Stop Stealing My Imagination

Stop stealing my
imagination
Leave me some
room; don’t show me everything too soon
Stop stealing my imagination.
I can think for myself
Stop stealing my
imagination
Give me some
credit; I don’t need that much help to get it
Stop stealing my
imagination. I can think for myself
Do you think I’m
stupid? Do you?
Incapable of
figuring anything out
Do you think I’m
an idiot? Do you?
Not knowing what
anything’s about
Unless you spell
each word for me, point out every clue
Do the work for
me--treat me like a fool
Stop stealing my
imagination
Leave me some
room; don’t show me everything too soon
Stop stealing my
imagination. I can think for myself
Stop stealing my
imagination
Give me some
credit; I don’t need that much help to get it
Stop stealing my
imagination. I can think for myself
Do you think it’s
so difficult? Do you?
To put your point
across
Do you think it’s
impossible? Do you?
To make sure your
message isn’t lost
The repetition
assaulting me is driving me insane
Your attitude’s
insulting me. Who gave you the only brain?
The movies, the
papers, the news
Are equally
guilty of lowering the curve
And the most
disturbing thought
Is that maybe we’re
getting what we deserve
We need an
understanding for the good of all concerned
If we start
demanding more, then everyone can learn
Stop stealing my
imagination
Leave me some
room; don’t show me everything too soon
Stop stealing my
imagination. I can think for myself
Stop stealing my
imagination
Give me some
credit; I don’t need that much help to get it
Stop stealing my
imagination. I can think for myself
