Rebekah’s response to the Badman review

August 23, 2009 by Rebekah

When will you leave us?
When will we be free?
How long will we march?
How long will it be?

Badman why won’t you understand?

You think we need your guidelines
You won’t believe we’re right
Please leave us alone
We don’t want a fight

Badman please just listen!

You need us to prove we really are ok
To prevent us from danger
Help our education
Stop us being the stranger

Badman why can’t you see?

You don’t want us to exist
‘Cause we’re not the normal thing
Well we’re sticking with home education
Happiness, Fun, Laughing

Badman hear our protests!

Home education is right for us
And we’re coping just fine
We’re learning everywhere we go
In our own space and time

Badman these are our lives!

But if you won’t leave us!
If we can’t be free!
We’ll march until your walls fall down!
However long it’ll be!
