take drugs and stay in school

it starts out
with santa,
then
it morphs
into jesus.

and all along
your being told
what to do.

they tell you to study,
or else
you'll end up
on drugs.

so,
as a compromise,
after the drugs,
and after the studying,
you drink,
because
that's what your father
did,
and that's what his father
did.

then,
just after the rebellion,
they tell you to pick
a side,
left
or right, but
your wrong
either side.

our brains were lost
from the very first delusion
we were fed.

it's no wonder why
we are a nation
finding salvation
inside the church
of a pill,
just as the bottle
is emptied.
