I can see you in the
morning when you go
to school
Don't forget your
books, you know
you've got to learn
the golden rule
Teacher tells you
stop your play and
get on with your
work
And to be like
Johnnie-too-good,
well don't you know
he never shirks
He's coming along!
After school is
over, you're playing
in the park
Don't be out too
late, don't let it
get too dark
They tell you not to
hang around and
learn what life's
about
And to grow up just
like them - won't
let you work it
out
And you're full of
doubt
Don't do this and
don't do that
What are they trying
to do?
Make a good boy of
you
Do they know where
it's at?
Don't criticize,
they're old and wise
Do as they tell you
to
Don't want the devil
to
Come and put out
your eyes
Maybe I'm mistaken,
expecting you to
fight
Or maybe I'm just
crazy, I don't know
wrong from right
But while I am still
living, I've just
got this to say
It's always up to
you, if you want to
be that
Want to see that
Want to see it that
way
-- you're coming
along!
