Peter Tosh - You can't blame the youth lyrics

You can't blame the youth You can't fool the youth You can't blame the youth of today You can't fool the youth You're teachin' youths to learn in school That cow jump over moon You teachin' youths to learn in school That the dish run away with spoon So, you can't blame the youth when they don't learn You can't fool the youth You can't blame the youth of today You can't fool the youth You teach the youth about Christopher Colombus And you said he was a very great man You teach the youth about Marco Polo And you said he was a very great man You teach the youth about the Pirate Hawkins And you said he was a very great man You teach the youth about the Pirate Morgan And you said he was a very great man So, you can't blame the youth of today You can't fool the youth You can't blame the youth You can't fool the youth All these great men were doin' Robbin', a rapin', kidnappin' and k**in' So called great men were doin' Robbin', rapin', kidnappin' So, you can't blame the youth You can't fool the youth You can't blame the youth, not at all You can't fool the youth When every Christmas come You buy the youth a pretty toy gun When every Christmas come You buy the youth a fancy toy gun So, you can't blame the youth You can't fool the youth You can't blame the youth You can't fool the youth 'Cause what was hidden from the wise and the prudent Is now revealed to the babes and the s**lings What was hidden from the wise and the prudent Now revealed to the babes and the s**lings Lord, call upon the youth For he know the youth is strong Jah, Jah, call upon the youth 'Cause he know the youth is strong So, you can't blame the youth You can't fool the youth You can't blame the youth, baby children You can't fool the youth Don't blame them Not their fault
