Suffer the Little Children - Buffy Sainte-Marie[00:00:00]

School bell go ding dong ding[00:00:16]

The children all line up[00:00:18]

They do what they are told[00:00:20]

Take a little drink from the liar's cup[00:00:23]

Mama don't really care[00:00:32]

If what they learn is true[00:00:36]

Or if it's only lies[00:00:38]

Just get them through the factories[00:00:42]

Into production[00:00:45]

Ah get them into line[00:00:47]

Late in the afternoon[00:00:50]

The children all come home[00:00:53]

They mind their manners well[00:00:55]

Their little lives are all laid out[00:00:57]

Mama don't seem to care[00:01:04]

If she may break their hearts[00:01:08]

She clips their wings off[00:01:10]

They never learn to fly[00:01:12]

Poor mama needs a source of pride[00:01:15]

A doctor son she'll have[00:01:20]

No matter[00:01:22]

What the cost to manhood or to soul[00:01:22]

Sun shine down brightly shine[00:01:28]

Down on all the land[00:01:30]

Shine down on the newborn lambs[00:01:32]

A butcher's knife is in his hand[00:01:34]

Mama she keeps them unprepared[00:01:41]

To meet the enemy[00:01:45]

That's comin' unto us[00:01:47]

Teach them that evil dwells across the sea[00:01:50]

Lives in a mountain[00:01:56]

Like they see on TV[00:01:58]

Down in the heart of town[00:02:02]

The devil dresses up[00:02:04]

He keeps his nails clean[00:02:06]

Did you think he'd be a boogeyman[00:02:09]

Oh mama's stuck with sagging dreams[00:02:16]

She'll sell a son or two into some slavery[00:02:20]

That's lucrative and fine[00:02:24]

Just teach them not to criticize[00:02:29]

Say yes to bosses impress the clients[00:02:32]

Ah teachers of the world[00:02:36]

Teach them to fake it well[00:02:38]

School bell go ding dong ding[00:02:42]

The children all line up[00:02:44]

They do what they are told[00:02:47]

Take a little drink from the liar's cup[00:02:49]
