Don't blame the children

Blame the teachers - they taught the children

Smile out of style

Laugh on the wars you face back in town [??]

Smile out of style

Laugh on the wars you face back in town



Everyone's face you look on

Wears a frown,

And the feeling you get

Puts you down.

Cost of living is rising high while

Poverty flowing.

The rain is falling

But no seeds are growing.



So, smile out of style

Laugh on the wars you face back in town

Blame the teachers, for they teach the children.



Everyone's face you look on

Wears a frown,

And the feeling they give you

Just puts you down.



Cost of living is rising high while

Poverty flowing.

The rain is falling

But no seeds are growing.
