You've got to be taught

[Celebration]

South Pacific , Rogers and Hammerstein

You've got to be taught
To hate and fear,
You've got to be taught
From year to year,
It's got to be drummed
In your dear little ear
You've got to be carefully taught.

You've got to be taught to be afraid
Of people whose eyes are oddly made,
And people whose skin is a diff'rent shade,
You've got to be carefully taught.

You've got to be taught before it's too late,
Before you are six or seven or eight,
To hate all the people your relatives hate,
You've got to be carefully taught!

[Solly Mack]

Please note the history behind the production of South Pacific. There was a time, not all so very long ago, when people were willing to stand up for what was right and not cave in to the conservatives.
