Luyện nghe bài hát From The Cradle To The Grave

Well they took you from mother's womb and put you in a school
Told you how to run your life by following the
you not to pick your nose or disrespect the queen
Scrub your teeth three times a day keep and body clean
Save up all your pocket money, nothing is for
And you'd better trust your parents cos there's no one you see
And then they send you off each day remember you're told
"You may think you don't need teaching but need it when you're old"

And if you're too they'll cut you down to size
They'll praise you til you're happy then they'll you full of lies
Cos intelligence is and genius is sin
If you could ever see through them they they'd never win

So they channel your ability into the right
If you're good enough and enough you can be a politician
On the other hand if your too thick tell you that you're lazy
They'll put you down and you up until it drives you crazy

They'll say you ought to learn a trade to help you in life
is written in three parts: A job, a house, a wife
They'll say that school you for the awesome world outside
Well it certainly gives you bigotry and pride

Racism, sexism teacher to
From school to work remains the sameare you white and class?

learn that bad men dress in black and good men dress in white
And the pamphlets in the playground say that's
And girls were made for housework and boys were made to fight
And the naughty pictures on page 3 make alright

And so from school to the world these morals you will take
And unless you can reject them you'll have mind at stake

They'll give you a when you get to 18, too
The right to vote for else who says he cares for you
But the only he cares about is getting to the top
By conning you with empty words promise you a lot
But the end result is to a false set of ideals
You'll be tempted to believe cos they'll seem so very real
The slavery of attitudes that you keep in line
devoted to the morals of our time

And when you end up on the dole you very likely will
offer you a brand new trade: Learning how to kill

Why don't you join the Be a man and not a fool
There's else to think for you just like there was at school

They'll promise you absolution from the murders you'll
In the name of god and country they can get away it
They you full of orders and promise you rewards
busting up your family by sending you abroad
A holiday in Germany or Iceland or Hong
Making money being useless well it it can't go wrong
But then it's off to Northern Ireland where practice what they preached
You'll shoot to keep alive and kill to keep the peace
And then it won't be so fun as you hear the wounded crying
Cos before they speak english and you didn't know what they were saying
But when the children call you "Bastard" it will you think again
When you cannot tell the difference between and men

don't wear uniforms but they kill as much as you
But the army for money and animals kill for food
It's the basest degredation in the name of what is
Become you never were and regret it til you die

Cos father will tell you "Sonny, you must do as you are told"
And you'll say the same thing to kids when you're 32 years old
And unless you can against the brainwash from the start
Your government will your mind and your mind will rule your heart
You'll to every social law and be the system's slave
From birth to school to work to death, from the to the grave.....
