lack of better stimulation [02:58.00]I'm painting portraits of dysfunctional families [02:59.50]With gloomy faces rockin [03:01.13]Don't Worry Be Happy t-shirts and [03:02.66]You're assuming I'm tasteless [03:03.81]You misconstrue it but your babies will embrace it [03:06.87]The basic essentials of a very bitter young man [03:09.90]That kicks rusty soda cans [03:11.27]And walks on decrepit bricks [03:12.78]With a permanent pair of headphones [03:14.26]Trying to make these lectures stick [03:15.93]I'll let the protestors picket [03:16.98]Like they are going to make a difference

[04:05.09]Not to mention tainted urine samples [04:06.68]And the attention span of a second-grader [04:08.13]More fascinated with building blocks [04:10.14]Than wasting time stressing his daily lesson
