We’re poisoning the students', poisoning the students', poisoning the students'
minds
