You Cant Blame the Youth by The Wailers Lyrics

You can't blame the youths
You can't fool the youths
You can't blame the youths of today
You can't fool the youths

You're teachin' youths to learn in school
Like a cow jumped over moon
You're teachin' youths to learn in school
Like a dish run away with a spoon

So you can't blame the youths of today
You can't fool the youths
You can't blame the youths, none at all
You can't fool the youths

You teach the youths about Christopher Columbus
And you said he was a very great man
You teach the youths about Marco Polo
And you said he was a very great man
You teach the youths about the pirate Hawkins
And you said he was a very great man
You teach the youths about the pirate Morgan
And you said he was a very great man
So you can't blame the youths when they don't learn
You can't fool the youths
You can't blame the youths of today
You can't fool the youths

When every Christmas come
You buy the youth a pretty toy gun
When every Christmas comes around
You buy the youth a fancy toy gun

So you can't blame the youths when they get bad
You can't fool the youths
You can't blame the youths of today
You can't fool the youths

(said he was a very great man)
(said he was a very great man)
You teach the youths about Christopher Columbus
And you said he was a very great man
You teach the youths about Marco Polo
And you said he was a very great man
You teach the youths about the pirate Hawkins
And you said he was a very great man
You teach the youths about the pirate Morgan
And you said he was a very great man
So you can't blame the youths
You can't fool the youths
You can't blame the youths of today
You can't fool the youths, yeah
