Lyrics

From the Schools to the Factories (in three easy steps)

If it tastes like shit going down
It won’t taste much better coming back up
You are here to learn to think independently
Now repeat that back, repeat that back, repeat that back to me

To use propaganda efficiently
It must be subtle, so start easy
Insubordination cannot be tolerated
It’s sit down, shut up, line up, hands up, be “educated”

From the Schools to the Factories in three easy steps

There is one thing upon which we can agree
The person at the head seems a natural enemy
But we’ve grown ever so accustomed to authority
So maybe a prison cell seems safer than responsibility

From the Schools to the Factories in three easy steps

A lesson in democracy
Stripped of our autonomy
No input in the economy
“And they call it democracy” – Bruce Cockburn
