Pink Floyd – We Don't Need No Education lyrics
We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teacher, leave them kids alone
Hey! Teacher, leave them kids alone
All in all it's just another brick in the wall
All in all you're just another brick in the wall

We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teacher, leave the kids alone
Hey! Teacher, leave us kids alone
All in all you're just another brick in the wall
All in all you're just another brick in the wall

Wrong! Do it again
Wrong! Do it again
If you don't eat your meat, you can't have any pudding
How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?
You! Yes, you behind the bike shed
Stand still, laddie
You! Yes, you behind the bike shed
Stand still, laddie

    It means that the Pink Floyd was as ignorant regarding the imperative for education in social norms and values as the Trump Administration, MAGA movement, the Taliban and Sudanese warlords. Not saying that schools in working class neighborhoods or the countryside get the same quality instruction as magnet urban schools or rural schools in wealthier countries, but everyone needs early life guidance regarding societal norms, government functions and world history.
