Luyện nghe bài hát From The Cradle To The Grave

Well took you from your mother's womb and put you in a school
Told you how to run your by following the rules
Told you not to pick nose or disrespect the queen
Scrub your teeth three times a day keep mind and body
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 what you're told
"You may think you don't need teaching but need it when you're old"

And if you're too intelligent they'll cut you to size
They'll praise you til you're happy then they'll fill you full of
Cos is threatening and genius is sin
If you ever see through them they know they'd never win

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

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

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

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

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

They'll give you a decision you get to 18, too
The right to vote for someone else who he cares for you
But the only thing he cares about is to the top
By conning you with empty words that 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 you end up on the dole which you very likely will
They'll offer you a brand new Learning how to kill

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

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

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

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