Blame
Sirens shrieking, bells are ringing,
People screaming, children bleeding,
Someone thinks their life’s too hard,
Now there’s violence in the schoolyard.
Teachers teach without a clue,
Because no one knows what to do,
Bomb threat on the bathroom wall,
Now there are guns in the hall.
Terror and chaos in the schools,
Now only the violence rules.
Blame the game and blame the guns,
Blame the victim who tells and runs,
Blame the clothes and blame the press,
Blame the teachers for this mess.
Blame the father for the son,
Blame the rain and blame the sun.
Blae the mother who works too hard,
Blame the kids in the yard.
Blame the present, blame the past,
Blame the minds whose molds we cast.
Look inside yourself and see,
Who’s left to blame, just you and me.
When love’s left out of society,
Then violence and hate are all we see
