Thousands of kids stay home from school today
Cuz their parents feel the new curriculum is the wrong way
To teach about safe sex, transgenderism, homosexuality, and consent
The kids will learn to hate if they’re not taught to understand why
This education starts too late and we must not deny
That abstinence from school is not the way to learn
They’ll figure it out themselves; they’ll have nowhere else to turn
They’ll see it in the media / They’ll find it online
They’ll feel it in their bodies through intimate interaction
They’re gonna do it anyway
They’re gonna do it anyway
Curiosity doesn’t dissipate when it’s not satisfied
Temptation only grows stronger the tighter the leash gets tied
They’re gonna do it anyway
They’re gonna do it anyway
No matter what you do or say
They’re gonna do it anyway
You don’t own your child / She’s born into the wild
Free to make her own choices and choose her experience
Soon she’ll get the itch and if she starts from scratch
Her uninformed trials and error just might leave a scar
They’re not learning about evil / They’re learning about people
And things that exist naturally in the world
People who have feelings / People who want love
