"I Don't Like Mondays" by the Boomtown Rats

The silicon chip inside her head
Gets switched to overload.
And nobody's gonna go to school today,
She's going to make them stay at home.
And daddy doesn't understand it,
He always said she was as good as gold.
And he can see no reason
'Cause there are no reasons
What reason do you need to be shown?

Bowling for Columbine : a movie about the murder of pupils by their peers
at Columbine High School a few years ago.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bowling for Columbine is a documentary film written, directed, produced by
and starring Michael Moore. It won numerous awards, including an Academy
Award for Best Documentary Features, the César Award for Best Foreign
Film.[1] It received praise as well as criticism for its genre and claims.
The film opened on October 11, 2002, and it brought Moore international
attention.
If anyone uses this material, or has more ideas, I'd be happy to hear about it.
