Another Brick In The Wall
pink Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teacher, leave them kids alone
Hey! teacher! leave them kids alone!
All in all, it's 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
Teacher, leave them kids alone

Hey! teacher! leave those kids alone!
All in all, it's just another brick in the wall.
All in all, you're just another brick in the wall.

"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 laddie!"

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Another Brick in the Wall express a deep sense of rebellion against the oppression and conformity of the education system. The first verse of the song is a powerful statement that declares that students don't need education and they don't want to be controlled by their thoughts. The second verse emphasizes the distaste for the classroom environment where dark sarcasm in the teaching style is prevalent. The line "Teacher, leave them kids alone" is a direct appeal to the educators to let the students be themselves and not force them into a mold.


The chorus repeats the phrase "All in all, it's just another brick in the wall" which represents the idea that education is nothing but a system where students are expected to fit into predefined roles. The final line "All in all, you're just another brick in the wall" signifiers that individuality is lost in the pursuit of education.


The bridge section of the song is a confrontation between the students and the teachers where the teachers are seen as authoritarian figures who demand obedience from their students. The lines "Wrong, do it again!" and "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?" are examples of the strict and punitive nature of the education system.


Overall, Pink Turtle's Another Brick in the Wall is a statement against the standardization and control by the education system. It urges individuals to be themselves and stand up against the oppressive structures that seek to conform them into predetermined roles.
