Mommy what does hyper mean?
  Teacher says I'll never read
  She says I need to take a pill
  So I can learn to sit real still
    The microwaves did something to our brains
  We need to take these pills to help us change
    Please let me take them I don't want to be an idiot
  Ritalin will make me smart
  At least that's what my teacher said
  All the other kids take them, I think I am the only one
  I need something to slow me down
  I talk too much cuz I am dumb
    Mommy what's a deficit?
  I think it means that I can't sit
  Disorder of attention
  And I don't learn the lesson
    Mommy please help me see the light
  Don't you know my teacher's always right?
  Joey's starting on week 4
  He's not in trouble any more
  Susie's ending up week 9
  Now she's never out of line
    Please let me take them I don't want to be an idiot
  Now Mommy takes my Ritalin
  There's not enough for me she said
  All the other moms take them, I think it's not just mine
  I don't know if she's smarter now
  But at least she's feeling fine
