Lyrics
Old Johnny Cash help me walk the line
Old Bobby Marley how your soul does shine
Old Woodie Guthrie has a rebel heart
Old Bille Holiday sings like a lark
Nina Simone can make feel so high
Old like Kelly brings tears to my eyes
Old philo Lynott still breaking down walls
I'm thanking you one and all
We got teachers in school
Some are wise and some were fools
But they're also on the radio
Bubblegum rock and Bubblegum roll
Bubblegum punk and Bubblegum soul
Bubblegum hip hop Bubblegum dance
People walk around in a Bubblegum trance
Teachers on tha air are getting less
It's all about the image and possessions and sex
I've got my stereo and I'm the DJ
And I decide what I play
We got teachers in school
Some are wise and some were fools
But they're also on the radio
I'm gonna fight for my right to the light
With my hears wide open, heart wide open
And If I get down I'll have the teachers around
Get the stereo Blarin do some learnin
Teachers are teaching and preaching to me
From the stereo
