Teach The World Lyrics - Lucky Dube

It takes a million people 

To build up a good reputation 

But it takes one stupid fool 

To destroy everything they done 

The world knows your people as 

The most violent in the world 

The world knows your nation as 

The most oppresive in the world 

Take it upon yourself 

To restore your nation's dignity 

yo ho ho ho ho ho ho 

Chorus: 

Teach the world 

Teach them right 

It takes a million lives 

To get the respect you deserve 

When people see your kind 

Some of them would run a mile 

The world knows your people as 

A nation of crooks 

Everyone around you should 

Always keep their eyes opened 

The world knows your nation as 

A nation of drug lords 

Everyone blames your people 

For the destruction of the world 

Take it upon yourself 

To restore your nation's dignity 

ho ho ho ho ho ho
