I Write the Tests, I Write the Tests by Barrylane55 published on 2013-03-26T02:51:01Z I Write the Tests, I Write the Tests (Barry Manilow, Barry Lane, Carol-lee Lane, Amy Ludwig Van Derwater) I write the tests that make the whole world fail, if you don’t pass we’ll put your school up for sale. I write the tests that make the whole world see our corporatized reality We stack the data just to monetize, kids education, so it’s no surprise, your school is failing and must privatize, and our stock begins to rise. I write the tests that really stunt our schools, don’t think or write or ask, just follow the rules. Forget the arts and curiosity, No need for a democracy. I write the tests and there’s no time for play, you will sit down and you will do what I say. For half the year it will be judgment day. Just watch your childhood melt away. I write the tests that keep the status quo. Buy them today. Watch our economy grow Don’t tell the emperor he has no clothes, just keep your students on their toes. Don’t tell the emperor he has no clothes, just keep your students on their toes. Genre Protest Song Comment by Stephanie Godby Gardner This one makes my heart sad.
