School Lyrics

I can see you in the morning when you go to school 

Don't forget your books, you know you've got to learn the golden rule, 

Teacher tells you stop your play and get on with your work 

And be like Johnnie - too-good, well don't you know he never shirks 

- he's coming along! 

After School is over you're playing in the park 

Don't be out too late, don't let it get too dark 

They tell you not to hang around and learn what life's about 

And grow up just like them - won't you let it work it out 

- and you're full of doubt 

Don't do this and don't do that 

What are they trying to do? 

- Make a good boy of you 

Do they know where it's at? 

Don't criticise, they're old and wise 

Do as they tell you to 

Don't want the devil to 

Come out and put your eyes 

Maybe I'm mistaken expecting you to fight 

Or maybe I'm just crazy, I don't know wrong from right 

But while I am still living, I've just got this to say 

It's always up to you if you want to be that 

want to see that 

want to see that way 

- you're coming along!
