Swimming Upstream, why did I go this way?
Shooting the rapids, will I find my way?
Climbing the waterfalls, oh can you show me the way?
I shouldn't need too much help to complete this task
I'm sure I can be self-directed, you just have to ask
With Knowles andragogy, you may recollect
You can bring on those Tough learning projects
Swimming Upstream, why did I go this way?
Shooting the rapids, will I find my way?
Climbing the waterfalls, oh can you show me the way?
Discourse Dialogue Discussion Discovery Distraction
Action Reflection, Action Reflection and Action
With praxis not silence, Freire pushes reform
While Mezirow shows our perspectives transform
Swimming Upstream, why did I go this way?
Shooting the rapids, will I find my way?
Climbing the waterfalls, oh can you show me the way?
You might find that a pat on the back's what you've earned
Or stand in the belief we must be free to learn
But I think Carl Rogers is far too humane
To complain how B.F. Skinner behaves
Swimming Upstream, why did I go this way?
Shooting the rapids, will I find my way?
Climbing the waterfalls, oh can you show me the way?
Swimming Upstream, now I know that I'll make it someday.
