You taught me alphabet and technique
You baptized me in the cool creek
I think in English through and through
And all thanks to you

I inherited your calloused skin
And when I left, I thought I’d never sin
Independent, but not necessarily
Now on, the state will take care of me
Will take care of me

Who will get the last laugh?
A child’s smile moves up the graph
Render unto Caesar what is his
Ah, it is what it is

Now I’m a life force of my own
I can initiate another drone
Until it decides it can no longer sit
Then the state will take care of it
Will take care of it
