Peter Tosh - Can't Blame The Youth Lyrics






You can't blame the youth
You can't fool the youth
You can't blame the youth of today
You can't fool the youth

You're teachin' youths to learn in school
That cow jump over moon
You teachin' youths to learn in school
That the dish run away with spoon

So, you can't blame the youth when they don't learn
You can't fool the youth
You can't blame the youth of today
You can't fool the youth

You teach the youth about Christopher Colombus
And you said he was a very great man
You teach the youth about Marco Polo
And you said he was a very great man
You teach the youth about the Pirate Hawkins
And you said he was a very great man
You teach the youth about the Pirate Morgan
And you said he was a very great man

So, you can't blame the youth of today
You can't fool the youth
You can't blame the youth
You can't fool the youth

All these great men were doin'
Robbin', a rapin', kidnappin' and killin'
So called great men were doin'
Robbin', rapin', kidnappin'

So, you can't blame the youth
You can't fool the youth
You can't blame the youth, not at all
You can't fool the youth

When every Christmas come
You buy the youth a pretty toy gun
When every Christmas come
You buy the youth a fancy toy gun

So, you can't blame the youth
You can't fool the youth
You can't blame the youth
You can't fool the youth

'Cause what was hidden from the wise and the prudent
Is now revealed to the babes and the sucklings
What was hidden from the wise and the prudent
Now revealed to the babes and the sucklings

Lord, call upon the youth
For he know the youth is strong
Jah, Jah, call upon the youth
'Cause he know the youth is strong

So, you can't blame the youth
You can't fool the youth
You can't blame the youth, baby children
You can't fool the youth

Don't blame them
Not their fault

    Maybe not then but def now. I'm blaming the youth. And the generation that are pissing all over them and telling them it's raining. Jesus is the Answer and Trump is his agent, carrying on the message that peter Tosh delivered.

    ピータートシュ、トッシュとも呼ばれるのでしょうか、全く推測の域を出ないことを望むのですが例えばレゲエミュージックと謂うものが解体して行くとリズムだけの音楽になってしまって、それ以上でも以下でもない音楽に例えることができるとするとまた、今度はネイミング、ネームの問題などが出てきてそれだけでも様々なことだと思えるのですが、例えるなら此のピーターさん、ピーターと呼ぶ名称的な国籍がイングランド、イングリッツだと考えることができるとすると一つにはそこでの生活、国際的なことが発生して来る、それを何だと言っても習慣、風俗の違い、習慣、血族の違いでしかなく具体的に言ってそれがなに、何であることかと云い表わすことは出来兼ねること、それで何故、レゲエミュージックなる物が生まれたことかはわからないので、令により後に回す、回して考えることになるのですが、唯、習慣、習俗、風習の違いとなってこうした文化が生まれたと云う事になればそれは判らない、判然としないことになってしまう訳ですね、勿論、文化と言えるものがそうした差異の元により生まれる物だとしてもそれが当然であると言うことができると今度は又、レゲエミュージック、レゲエスタイルに話しを戻すことにして考えてみますけれど、レゲエミュージック、レゲエミュージックスタイル、自体がその発祥と云い換えられることになってしまうのかもしれませんが此の或、種のスタイル、名称、そして名前といった単なる物理的なことだけを離れても身元と謂うことかそれらが判然としなくなってしまう、此れはどういったこと、どういった意味ないし意義があることなのでしょうかと思えるのです、歴史が歴史を剥ぐ、剥ぎ取ってしまうと謂えることかそういうことができるのでしょうか、言い過ぎたようなので此の侭で終いにさせていただきますが文化と云ったことはそういった面があるのでしょうか、大変野蛮だと謂えることか大変に残酷だなと思う部分があって大変に酷いことだと思うことはあるのですがそれは、取り敢えずしも置いて於いてまた後日、書かせて頂くことで落着を探せればいいのかと思うので今度は此れくらいで終いにさせて頂いてと思われます、最近どうやら歴史的なことも描くことが増えているように思うのですが何卒、よろしくして頂いてはこの辺、此のくらいでご勘弁願いたい、頂きたいと思っております、寸評宜しく、またそう用紛うことかと思われます故、よろしく願いたいと思っております、大変、失礼致しました故、失敬お許しくださいまた、書かせて頂きたいと思っております、失敬でしたまた、お許し願えればと思います、失礼致しました失礼をばお許し下さい、失礼しました又と考えております、失礼いたしました失礼したいと思います、失礼致しました失礼します、

  22. j.... s....

    Salute to the greatest..RIP brother..

  23. O.... G....

    This is a profoundly moving and revolutionary album! I hear him calling souls to come up Higher and rise to a place of being a true son or daughter of Zion. He was a civil rights leader and inspirational speaker, who sang. The confidence these songs can instill is a prayer and a song, as I imagine. He is beckoning the listeners to come apart and be a separate people, aware, actualized, and free. This music stirs the fires of freedom and self-realization in my soul. Thank you, Peter.

  24. B.... ....

    One of the best reggae collections of all time as far as I'm concerned and with THE best reggae writer, singer, performer, musician, artist that ever hit the stage out of Jamaica. And there are many greats as we know. Personal pref this ain't a Peter or Bob thing!!! These seem to all have been recorded during the Wailers years and it got that song "Love"!!!! Prophets don't stay so we have these wonderful recordings. My favorite songs of all wailers records are the 3 or 4 that feature Peter Tosh. Don't get me wrong, I love me some Bob but they are two very different individuals and Peter Tosh always drew me and he is responsible for helping me come close to Jah Light once again. Rest in Peace my brother, hope I don't disturb you, cause I'm jammin' this loud and long!

    B.... ....

    yes there is none like him.

    Teflon Eibeat'East Africa if that’s the case why is evil still around today? You don’t have much intelligence do you?

    F.... S....

    @Glenis G.Evil is still around because people Love their Sins. Spiritual wickedness in high and low places.

    "You can’t fool me" Peter Tosh
    All humanity was fooled in that way, except the "power ego people" who chose to play those division illusion tricks upon us... For luck we have some unconditioned people, genius like Peter Tosh, Jiddu Krishnamurti, ... To make us notice what the sad truth is... They know how humanity is so easily fooled and still choose to be on the real side of unity and wake everybody up! We have to make our truth happy again!
