This has to be preserved for posterity. *shakes head* I found a stack of printouts in the corner of the hall during my last dance class -- evidently left behind from some school's rehearsal. An object lesson in why political correctness taken to its ultimate conclusion is a peculiarly modern form of torturing children. What on earth does this collection of nonsense mean? And how, pray tell, does one actually sing it??





REDDAM HOUSE SCHOOL SONG



We are free to be ourselves

And respect each other equally

Innovation nurtured all the way.



We share a common dream,

To be whoever we want to be,

Independent pride in who we are.



(Chorus)

Enriching each other's lives

Inspiring each other's minds

We shall give back

We shall give back



Unique in who we are

We challenge each other constantly

Succeeding in our life

Because we care

Positive we are



Initiate what we can be

Standing proud

This is the Reddam way.

Chorus x 2






I would give much to know why these poor kiddies need to respect each other equally (what's wrong with respecting a nice kid more than a bully?) and what the hell "initiate what we can be" is all about. If I were a kid given this sheet of, uh, lyrics, "give back" is exactly what I would be doing with it.
