Lyrics
Look what you get for following leaders
Who lead from the rear - where are they now?
Look what you get for following leaders
Who lead from the rear - where are they..
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 questions
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?
What did we learn in history lessons?
How to sit quiet at the back of a class
With so many things open to questions
It's too late to cry - there's no one to ask
Marching in time down a production line
What did that teach you about 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 runs the jungle - (only the strong survive)
Look what you get for following leaders
Who lead from the rear - where are they now?
The path of least resistance - a bland text book existence
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
What did we learn in history lessons?
How to sit quiet at the back of a class
With so many things open to questions
It's too late to cry - there's no one to ask
Marching in time down a production line
What did that teach you about life in the dole queue?
