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
