| They’re simple but they pay attention well
|
| I taught them to spell and gave them tools
|
| They’re civil for now but we’ll see how that goes
|
| I taught them to share and gave them clothes
|
| I’m no example, what I do is what I do
|
| I’m no example, what I say is what I expect from you
|
| They’re happy 'cause they can’t see what’s above
|
| I told them to love but gave them rules
|
| I fashioned them spears and knives for war
|
| But taught them peace, oh life’s a bore
|
| I’m no example, what I do is what I do
|
| I’m no example, what I say is what I expect from you
|
| Expect from you
|
| Ay, ay where’d you learn that from?
|
| The nerve to change, is that what you needed to do?
|
| Ay ay, where’d you learn that from?
|
| Answer me, my hands are clean
|
| I’m scooping you up with my hand
|
| Scooping up from your land you owe me one
|
| Scooping up from your land you owe me one
|
| I’m scooping you up from your little model city
|
| You owe me one
|
| I’m scooping you up from your little model city
|
| You’re not the only one |
