What did you learn in school today?
|
Did you learn to run when the teachers pray?
|
Did you learn enough to know the state you're in?
|
Not enough to get out
|
Not enough to win
|
|
What did you learn at home today?
|
Did you learn to hate in the proper way?
|
Did your liberated parents patronize your friends
|
'Cause they had enough money
|
'Cause they had the right skin?
|
|
Sat me dowen to wonder
|
What kind of place this really is
|
Well, maybe it's in the parks
|
Ah, maybe it's in the stores
|
But I know, if we're being honest
|
It's in the people
|
But they're all caught up in the traffic
|
Listening to the weather
|
|
Well, Dog! I know we're not in Kansas
|
The sky's all coloured wrong
|
I know we're not in Kansas
|
The nights are all too long
|
I sure dont understand this
|
That's what you're howling for
|
I know we're not in Kansas
|
Kansas anymore
|
|
What did you learn in your job today?
|
Did you learn to sleep while the boss is away?
|
Did you shut your mouth when he called you down
|
'Cause there's not that much in that kind of town?
|
|
Wander 'round thinking
|
Well, what kind of place is this?
|
But they say 'Hey, well, what did you do in the war?'
|
And I ask 'well, hey man, well what did you do with the peace?'
|
'Well, we built these real safe weapons so you could sleep with ease.'
|
|
Well, Dog! I know we're not in Kansas
|
The sky's all coloured wrong
|
I know we're not in Kansas
|
The night;'s are all too long
|
I sure don't understand this
|
That's what you're howlingfor
|
I know we're not in Kansas
|
kansas anymore
|
|
Well, what kind of place is this?
|
On the wrong side of the rainbow
|
Where the twisters never come
|
And they tore all the yellow bricks
|
And they sold them to Japan
|
And still the advertisers tell you
|
'Hey, there's no place like home.'
|
|
Well, Dog! I know we're not in Kansas
|
The sky's all coloured wrong
|
I know we're not in Kansas
|
The nights are all too long
|
I sure don't understand this
|
That's what you're howling for
|
I know we're not in Kansas
|
Kansas anymore
|
|
I know we're not in Kansas
|
The sky's all coloured wrong
|
I know we're not in Kansas
|
The nights are all too long
|
I sure don't understand this
|
That's what you're howling for
|
I know we're not in Kansas
|
Kansas anymore
