Luyện nghe bài hát From The Cradle To The Grave

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

And if you're too intelligent they'll cut you to size
They'll praise you til happy then they'll fill you full of lies
Cos intelligence is threatening and is sin
If you could ever see through them they know they'd win

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

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

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

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

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

give you a decision when you get to 18, too
The right to for someone else who says he cares for you
But the only thing he cares about is to the top
By conning you empty words that promise you a lot
But the end result is to a false set of ideals
You'll be tempted to believe them cos they'll seem so very
The slavery of attitudes that make you keep in
Subconsciously 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 the army? Be a man and not a fool
There's someone 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 with 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 Kong
money being useless well it seems it can't go wrong
But then it's off to Northern Ireland where practice what they preached
You'll shoot to yourself alive and kill to keep the peace
And then it won't be so much fun as you hear the wounded
Cos before they couldn't speak and you didn't know what they were saying
But when the children call you "Bastard" it will make you think
When you cannot tell the difference between and men

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

Cos your 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 react against the brainwash the start
Your will rule your mind and your mind will rule your heart
You'll conform to social law and be the system's slave
From birth to school to to death, from the cradle to the grave.....
