Blueprints of School [Edited Version]

TV-dinner, but who would know?  Who? 

Whether we’re having steak or cockroaches, 

Tomorrow?  If you decide to file a missing person's 

 

Report we’ll deploy RCMP up and down the block. 

And, come what may, we’ll find him, on the road. 

We’ll bring him down to the station and book him. 

 

I don’t have patience for patients who are 

Resistant to treatment, shrieked the doctor, 

At 140-decibels in the super-market aisle. 

 

‘Off with their heads!’ screamed the little girl, 

Into a plush pillow and the men on 

The TV-screen screamed back, ‘Oh, baby!’ 

 

Ranting will get you far in this company, 

The CEO quietly said, and a man in search 

Of the Forever Bonus slid into home-plate.
