Idiocracy! Ain’t it a shame?
Idiocracy! Life ain’t a game!
Our choices shape our future—
To make them, we must be sure!
Idiocracy! Please use your mind!
Idiocracy! No time to guess blind!
When life’s a joyous ramble,
Why lose it on a gamble?
Oh, read a book, or two, or three,
Ask what is, and what might be!
Don’t let the loudest voice prevail,
When quieter truths will tip the scale!
A spark of thought, a careful ear,
Can keep the muddled path from here!
Idiocracy! Turn on the light!
Idiocracy! Think left and right!
A fact is more than chatter,
And truth is what will matter!
Idiocracy! Don’t drift away!
Idiocracy! Learn something today!
The road is wide and winding,
But wisdom’s worth the finding!
Oh, read a book, or two, or three,
Ask what is, and what might be!
Don’t let the loudest voice prevail,
When quieter truths will tip the scale!
A spark of thought, a careful ear,
Can keep the muddled path from here!
Not every shiny new notion
Deserves your full devotion!
Not every flashing banner
Is worth your full-time scanner!
Stand up and say with flair,
“There’s got to be a better way there!”
With reason as your lantern bright,
You’ll outshine every pattern tonight!
So sing it loud, but sing it wise,
With open hearts and open eyes!
The future’s not some distant land—
It’s built by every mind and hand!
Idiocracy! Let’s break the spell!
Idiocracy! Think well, think well!
For though the joke’s enduring,
A brighter end’s assuring!
Idiocracy! Step into the light!
Idiocracy! Make your mind burn bright!
