Tell 'em, "Say no to drugs" 
"Substances make you dumb" 
Then you say, "Give 'em some" 
Are you the Victim 
Of this experience 
Child experiment 
Teacher's predicament? 
You're in the system 

And if you don't walk the line 
You can walk the plank 
You older brother (government) 
Wants to control your mind 
You're more useful blank 

Medicate the kids 
Feathers turn to quills 
Pump 'em full of training fluids 
Powders and pills 
There's nothing you can't flush out 
And nothing you can't kill 

Why don't you just back off of us 
Before we go crazy? 
I'm gonna tell you, 
"No way, 
This ain't fair play, 
Just don't medicate me" 

Tell 'em, "Say no to drugs" 
"Substances make you dumb" 
Unless you get 'em from 
Someone who loves you 
One who knows best for you 
Paid for those tests for you 
Knows how to get you through 
When it's above you 
And you can't get on top 
Cause it's high to climb, 
You hear them saying, 
"Don't make me call the cops" 
Every other time 

Medicate that kids 
Feathers turn to quills 
Pump 'em full of training fluids 
Powders and pills 
There's nothing you can't flush out 
And nothing you can't kill 

Why don't you just back off of us 
Before we go crazy? 
I'm gonna tell you, 
"No way, 
This ain't fair play, 
Just don't medicate me" 

And there's a long line 
Flowing from prescription aisles 
Filed through legal means 
So we can alter the child 
For his protection 
Tie him to extension cords, 
This is the age of discipline 

Why don't you just back off of us 
Before we go crazy?
