Subject: REAL DRUG EDUCATION

Message-ID: <2a540n$fkj@nic.umass.edu>
As a demonstration of the pap foisted off on the
American public as ``Drug Education'' by the failed D.A.R.E. program
(Drug Abuse Resistance Education), I am posting these ``poems'' taken
from the D.A.R.E. curriculum and officer's training guide
Copies of the D.A.R.E. material are available if you are willing to cover
copy and delivery costs ($26.29 in U.S.) I encourage activists and educators
to obtain copies of these curriculums for use in arguing against this
waste of our public resources, and danger to our free minds.

The DARE song... lyrics by M. Wagman .... music by J. A. Tartaglia
The world's a different place
Where life's become a race
And unlike the world of past
Our kids grow up too fast
`Cause what they see in store
Is threats of bombs and war
And that deadly game they're taught
That happiness is bought
So the children of today
Have no time for child's play
And they feel they're alone
Even strangers in their home
So to hide their pain and tears
They destroy their youthful years
Giving up love and hugs
And escaping into drugs
And if we say we won't help
Because the problem isn't mine
Then it's more than just a shame
Our lack of caring is a crime ... so
{chorus}
Dare to keep a kid off drugs
Dare to keep a kid off dope
Dare to give a kid some help
Dare to give a kid some hope
Help us
Another DARE song
Today, while we're still young
Before we know the score
We're caught up in a battle
We're victims of a war
Life gets so confusing
Can't tell heroes from the thugs
When our musicians and physicians
And our atheletes fall to drugs
The choices that we have to make
Aren't what our parents had
Not like TV, life's hard to tell
The good guys from the bad
Starting now let's take a stand
And help each other out
Let's learn the ways of saying "no"
That's what D.A.R.E.'s about
We dare ... to keep off drugs
We dare ... to just say "no"
We dare to make this pledge
And let our minds and bodies grow
Wanna sneak some beer? (kids) Just stand clear!
Wanna smoke some dope? (kids) Just say "nope"
Wanna take a hit? (kids) No thanks, I gotta split
DARE tells us so
It's our right to say "no"
Wanna try some crack? (kids) no way Jack!
Got some uppers you might like... (kids) take a hike!
Do you wanna get high? (kids) walk on by!
DARE tells us so.
It's our right to say "no"
Wanna pop a lude? (kids) No Way, Dude!
Wanna snort a line? (kids) no thanks, I'm fine!
PCP will thrill you (kids) man that stuff can kill you!
DARE tells us so
It's our right to say "no"
Brian
