    We're waiting every night
    To finally roam and invite
    Newcomers to play with us
    For many years we've been all alone
    We're forced to be still and play
    The same songs we've known since that day
    An imposter took our life away
    Now we're stuck here to decay
    Please let us get in!
    Don't lock us away!
    We're not like what you're thinking
    We're poor little souls
    Who have lost all control
    And we're forced here to take that role
    We've been all alone
    Stuck in our little zone
    Since 1987
    Join us, be our friend
    Or just be stuck and defend
    After all you only got
    Five Nights at Freddy's
    Is this where you want to be?
    I just don't get it
    Why do you want to stay?
    Five Nights at Freddy's
    Is this where you want to be?
    I just don't get it
    Why do you want to stay?
    Five nights at Freddy's, oh
    We're really quite surprised
    We get to see you another night
    You should have looked for another job
    You should have said to this place good-bye
    It's like there's so much more
    Maybe you've been in this place before
    We remember a face like yours
    You seem acquainted with those doors
    Please let us get in!
    Don't lock us away!

    The point on Patriarchy was a little flawed. Women were OFTEN expected to keep quiet by MANY men and households, and men were OFTEN dominant. But Queen Elizabeth the 1st is a classic example of how that wasn't always true. Women certainly had to STRUGGLE much more on a societal level for dominance, but they did have it, and that would not have been unheard of to Shakespeare, given that the monarch of his country was a woman. Society certainly DEFAULTED to male dominance, but woman played a HUGE role in the development of society, whether they were socially dominant or not. Juliet's mother shame's her refusal to marry, but defaults the convincing to her husband. His anger at Juliet is shared by his wife, she's simply not as aggressive in its expression. I do believe the society was Patriarchal by default, but certainly in a much more nuanced manner than expressed in this video: "Men had all the power and women were expected to be quiet and subservient." None of the women in this play do that. Lady Capulet agrees with Lord Capulet, but still calls him out for being too angry. The Nurse even steps between Juliet and her father and tells him to back off, and then of course Juliet, is hot with rebellion. I just think a more nuanced approach to this topic would have been more helpful and accurate, especially given how important this subject is. We can't fight a problem that is not accurately explained, and defaulting to male dominance still happens.

      Thank you for your passionate response to our video! Isn’t Shakespeare awesome?! As mentioned in this video, we only offered a brief discussion of the gender divide in the Bard’s time. We agree - it’s a topic that deserves closer attention because we still struggle with these issues today! Our full lesson on the theme of Gender in Romeo and Juliet has a more detailed explanation paired with key evidence. It’s available on our website - feel free to check it out!

    I don't know what I was thinking
    Leaving my child behind
    Now I suffer the curse and now I am blind
    With all this anger, guilt and sadness
    Coming to haunt me forever
    I can't wait for the cliff at the end of the river
    Is this revenge I am seeking?
    Or seeking someone to avenge me?
    Stuck in my own paradox, I wanna set myself free
    Maybe I should chase and find
    Before they'll try to stop it
    It won't be long before I'll become a puppet
    It's been so long
    Since I last have seen my son lost to this monster
    To the man behind the slaughter
    Since you've been gone
    I've been singing this stupid song so I could ponder
    The sanity of your mother
    I wish I lived in the present
    With the gift of my past mistakes
    But the future keeps luring in like a pack of snakes
    Your sweet little eyes, your little smile is all I remember
    Those fuzzy memories mess with my temper
    Justification is killing me
    But killing isn't justified
    What happened to my son? I'm terrified
    It lingers in my mind
    And the thought keeps on getting bigger
    I'm sorry my sweet baby, I wish I've been there
    It's been so long
    Since I last have seen my son lost to this monster
    To the man behind the slaughter
    Since you've been gone
    I've been singing this stupid song so I could ponder
    The sanity of your mother

    Shakespeare wasn't even good for his time and definitely doesn't compare to modern authors. I wish we could pick our own texts for our GCSE's.

      Because their job is to make us learn things that we'll never use atleast 5 times for the rest of our lives
      The useful things we do learn are just a slip up by the teachers.
