歌曲歌詞
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
But 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
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 don't understand Kansas
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
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 Kansas
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 Kansas
That's what you're howling for
I know we're not in Kansas
Kansas anymore
