lyrics

(Verse 1)
Welcome in kids, take a seat. Class will begin shortly.
Young kid, wondering, day dreaming, stumbling
In science class, say what is this?
Sitting next to the baddest chick
Look back and she bites her lip
Got me freaking out, yeah look at me dick
Can’t focus, I’m hopeless
But what sticks out when I wrote this
Is that the teacher was bogus
He said, “you know kids
How we got here
Evolution or a designer?
Let’s look back at the big bang
Either method gets the same thing”
Like hold up, what’d you say?
Intelligent design ain’t the same thing
As evolution, which pretty much has been proven
Don’t make me make this stupid,
You fool kids, I know what you doing?
So I’m chop (chop) and screwing
Everything that you ruined
Then I turn back to the fine dime
Come on girl, it’s lunch time
I got tea carton and some chicken tenders
I’m sorry folks if all this offends ya

Hook (2x)
Preacher, preacher, fifth grade teacher,
You can’t reach me, my mom can’t either,
You can’t teach me, you, you can’t teach me

(Verse 2)
Go to church, gotta give a donation
Is this what I gotta do to earn salvation?
Look at the priest, he’s salivating.
12 year old boy in the back, buck naked
Am I unholy, thou hath forsaken?
Acting crazy like I rap for satan
Don’t believe him either, but you’re fascinated
In the way my rap tracks, grab a nation
Pin ‘em down, now I have ‘em pacing
Worried that I’ll destroy the fakeness
Fake love, from a hating racist
Hates the gays and all the atheists
Preaching love in your face, defacing it
Say they did good, egos inflating quick
But ethos, is close to the most amazing, it’s
Sad, that I’m bad, for living out a good life
And it’s sad that this fad, made me live without a good wife
You’re just misunderstood, right?
Front of the room and I look like..

Hook (2x)
Preacher, preacher, fifth grade teacher,
You can’t reach me, my mom can’t either,
You can’t teach me, you, you can’t teach me

(Sample – Eminem)
But sometimes the shit just seems
Everybody only wants to discuss me
So this must mean I'm disgusting
But it's just me, I'm just obscene
No I'm not the first king of controversy
I am the worst thing since Elvis Presley
To do black music so selfishly
And used it to get myself wealthy
(Hey!!) There's a concept that works

(Verse 3) (T.D.)
I’m one of 20 million white rappers that emerged
Up until this point I really tried to diverge
And stay away from the feelings, know how they get hurt
But this time I throw it all to the birds,
You can treat me how you want because I’m Mr. Absurd
But in the end, you hang and dangle onto every word
I’m teaching you a lesson that you may not have heard
I’m still a moral person who don’t pray to the lord
You know I got more morals than you could ever afford
I’ll write a paycheck so you can all be ignored
But until that time, no, I ain’t going to war
Living my life, in this world to explore,
And no I won’t be your..

Hook (2x)
Preacher, preacher, fifth grade teacher,
You can’t reach me, my mom can’t either,
You can’t teach me, you, you can’t teach me

(Skit – Richard Feynman)
One of things that my father taught me beside physics, whether it’s correct or not
Was a disrespect for respectable, for certain kinds of things
For example, he’d sit me on his knee, and he’d open a picture
And there was a picture of the Pope, with everybody bowing in front of him
He’d say ‘now look at these humans,’ he’d say, here’s one human standing here
And all these others are bowing, now what is the difference?
This is the Pope and those are the ordinary people, he hated the Pope,
And he’d say ‘the difference is epaulettes,’ not in the case of the Pope,
Maybe it was a General, it was always the uniform, the position
This man has the same human problems, he eats dinner like anybody else
He goes to the bathroom, he has the same kinds of problem as everybody
He’s a human being, why are they all bowing to him?
Only because of his name and his position
Only because of his uniform, not because of something he especially did
