History Lessens (The Final Examination) Song Lyrics
History Lessens (The Final Examination) by Skycamefalling Look what you get for following leaders,
Who lead from the rear - where are they now ?
What did we learn in history lessons ?
How to sit quiet at the back of a class.
With so many things open to question,
It's too late to cry - there's no-one to ask.
Life's an education - a multiple equation,
Everybody finds their own solution in the end.
"To be or not to be" is a very lengthy question,
Has somebody please got a sharpened pencil they can lend ?
Marching in time down a production line,
What did that teach you 'bout life in the dole-queue ?
The Law of Relativity - (life's relative misery)
The Law of Probability - (it's probably contrived)
Newton's Law of Gravity - (we face a grave reality)
The law that rules the jungle - (only the strong survive)
The path of least resistance - a bland text book existance,
Don't expect to find the answers printed at the back.
The only sound advice that's carried me through life -
When the cards are stacked against you, play the joker in the pack.
