The Terrible Burden of Personnel and School Board Members at the Minneapolis Public Schools >>>>> The Students Don't Know Much About Nothin' at All

Don't Know Much About Nothin' at All


(adaptation of [What a] Wonderful World, song written by Lou Adler, Herb Alpert, and Sam Cooke)


Don't know much about history,
don't know much geography,
don't know much about the science book,
don't know much about the French I took.


Don't know much about no Rise and Fall.
don't know much about nothin' at all---


You ain't put much in our heads,
so all we got to do is fall into bed,
gettin' pregnant in our early years,
you left us with so many haunting fears---


So just when the sun of our youth had risen,
we hit the streets and were off to prison.


That must make you feel real good,
not having educated us as you should.
just sittin' there watchin' us Rise and Fall,
we don't know how you sleep at all---


You ain't put much in our heads,
so all we got to do is fall into bed,
gettin' pregnant in our early years,
you left us with so many haunting fears---


So just when the sun of our youth had risen,
we hit the streets and were off to prison.


That must make you feel real good,
not having educated us as you should.
just sittin' and watchin' us Rise and Fall,
we don't know how you sleep at all---


We don't know how you sleep at all.
