Rehabilitation
We welcome you to your new home
We hope to scare you straight.
Plan on staying with us a while
as we determine your fate.

To earn a visit with your mom
you will have to cooperate
in order to share a story with us
you must learn to motivate.

By flapping your arms wildly
and being chosen to relate
you will get to see your mother
on the days we designate.

You must also sing our silly songs
if you plan to graduate
In other words become a puppet
so that we may dominate.

You will have to learn how to obey
instead of trying to deviate
'cause we have methods of controlling you
and plenty of drugs to medicate.
