go to work, send your kids to school
follow fashion, act normal
walk on the pavement, watch T.V.
save for your old age, obey the law
Repeat after me: I am free

I’m not sure if this if the writer meant this to be cynical or an appeal to be content.

I read it as the latter.

    It sounds cynical to me. But definitely thought-provoking.

    What if there was another one somewhere that said:

    buck the system, beat your kids
    dress outrageously, grab attention
    walk down the middle of the street, do drugs
    spend your money, #^@% the law
    repeat after me: the chains suck.
