poor little fool--song lyrics

poor little fool
what you never learned in school
when your daddy hits your mommy with his hand
you'll never really understand

poor little fool
trying hard to be so cool
you never wished to tell your boyfriend no
now you feel your little baby grow

you never learned to speak up for yourself
your self-esteem is sitting on a shelf
and you go along with the crowd
where no thinking is allowed
poor little fool

poor little fool
what you want just makes you drool
the stars all say you're nothing without bling
but you never want for anything

you never learned to open up your eyes
you're far too scared to realize
the propaganda seeping through your head
never matters when your dead
poor little fool

poor little fool
you only learned to be so cruel
because that's what was expected of you
and you accepted lies and not what's true

they send you off to die for others' lies
they fill your head with fear so you wont cry
when your gun explodes a little baby's brain
no one ever did explain
poor little fool

you never learned the golden rule
when you went to Sunday School
poor little fool
