History Lesson
Good morning boys and girls
I'm subbin' for Madame Delouse
Here to teach you some basics
Beyond tying your shoes
When you hang around grownups
They'll pretend to have a clue
But just like you they know only
One way to tie a shoe
Look around you and you'll get it
Coup d'états, coup de grâce
There's just chaos, we all dread it
Ooh là là, ooh là là
There's only one thing to learn
Is how to steer your own ship
Let 'em teach you how
Then kick 'em in the shins and skip!
History is when
A lotta nasty stuff happened
You'll need to hold onto mommy's hand
Just to make it thru the blurb
And the future is where we pretend we have learned
But every nasty thing is gonna happen again
And if we're lucky almost every nasty thing
Is gonna happen again, and again
Nevermind me, I'm just bitter
On this state of affairs
Been on hold for a decade
To reach a soul that cares
In the meantime this planet
Got crazier still
When the principal fires me
Just remember I was real
Look around you and you'll get it
Je n'sais pas! je n'sais quoi!
Just death in where we're headed
Ooh là là! ooh là là!
Only one thing to learn—
How to work your own ship
Let 'em show you how
Then give them the flip!
