TAnk

Verse 1
Scared and lonely in a new place
Seat of learning concrete not ivory towers
Working in new ways learning to think
Find out for yourself - go look it up
Make your own spoon, fork and knife
Carve out your initials on a certificate
If you even jump the first fence
You are nothing, until you count…


Chorus
Blink, Oh, and you’ll miss it
Rudimentary my dear Watson
Go write genre fiction
Its all you’ll amount to anyway
Why did you never make to the top ?
Why did you never make to the top ?


Verse 2
Never make friends you cannot break out of
There’ll always be one who’ll bite your bum
Who’ll find out your weak spot and exploit it
Gang up the others to make themselves look good
Walk away from anyone who holds their own
By following the latest ideas
Find out your own thoughts there in your unique head
They’ll be the ones that will make you


Chorus
Blink, Oh, and you’ll miss it
Rudimentary my dear Watson
Go write local history
Its all you’ll amount to anyway
Why did you never make to the top?
Why did you never make to the top?


Verse 3
When you’ve climbed the slippery slope
Remember there’ll still be the TAnk
The person who thinks they know everything
And that you’ve got to go their way
Fascists exist at every turn
You’ll know them by their glazed eye
Fighting for what is right and proper
Which only they know, and they won’t tell why


Chorus
Blink, Oh, and you’ll miss it
Rudimentary my dear Watson
Go write assessment targets
Its all you’ll amount to anyway
Why did you never make to the top?
Why did you never make to the top?
