Dangerous Minds Page #9

I know, but... Oh, what the hell.

You're right.

You gotta be crazy to stay here

and teach these programmed classes.

There's no money.

It's killer work.

Why do you stay?

Why do I smoke? I'm crazy.

You need any more help?

No. Thanks.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Yeah. Bye.

This is the life

Everyone has to be somewhere

Oh

I am here

This is the life

This is the life

This is the life

'Cause this is my life

This is my life

Hi.

Well. Welcome back.

This is the 29th day,

the last day I have to come back.

So, am I still okay

for next term?

Yeah.

Did, uh,

did you come back because it was

your last day or did somebody...

ask you to come today

to talk me into staying?

Well, it was both, really.

See, 'cause I wasn't really sure

what I wanted to do...

until I heard that you

were leaving and...

'Cause up until then,

I don't know, I thought...

that you'd always be here

for me, you know.

You know, whenever I came back.

But then Raul tells me

that you're leaving...

just like that.

And I realized that this

was my last chance.

And I decided...

We decided that...

we're not gonna just

let you leave like that.

Yeah, we realized

like the poem said:

You can't give in.

"You can't go gentle.

- You got to rage against

the dying of the light."

- Yeah.

Yeah, you gotta go for yours.

You know that, right?

- Yeah.

- You gotta kick it in

and get it up.

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

No, no. Wait, wait. I'm not giving in.

Um, this is my choice.

I have no reason to "rage

against the dying of the light."

'Cause you're not

the one who's raging.

We're the ones who are raging.

See, 'cause we see you

as being our light.

- What?

- You're our Tambourine Man.

- Oh, I'm your drug dealer?

- You got the stuff, Miss J?

You're our teacher. You got what

we need. It's the same thing.

Come on, Miss J. All the poems

you taught us say you can't give in.

You can't give up.

- Well, we ain't giving you up.

- No way.

Now, listen, baby, we gonna have to

tie you down to the chair and gag you...

'cause you know

we want you to stay.

What you need to stay, girl?

You want a candy bar?

Okay, on the left and on the right,

a "Louanne, Louanne." Uh, here we go.

Louanne, Louanne,

Louanne, Louanne.

- Louanne, Louanne, Louanne, Louanne.

- Come on!

Louanne, Louanne,

Louanne, Louanne.

- You have to go first.

- I don't want to go first.

- Come on. You have to.

Ready? You go like this. Go.

- It go like this.

- This how you do it.

Go, Louanne. Go, Louanne.

Go, Louanne. Go, Louanne.

Go, Louanne. Go, Louanne.

Go, Louanne.

Let me see.

- Excuse me.

- Are you okay?

- Yeah.

- You want to sign my book?

- Yeah, I'll sign your book.

How'd they get you to come back?

They gave me candy

and called me "the light."

That'll do it.

I won't do you wrong

I'll do you right

You can roll with me

for the rest of the night

No need to fuss

'cause I don't wanna joke

Baby, sit right here

and let the chronic smoke

So hang around, love

And give it up

'Cause all the real "G"s

know what I'm thinkin'of

'Cause you wanna be down, down

so give it up

There's a party over here

So, baby, show your love

'Cause I got the gin and guice

Yeah

- You know that

You know that

- I got the gin and guice

Yeah

'Cause I got the gin and guice

Yeah

- I got the, I got the gin and guice

- Yeah

- I got the answer

- 'Cause I got the gin and guice

As I walk through the valley

of the shadow of death

I take a look at my life

and realize there's nothing left

'Cause I've been blastin'

and laughin'so long

That even my mama thinks

that my mind is gone

I really hate to trip

but I gotta loc

As they croak I see myself

in the pistol smoke

Fool, I'm the kind of"G"

the little homies wanna be like

On my knees in the night

Sayin'prayers in the street light

Been spending most their lives

livin'in a gangsta's paradise

Been spending most their lives

livin'in a gangsta's paradise

We keep spending most our lives

livin'in a gangsta's paradise

You spent so many nights

in heat

- And out of control

- Like that

Waiting impatiently to see

- What's under my clothes

- Like that

I just wanna take time

to get right into the point

Now you got your choice, girl

- To come and rock this funky joint

- Like that

Don't you take too long, baby

I'll be waitin'here

for you, baby, baby

Here's a gift

to you from me

Just you wait and see

It's the curiosity

- It's the curiosity

- Curiosity

- Do you wanna feel my body

- Like that

Girl, all night long, yeah

It's the curiosity

- Why not now

- Oh, yeah

- Oh, yeah

- It's the curiosity

For you, for me

It's the curiosity
