How important is the ability to think critically?
If it’s important, why do many things in our society stop us from developing critical thinking skills as a child?
These are the questions Tamlin wants to you through her latest single, “Come On, Little Human.”
The idea for this song came about when I was scrolling through my social media feed. More and more of my friends had become parents. I wanted this song to be a reminder to new parents of how easy it is to ruin kids’ capacity for critical thinking and individuality.

LYRICS
-----------------
Come on, little human
Put a smile on your face
Come on, little human
Crying's inappropriate
Come on, little human
Don't embarrass your mother
You must make her look good
in front of the neighbours
Wipe it off your face
Don't be unpleasant in public
Straighten up yourself
Be presentable in public
That's what it means to be a human
Come on, little human
Walk in line or you'll be shunned
Come on, little human
Don't offend anyone
Come on, little human
Don't be so impractical
Don't expose your true self
They'll think you're a radical
Wipe it off your head
That thought is too controversial
Get your head on straight
You must follow rules to survive in society
That's what it means to be a human
Na na nana na
Nana nana nana na
Na nana nana na
You won't change the world, not today
You won't change the world, not today
You won't change the world, not today
Oh, not today, oh
You won't change the world today
You won't change the world, not today
No, not today
You won't change the world, not today
No, not today
You won't change the world, not today
No, not today
Oh, you won't change the world
No, not today
Come on, little human
Just don't think too much
Come on, little human
Just don't think
Just don't think
Just don't think
Just don't think
Just don't think
Just don't think
Just don't think
Just
