we don't need no educashen

we don't need no educashen, Betsy,
we don't need no fancy cars
we don't need no billionaires
betsy, just leave us all alone in our
deteriorating slums, our decrepit classrooms,
we don't need no extra pencils,
we don't need no extra books,
betsy, just leave us all alone, we can find
our way alone
betsy, walk the primrose path with the whites
and the wealthy, help them with their applications
to the ivys, Betsy,
just leave us all alone.
