We have budget cuts
Schools getting shut down
teachers getting cut
Not enough books go
Home
resources real low
But they wanna point
fingers at Teacher for
why students failing
tests and classes
Yet the City Wants to
Build a $12,000 museum
based on Beer.
Stop pointing fingers
and fix the problem
that’s being addressed.
