WHAT DID YOU LEARN IN SCHOOL TODAY?

What did you learn in school today,
Dear little boy of mine?
What did you learn in school today,
Dear little boy of mine?
I learned that Washington never told a lie.
I learned that soldiers never die.
I learned that everybody's free,
And that's what the teacher said to me.

That's what I learned in school today,
That's what I learned in school.

What did you learn in school today,
Dear little boy of mine?
What did you learn in school today,
Dear little boy of mine?
I learned that policemen are my friends.
I learned that justice never ends.
I learned that murderers die for their crimes
Even if we make a mistake sometimes.

That's what I learned in school today,
That's what I learned in school.

What did you learn in school today,
Dear little boy of mine?
What did you learn in school today,
Dear little boy of mine?
I learned that Government must be strong;
It's always right and never wrong;
Our leaders are the finest men
And we elect them again and again.

That's what I learned in school today,
That's what I learned in school.

What did you learn in school today,
Dear little boy of mine?
What did you learn in school today,
Dear little boy of mine?
I learned that war is not so bad;
I learned about the great ones we have had;
We fought in Germany and in France
And someday I might get my chance.

That's what I learned in school today,
That's what I learned in school.
WHAT DID YOU LEARN AT HOME TODAY

What did you learn at home today, dear little girl of mine?
What did you learn at home today, dear little girl of mine?
I learned that school is now my home
I learned to study all alone
I watch TV and the internet
For the education I can get
That’s what I learned at home today, that’s what I learned at home

What did you learn at home today, dear little girl of mine?
What did you learn at home today, dear little girl of mine?
I learned that policemen are my friends
I learned they needn’t make amends
I learned that kneeling on a black man’s neck
Means they won’t lose their pay cheque
That’s what I learned at home today, that’s what I learned at home

What did you learn at home today, dear little girl of mine?
What did you learn at home today, dear little girl of mine?
I learned delays caused many deaths
The virus comes with every breath
I learned to protect myself with a mask
I learned there’s things I shouldn’t ask.
That’s what I learned at home today, that’s what I learned at home

What did you learn at home today, dear little girl of mine?
What did you learn at home today, dear little girl of mine?
I learned that Britain’s in the lead
For wasted millions and for greed
Corona virus for the poor
While the rich are gathering more and more.
That’s what I learned at home today, that’s what I learned at home

What did you learn at home today, dear little girl of mine?
What did you learn at home today, dear little girl of mine?
I learned that the cabinet have no cares
Because they are all millionaires
They all went to public schools
They learned how to bend the rules
That’s what I learned at home today, that’s what I learned at home

What did you learn at home today, dear little girl of mine?
What did you learn at home today, dear little girl of mine?
I learned when banners are unfurled
That protest spreads around the world
I learned that change is up to me
I learned that this world can be free
That’s what I learned at home today, that’s what I learned at home.
