Color Within The Lines
Believe the Bible
Abide by the commandments
Read our history books
That is what happened
Follow school rules
Color within the lines
Work endless hours to survive
Follow these laws
Listen to the news
Believe what you're told
Become numb and mindless
Don't think for yourself
Pass this knowledge around
Your mind is inundated
Brainwashed
Controlled, conditioned
Conformity
