YEAH, BUT DO THEY REALIZE THAT THE ALBUM WAS CALLED STAY HUNGRY?

Last year, a bunch of teachers took Twisted Sister’s legendary teen rebellion anthem, “We’re Not Gonna Take It,” and used it to teach teenagers to be less rebellious. Now, almost five-hundred people in Marietta, Georgia, are planning to perform a choreographed dance to the song this Saturday evening in order to raise awareness for hunger. Based on the below rehearsal video for the dance, I would guess that this, too, was the brainchild of an old person.

And I’d like to make fun of this for being incredibly lame and caucasian, except it’s SUCH a good cause, and even I’m not THAT jaded. And it’s usage here is certainly truer to the themes of the song than what those teachers did. (Although, besides the chorus, the lyrics really make no sense when discussing this particular issue — no one is starving because they “don’t want nothin’, not a thing from you.” They actually do want something from you: food.)
