Lyrics
You can't blame the youths
You can't fool the youths
You can't blame the youths
Not at all, you don't, you can't fool the youths
You teach the youths about Christopher Columbus
And you said he was a very great man
You teach the youths about Marco Polo
And you said he was a very great man
You teach the youths about the pirate Hawkins
And you said he was a very great man
You teach the youths about the pirate Morgan
And you said he was a very great man
So, you can't blame the youths of today
You can't fool the youths
You can't blame these youths
Not at all, you don't, you can't fool the youths
Teach the youths about Christopher Columbus
Said he was a very great man
Teach the youths about Marco Polo
And you said he was a very great man
Teach the youths about the pirate Hawkins
And you said he was a very great man
You teach the youths about the pirate Morgan
And you said he was a very great man
So, you can't blame the youths
And you can't fool the youths
You can't blame the youths
And you can't fool the youths
You're teaching youths to learn in the school
That the cow jumped over moon
Teaching youths to learn in the school
That the dish ran away with spoon
So, you can't blame the youths
And you can't fool the youths
You can't blame the youths of today
You can't fool the youths
(Said he was a very great man)
(Said he was a very great man)
You teach the youths about Christopher Columbus
And you said he was a very great man
You teach the youths about Marco Polo
And you said he was a very great man
You teach the youths about the pirate Hawkins
And you said he was a very great man
You teach the youths about the pirate Morgan
And you said he was a very great man
So, you can't blame the youths
You can't fool the youths
You can't blame these youths of today
You can't fool the youths
Teach the youths about Christopher Columbus
And said he was a very great man
Teach the youths about Marco Polo
And said he was a very great man
So, you just can't blame the youths, no
You just can't blame the youths
I said we live as what we learn, what we livin', what we teach
You can't blame the youths
