Teachers, Don't Teach Us Nonsense!
Leaders of The New School
{Good afternoon, Mr. Mangini, good afternoon
Yeah, I've got, ahh, three problems in my class
The first one is the Dinco D, yeah, right
He's always zonin' out, spacin', put him in detention}
Don't ring the bell, I'm not comin' to class
Teachers bein' preachers, how the hell can I pass?
First day of school an' I would go to the rear
With a blind spot view an' a one leg chair
I asked when, what, when, what, when class ends
The teacher points at the door, Go be with your friends
Yup, my rep was in effect to keep in step
So I stopped to drop bombs for a check
'Cause all I learned was when, where, why, what an' who
An' then I asked, "Do you think this is true?"
Out like a strike that's three an' a number
Public education is makin' some dumber
Further an' further away, doin' it out of sight
In a year, the young teacher should teach right
No class for a pupil without a pass but gun
Back in to pass but now in '91
B-ball wavin', pom-poms to cheers
Screamin' for the team, who asks
"Where do we go from here?"
{Second problem is the C Brown, yeah, right?
He's always playin' kazoos, makin' outrageous noises
Right, ad-libs, what should I do with him?
Yo, put him in detention too}
Well, how now brown cow?
Make the girls go, Ooh, ahh, ooh, ahh
School is shaky, sometimes flaky
Plenty frustratin', cheesy an' cakey
Why? Ahh, why? Ahh
Why? I was never on time
Always cuttin', goin' to the gym
Stem an' then I hear it's him
The one, the one, C Brown
This extra curriculum is beatin' them down
Ask the teachers to teach me somethin'
I can use because they're teachin' me nothin'
I tried to comply, his lie never dies
Inside, so I replied
"What about life? The real
Uncut uncensored deal
I must not go, Ahh in class
I won't pass, at last for the blast
Stop the brainwash, hang out to dry
Nonsense, I'm convinced it's lies
Truth to the youth is necessary
Important? Damn, I'd say very
March, hut, one, hut, two
C'mon, march, hut, three, hut, four
I'd say just educate yourself
Don't depend on your school for help
Read an' write 'cause it's evidence
'Cause teachers, yo, they be teachin' us nonsense
{The last but not least it's a Busta Rhymes
Yeah, I know which one you're talkin' about
