Music and lyrics ©Laurian TALER, 1998

1
Many things they taught in classes,
Even more they whipped our asses,
What we learned was in the alleys
That life has mountains and valleys
2
We forgot to ask our questions,
We forgot to build our bastions,
We came out to fight our battles
But were driven more like cattle

R1
Now we know what is a river,
Now we know why people shiver,
But we still cannot deliver
What is happiness

R2
People wait for an anointed
While they let themselves exploited
Never finding, disappointed,
What is happiness


3
What they should teach now in classes
To empower all the masses
Is that life is to be cherished
And you fight for it till perished

4
Work makes you spring into action,
Love will give you satisfaction,
Treat yourself and others fair
And the crops of life you share

R3
Build up friendships, conquer reason,
Chase out evil, laugh a season,
Be together, find your vision,
That is happiness

R4
Build up friendships, conquer reason,
Chase out evil, laugh a season,
Be together, find your vision,
That is happiness.
