Old Johnny Cash help me walk the line Old Bobby Marley how your soul does shine Old Woodie Guthrie has a rebel heart Old Bille Holiday sings like a lark Nina Simone can make feel so high Old like Kelly brings tears to my eyes Old philo Lynott still breaking down walls I'm thanking you one and all We got teachers in school Some are wise and some were fools But they're also on the radio Bubblegum rock and Bubblegum roll Bubblegum punk and Bubblegum soul Bubblegum hip hop Bubblegum dance People walk around in a Bubblegum trance Teachers on tha air are getting less It's all about the image and possessions and sex I've got my stereo and I'm the DJ And I decide what I play We got teachers in school Some are wise and some were fools But they're also on the radio I'm gonna fight for my right to the light With my hears wide open , heart wide open And If I get down I'll have the teachers around Get the stereo Blarin do some learnin Teachers are teaching and preaching to me from the stereo
