Lyrics State Ed I am not a score State Ed You hurt me to the core There is nothin common or standard bout me. (Ref. Common Core, Learning Standards & Standardized Testing) Oh State Ed Please let me be History tells us bout a march On Washington, DC But now weve got a different King And we dont like his dream Reform or Progress Call it what you will We have Had our fill State Ed I am not a score State Ed You hurt me to the core There is nothin common or standard bout me Oh State Ed Please let me be Day in and day out We prep for your tests Filling in bubbles And learning how to guess Using number two pencils No stray marks allowed Is this supposed to Make us proud? State Ed I am not a score State Ed You hurt me to the core There is nothin common or standard bout me Oh State Ed Please let me be The only Charlotte that (Ref. Charlotte Danielson) I want my teachers to have read Is the one named Bronte (Ref. Charlotte Bronte, author of Jane Eyre) And the one spellin words on a web (Ref. Charlotte from Charlottes Web) Im not ready For college or career (Ref. buzz words in the Regents Reform Agenda) But Im not worried I wont be there for years (Ref. Im ten!) State Ed I am not a score State Ed You hurt me to the core There is nothin common or standard bout me Oh State Ed Please let me be Bridge You call them cut scores (Ref. Scores that change every year...what is passing?) But they just cut us down Make those levels high enough And in em we will drown Youre making our best teachers Run right out of town It should be the other way around State Ed I am not a score State Ed You hurt me to the core There is nothin common or standard bout me Oh State Ed Please let me be State Ed Please set us free
