[New Broadway Cast of South Pacific 2008, Matthew Morrison, Paulo Szot - You've Got to Be Carefully Taught lyrics]

You've got to be taught to hate and fear
You've got to be taught from year to year
It's got to be drummed in
Your dear little ear
You've got to be carefully taught

You've got to be taught to be afraid
Of people whose eyes are oddly made
And people whose skin is a diff'rent shade
You've got to be carefully taught
You've got to be taught before it's too late
Before you are six or sеven or eight
To hate all thе people your relatives hate
You've got to be carefully taught
You've got to be carefully taught

This is just the kind of
I was running away from
It has followed me all this way
All these years, now it has found me



I was cheated before and I'm cheated again
By a mean little world of mean little men
And the one chance for me is
This life I know best
To be here on an island and
To hell with the rest
I'll cling to this island like
A tree or a stone
I'll cling to this island and
Be free and alone
