I was educated by the school of hard knocks
Tell me who's gonna patronize me now?
They've brainwashed the suckers again and perpetrated the myth
Propaganda far and wideNo wavelength, no mileage
No current currency
No answers, just silence
And nothing is what it's supposed to beI was educated by the school of hard knocks
Tell me who's gonna patronize me now?
I got shipwrecked and got stranded on the rocks
Everybody left me high and dryI was educated by the school of hard knocks
Who's gonna patronize me now?
Brainwashed the suckers again and perpetrated the myth
Propaganda far and wideNo wavelength, no mileage
There's no current currency
No answers, only silence
Nothing looks like it's meant to beI was educated by the school of hard knocks
Who's gonna patronize me now?
Just got shipwrecked and stranded on the rocks
And it left me high and dryAnd it's left me sitting high and dry
And it left me sitting high and dry
And it left me sitting high and dry
