| Lyrics: | Women sewed the Stars and Stripes
And the men, they fought the wars
The children learned
arithmetic
And everyone was poor
Young man was the hero of the day
Long long hours,
short short pay
Lesson I learned in history book, now
It's not what they told
me
Folk lore, folk lore, folk lore
Your momma never told you
Now the women scream
for equal rights
Their man wants to have an affair
Children learn to hate the world
And
no one seems to care
Now the kids play vids instead
Their heroes are living on Wonder
Bread
Lesson I learned in history book, now
It's not what they told me
Folk lore,
folk lore, folk lore
Your momma never told you that
Some things never change
Some
things stay the same
Some things rearranged
One thing I know for sure, your heroes always
die |
