[Verse 1]
Conditioned by social normals
Parent prejudice sponge absorbed
Us and them divide deep imbibed
Every flower blossoms in their time
[Chorus]
Even seers sight of their time
Even you and I of our time
[Verse 2]
Conditioned by blinkered vision
British Empire taught in classroom
Exploitation never mentioned
Every child pupil’d of their time
[Repeat Chorus]
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
Conditioned by propaganda
We the good guys, they the bad guys
Communism always evil
Every sermon preached of its time
[Repeat Chorus]
