Skyclad

Skyclad - History Lessens (The Final Examination) lyrics

rate me

Look what you get for following leaders,

who lead from the rear - where are they now ?

What did we learn in history lessons ?

How to sit quiet at the back of a class.

With so many things open to question,

it's too late to cry - there's no-one to ask.

Life's an education - a multiple equation,

everybody finds their own solution in the end.

"To be or not to be" is a very lengthy question,

has somebody please got a sharpened pencil they can lend ?

Marching in time down a production line,

what did that teach you 'bout life in the dole-queue ?

The Law of Relativity - (life's relative misery)

The Law of Probability - (it's probably contrived)

Newton's Law of Gravity - (we face a grave reality)

The law that rules the jungle - (only the strong survive)

The path of least resistance - a bland text book existance,

don't expect to find the answers printed at the back.

The only sound advice that's carried me through life -

when the cards are stacked against you, play the joker in the pack.
