Home Brew - Tell the Children the Truth lyrics

Alright, let's check back into school

I feel violated because they are
Taking us they are
Taking education away from us
And I demand education, a better education

There isn't any way to punish
A large number of deviants
Unless you can colonize the mind
Of children growing up
So they become their own police

Fuck that yea, yea, uh
Goldilocks was a slut!

Tell the children the truth
The pigs killed the Big Bad Wolf
And the witch got framed
It wasn't her it was Bush
Humpty nevеr jumped, he was pushed


Bo Peep was a bitch, shе never lost no sheep
She had them all killed for their meat
Cinderella was a whore, and life is raw
You live, you die, that's all

Class clown, teacher's pet, whatever
Just let us play let us learn somethin' that
Might concern somethin' today
You been tellin' me some eat-ass, Miss
All this school shit
Makes me think I'll never get
A job doin' music
But this old dictator can't teach me jack
Why you talkin' to me like I'm
Just a piece of crap?
Just scribblin' my rhymes while you
Talkin' 'bout your algebra
With your little text book to help
Figure it out for ya
You call it a uniform, I call it a costume
How the hell the classroom is
Different from the staffroom?
Say that we should be in a group
Not be original
But that's how people end up hatin'
People that they're different to look, Miss
I'm sick of being treated like a criminal
I suggest you get someone
To contact the principle
Tell him that we gonna need the
Keys to the swimmin' pool
Or every teacher in the school
Will be dead by interval (What!?)

Tell the children the thruth
The pigs killed the Big Bad Wolf
And the witch, she got framed
It wasn't her it was Bush
Humpty never jumped, he was pushed
Bo Peep was a bitch, she never lost no sheep
She had them all killed for their meat
Cinderella was a whore, and life is raw
Ya live, ya die, that's all
Tell the children the truth

If your kids do badly it does not mean
That they're bad readers or anything else
It means that they haven't been obedient
To the drills that day
Ah, everyone calm down
Get in a straight line
Hey, hey you, stop being creative!
C'mon, I wanna call the roll
Now everyone shut the-
Put it up your hairy ass, Miss

(Ah, all clear?) Yea, no shit, we're all here
Now ring the bell before we're
Forced to make warfare
(Is Sean here?) Sure yea
We haven't got all year
Look, Miss, we're bored
We're just here to play four-square
Why you always wanna keep track of me
And why you make the geeks rat on me
(Tom, don't speak back to me)
Look, there's 33 of us, Miss
And only one of you and we all wanna "What
Class?" So what you gonna do?
'Cause we, we gonna tie you to your desk
Cover you in meths, set fire to your dress
Bubble any trouble
And we're doublin' and rumblin'
We're gonna leave you covered in more
Blood than a jungle gym
Oh, yes, you're gonna pay (What)
For leading us kids the wrong way (What)
Now if you're free and you're young
Then shout "Freedom!"
And if you're ready to die for it
Say "Goldilocks was a slut!"

Tell the children the thruth
The pigs killed the Big Bad Wolf
And the witch got framed
It wasn't her it was Bush
Humpty never jumped, he was pushed
Bo Peep was a bitch, she never lost no sheep
She had them all killed for their meat
Cinderella was a whore, and life is raw
Ya live, then ya die and thats all
Tell the children the truth

We no have education we have
Inspiration if I was educated
I would be a damn fool

Stop your lyin', stop your lyin'
Tell the children the truth (Yea, yea)
You're tellin' us this and you're tellin' us
That but you ain't got no proof
(Yea, whatever, Miss)
Everything that I need to know
I learned from Dr seuss (It's real)
So we don't need your education
Tell the children the truth

And we're now running national
Education systems where mistakes
Are the worst thing you can make
And the consequence is that
Many highly talented
Brilliant, creative people think they're not
Because the thing they were good at at
School wasn't valued or was actually
Stigmatized and I think we can't afford
To go on that way

Tell the children the truth
