Lyrics

Keep ‘Em Stupid

Here’s one for all the parents who have kids in public schools
And are concerned about what they might chance to read
When it comes to education you can trust my administration
To step in and meet this very pressing need

(chorus)
Keep ‘em stupid, ban that book! Don’t even let ‘em look
Take it down off the rack, throw it on the fire out back
Keep ‘em stupid, let ‘em grow, never knowing what they don’t know
Ban that book, no muss, no fuss, then they’ll always vote for us

Here’s a book that’s so outrageous, full of perverted pages
‘Bout two penguins trying to raise an egg as one
Do you believe that they’re both male? It’d turn poor Jesus pale
Get it out of here before it hurts someone

And don’t get me started baby on the history of slavery
And the theory there might’ve been racists in the south
All those lynchings never happened! And it was so good for black men
The kids don’t need to read about it now

Tell them Socialists and Commies that two women can’t be mommies
And it’s time their children finally understood
The sex you’re born to’s undeniable, you want to read, here’s a Bible
Those empty shelves are only there for your own good
