Labor and Management
Karl Marx said labor and management
Have nothing in common, you see
Groucho said if you walk and talk like a duck
You’ve had too much to drink
Engels nodded
Zeppo agreed
Vlad Lenin said we gotta kill
The royal family
John Lennon just said
shake yer jewelry
Stalin said, sounds cool
Ringo shook his jewelry too
History tends to repeat itself
If don’t pay attention, it’s true
History tends to repeat itself
And that shit catches up with you
Eric Burdon sang about a house
Of the rising sun
Richard Burton loved Liz
A bit too much
but they had themselves some fun.
History tends to repeat itself
If don’t pay attention, it’s true
History tends to repeat itself
And that shit catches up with you
Karl, Groucho, Vlad and John
Stalin and Ringo too
Eric, Richard
Liz on her own
All played hardball too
History is as history does
No one can deny
Education ain’t a waste of time
As so many do decry
If you pay attention
And listen close
You may one day see
Life makes more sense
When you understand the past
more adequately.
