Lyrics Teach the Gifted Children - Lou Reed
Teach
the
gifted
children
Teach
them
to
have
mercy
Teach
them
about
sunsets
Teach
them
about
moonrise
Teach
them
about
anger
The
sin
that
comes
with
dawning
Teach
them
about
flowers
And
the
beauty
of
forgetfulness
Then
take
me
to
the
river
(take
me
to
the
river)
And
put
me
in
the
water
(and
put
me
in
the
water)
Bless
them
and
forgive
them
(take
me
to
the
river)
Father
′cause
they
just
don't
know
(take
me
to
the
river)
All
the
gifted
children
Teach
the
gifted
children
The
way
of
men
and
animals
Teach
them
about
cities
The
history
of
the
mysteries
Their
vice
and
their
virtues
About
branches
that
blow
in
the
wind
On
the
wages
of
their
sins
Teach
them
of
forgiveness
Teach
them
about
mercy
Teach
them
about
music
And
the
cool
and
cleansing
waters
What
do
they
say,
take
me
to
the
river
(take
me
to
the
river)
Take
me
to
the
river
(take
me
to
the
river)
Put
me
in
the
water
(take
me
to
the
river)
And
teach
the
gifted
children
(take
me
to
the
river)
All
the
gifted
children
(take
me
to
the
river)
(Take
me
to
the
river)
(Take
me
to
the
river)
