Equal at First

When young

There's so many questions to ask

You grow and you have learn things so fast

As kid, everything looks like a dream

Somehow, dreams are not what they seem

[Chorus:]

You need the learnin'

You need to to know

There is but one way that you can go

At school, there's so many words to be read

You fool, nothing is learned from your bed

Don't you know we're all equal at first

You'll feel, the lack of knowledge like thirst

[Repeat chorus]

You talk, but your words they don't make no sense

Why try, when you are not feelin' no tense

You'll flunk, your effort is layin' too low

You punk, you're just too stupid to know

[Repeat chorus]
