LYRICS
Forget about subsidizing
… corn… or oil exploration
Realizing…
I yearn… for some real education
Tired of paying for the ignoramus
Hard to ignore the value in us
(instrumental interlude) Hey, Ignoramus!
Edumacation benefits all of us (Hey, Ignoramus! Edumacation — benefit to us. Come out of the ignorant fit… Edumacation = benefit)

“We don’t need no education”
Double negative reaction
When it’s obvious ya do
And, then sum, too
What you say just doesn’t add up
Is it half empty? What’s in your cup?

What about subsidizing
Are you realizing
The gain from an asset
The cost of an ass, yet…
And, lying… can’t you see the liability of your disability
Why promote being ignorant
Or being indifferent
To enlightenment

Nooooo, Ignoramus please don’t ignore us

After what you’ve said, I wonder what’s in your head?
How can you have any learning if you don’t know meet from meat?

“I am a stranger”
Stranger, I am
Stranger than you
An Alien?

“I come in peace”
A piece I am
More than a pwan
Are you?

“Take me to your leader and there will be a massive reward for you in eternity.”

This note in my pocket
Is to notify you
There is no intelligent life on Earth —
the third planet from the sun.

We’ll guarantee your eternity
While mine is in jeopardy
