We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! teachers! leave the kids alone!
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.
We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! teacher! leave us kids alone!
All in all you're just a another brick in the wall
.
All in all you're just a another brick in the wall.

-smooth guitar solo-

"Wrong, do it again!"
"Wrong, do it again!"
"If you don't eat yer meat, you can't have any pudding. how can you




Have any pudding if you don't eat yer meat?"

"you! yes, you behind the bikesheds, stand still laddy!"

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Another Brick in the Wall" by Pink Floyd convey an anti-establishment message that critiques the education system's suffocating nature. The song asserts that the education system is rigid and hostile to creativity and individuality. The message highlights how education stifles free thought, imagination and critical thinking. The lyrics assert that the teachers exhibit sadistic tendencies and do not pay much attention to the children's psychological well-being. Kids are figuratively bricks in the wall, and the strict education system is working to build identical bricks.


The lyrics of the chorus "All in all, you're just another brick in the wall" indicate that the education system is not interested in cultivating independent individuals - they are merely pieces of societal infrastructure that are indistinguishable from one another. The singer of the song ultimately rejects the conformity and monotony the education system tries to impose concluded through the iconic chorus line.


The wall referred to in the song is a metaphorical one that represents the barriers individuals build around themselves that hinder communication and fulfilling human connection. The lyrics call on individuals to reject conformity and celebrate their uniqueness, imagination, and creative spirits.
