lyrics

My brothers and sisters went to school, but only a few really good brains are needed.

If you can’t keep up, you’re not alone
Just try to learn this stuff, yeah I know
You probably won’t get it
But if by chance you do
It probably won’t matter
There’s too many of you
You can teach the farmers’ kids, yeah that’s fine
A factory with a school, built nearby
To teach the children all, they need to know
Or at least to teach them something, yeah I know
You probably won’t get it
But if by chance you do
It probably won’t matter
There’s too many of you
They said your talents meant, that you were blessed
And more options would come, to you not less
You probably won’t get it
But if by chance you do
It probably won’t matter
There’s too many of you
You probably won’t get it
But if by chance you do
It probably won’t matter
There’s too many of you
