Leaders of the New School (LONS) - Teachers Don't Teach Us Nonsense Lyrics

Good afternoon Mr. Mangini (Good afternoon)

Yeah, I've got ahh.. three problems in my class (Mmmhmm)

The first one is the Dinco D (Yeah right)

He's always zoning out, spacing (Put him in detention!)



[Dinco D]

Don't ring the bell I'm not comin to CLASS

Teachers bein preachers how the hell can I PASS?

First day of school and would zone to the rear

with a blind spot view and a one leg chair

I asked when WHAT when WHAT when class ends

The teacher points at the door: "Go be with your friends!"

YUP!My rep was in effect to keep in step

So I stopped to drop bombs for a check

Cause all I learned was when where why what and who

And then I asked "Do you think this is true?"

OUT! like a strike that's three and a number

Public education is makin some dumber

Further and further away, doin it out of sight

In a year the young, teacher should teach right

No class for a pupil without a pass but gun

Back in to pass but now in ninety-one

B-BALL wavin pom-poms to cheers

Screaming for the team, who asks "Where do we go from here?"



Second problem is the C Brown (Yeah right?)

He's always playing kazoos (Uh-huh) Making outrageous noises (Right)

Ad-libs... what should I do with him?(Yo put him in detention too!)



[Charlie Brown]

Welllll, how now brown cow?

Make the girls go OOOH-AHH-OOOH-AHH!

School is shaky, sometimes flaky

Plenty frustrating, cheesy and cake-y

Why? AHHWhy? AHH

Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy... I was never on time

Always cuttin, goin to the GYM

Stem and then I hear it's him

The one, THE ONE, C Browwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwn

This extra curriculum is beating them down

Ask the teachers, to teach me somethin

I can use, because they're teachin me nothin

I tried to comply his lies, never dies

insides, so I replied

"What about life?The real (THE REAL)

uncut uncensored deal (DEAL)"

I must not go AHH in class

I won't pass, at last for the blast

Stop the brainwash, hang out to dry

Nonsense I'm convinced it's lies

Truth to the youth is necessary

Important?Damn!I'd say very

March!HUT ONE HUT TWO!

C'mon, March!HUT THREE HUT FOUR!

I'd say just educate yourself

Don't depend on your school for help

Read and write, cause it's, evidence

Cause teachers, yo, they be teachin us NONSENSE



Now last but not least it's a Busta Rhymes

(Yeah I know which one you're talking about)

He's always talking to the girls, talking in class

starting trouble, throwin spitballs

(Yeah he's a hardcore problem, uhh... detention!)



[Busta Rhymes]

YO!! Wake up in the morning to a big fat WOW!

Gotta get to school, on time anyHOW!

In school, the brainwash epidemic

Gotta hit em back with a rhyme calisthetic

Got enough beef with the kids who be switchin

Now I'm in school, and yo the teacher starts riffin

this and that, and yo it's all irrelevant

As I get older gotta build my own intelligence

TEACHER, what are you doin

Is it my rhymes that you're really tryin to ruin

Back of the class then I come FORTH

The water lies between us, it's time to CROSS

Me being the younger, him the elder

If we were in a war, he thinks I surrender

Kids on the block just scramblin AHHH

Cause the teacher's in class just babblin OOOH

They're teachin nonsense, teachin total nonsense

Then they wonder why we so disobedience

HUH, he tried to break my back

HUH, I come, like black on the attack

Young and the Restless, teacher don't test this

If you try to front, you'll be sure to get this

POW BOOM BANG, straight to the grill

Teach the truth yo, relax and chill

Pronunciation, vexed I'm pissed

Yo my man you better stop teachin us that nonsense

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH

There it go like that!



Alright Mr. Mangini, aahh, what do you suggest that we do

about Busta Rhymes, Charlie Brown, and Dinco D?

(Those three problems?They're never gonna amount to anything anyway

Throw em all out, expel em)



HELL NO!WE WON'T GO! *repeat and fade*
