The sign on the lawn goes down
The human real estate moves in
Picket fences erected over landfill
Theyll ignore as theyve been taught
And theyll always do as theyre told
And theyll never make waves
The kids will go to school
And adults will go to work
And there theyll have the daily lesson reinforced
Born in the middle
Stay in the middle
Die in the middle
Free thought succumbs to autonomy
Its nothing new
