Dónal Campbell I am not Stupid!
What chance do I have? Where will I go in life? If every time I try? My life is filled with strife. No need for homework No need to study No need to achieve For you son are a dummy Each time I ask a question I already know the answer Why bother son For you are stupid You know why you failed? Of course you do Because look in a mirror And see that you are stupid You cannot go to collage That is for smart people The way you are going You will only clean stables Pursue not books Pursue not knowledge Pursue not fortune For you there is only failure It is not your fault son Some are just borne dumb But you will survive Even being stupid I know not what success is I know not achievement I know not love I know not respect I know of guilt I know of fear of failure I know of terror I know of sorrow But I also know I am not stupid I am not dumb I am not alone Several scores of years Took me along my path A wife by my side Books under my arms Knowledge is power Fear overcome Determination for success Thirst for pride A long road A high mountain Downhill side Filled with pride I say to all Break the chains Use your mind Never be ashamed Success is yours Do it on your own Choose your own path And never EVER look back |
