|
There was a hearing |
|
The rules were broken by one |
|
Followed by another |
|
The evidence was presented |
|
An overwhelming list of infractions |
|
An overwhelming representation |
|
Of one's maladjustment to the system |
|
The hearing was about him |
|
About his attitude |
|
About his behavior |
|
He is, he represents |
|
No, he embodies the problem |
|
If he is expelled, the problem |
|
Will go away |
|
Responsibility |
|
Relationship |
|
Mutuality |
|
Our solution |
|
A person with a problem |
|
I believe there's no such thing |
|
As a person with a problem |
|
If there is a problem it's a problem with the system |
|
The system of home and family |
|
Of school and community |
|
He is not in this alone |
|
He is not the problem |
|
A reflection of the system |
|
A mirror image of ourselves and our work |
|
We acknowledge not all kids fit |
|
Our ancillary design |
|
And when they don't fit |
|
They become the problem |
|
The problem |
|
Expel the problem |
|
Make it go away |
|
Expel the problem |
|
Make it go away, make it go away |
|
Make it go away |
