Lyrics

I saw Paul and Art in Central Park
An Opera, a funny play
Learned how the pyramids got their start
I toured Europe in a day
Saw a doc about the eskimos
And white bears on an arctic plain
Heard people saying ‘dontcha know’
And old man baseball in PA

I learned from a wiseman to be a neighbor and a friend
Now I’m watching PBS late at night, I’m Just taking some more in

Learned about the war in ‘nam
And protest in the street
Learned of agent orange and napalm
I’m hoping history don’t repeat
But a Pittsburgh man’s tv show
It taught the brighter way
To love, to understand, to know
Things a pure in heart would say

I learned from a wiseman to be a neighbor and a friend
Now I’m watching PBS late at night, I’m Just taking some more in

You don’t need a million dollars
Don’t need a private plane
Don’t need to hate what you don’t know
When God loves us all the same
Don’t need commercials or corporate greed
Just bunny ears and time
They been showing something useful since 1969

Don’t need commercials or corporate greed
Just bunny ears and time
They been showing something useful since 1969

I learned from a wiseman to be a neighbor and a friend
Now I’m watching PBS late at night, I’m Just taking some more in
