Mr. Seuss - The Beaten Track lyrics

It's the nerded wizard wording sicker verses never heard Simultaneously k**ed a couple pebbles with a bird Being that I've learned to covet roaming from the herd It's a**ured that it is worth the isolation I've endured To pure-hearted beatniks I hold in high esteem I admire individuals a**ailing up a stream Eliminating “dream” from the language that we speak It's implying limitations to elation we achieve It was predetermined I excel in this domain With two musician parents it's apparent they're to blame But stubborn imperfections had me move against the grain Took the trail with lesser travel from the family I came In busting out the frame, I've been freely in pursuit Of my studies to improve the future of tomorrow's youth But still I pay my dues to the pedigree that raised me Every verse a tribute to the talents that they gave me I won't concede, they won't relieve Joy is the seed that trumps all the needs A decade and a half into life and I knew where I was headed The young jock chopped fantasies that embedded Into dreams when I dreaded the a**ignments presented But knew that there was way to reach to those that resented What was thrown onto chalkboards, warned if they talked more Kids full of keys never taught to unlock doors Now we block core beauties of youth And the long time experts declare that the truth Is they need more time at a desk The school should address what is standard in tests And the rest is a waste, frankly I detest It's proven that activity is vital for success So oppress all the cuts to education of the arts Intelligence is rooted where the innovation starts Expression of the heart brings a power to the mind To be harnessed in a manner those without would never find
