Said No Word

Kayak

Compositor: Ton Scherpenzeel

There, behind the fence of your memories
Life and times at school
Gone the tears now laughter breaks out when recalled
The laws, scholar's rules

So many times you've been hurt
Feeling sad and small
So many insults you swallowed
But said no word, no word.

Teachers once presumed to be jokers
And those who swore as well
All appear to be human beings
Some might have been scholars themselves

So many times you've been hurt
Feeling sad and small
So many insults you swallowed
But said no word
No word
