Jackson Janet The Knowledge Lyrics

The Knowledge Lyrics

Insight to what's going on 

 Information keeps us strong 

 What you don't know can hurt you bad 

 Take it from me you'll be walkin' around sad 

 Cryin' for a better day 

 Until you educate for a better way 

 So if you wanna be in control 

 Ya gotta get yourself in the know 

  

 CHORUS: 

 Get the knowledge 

 That you really want 

 The knowledge 

 Do you really want 

 It's the knowledge 

 What you really want 

 The knowledge 

 That you really want 

  

 Spreading vise don't believe the hype 

 You don't find the knowledge in a pipe 

 Too many lives go up in smoke 

 It's nice to laugh but don't be the joke 

 To get over get better 

 Try to be the possessor 

 Of the one thing we all need in life 

 To succeed take my advice 

 Chorus 

 Prejudice No! 

 Ignorance No! 

 Bigotry No! 

 Illiteracy No! 

 Listen it's up to everyone 

 If we're gonna change the way the world is run 

 The way to start is to rid the children of 

 Prejudice & ignorance 

 We've gotta teach our kids to read & write 

 That's the only way to win this fight for life 

 Education is the goal so 

 If you wanna be in the know 

 get the knowledge 

 It's the one thing we all need in life 

  

 CHORUS
