Monday morning wake up knowing that you´ve gotta go to school Tell your Mum what to expect, she says "It´s right out of the blue" Do you went to work in Debenham´s, because that´s what they expect
Start in lingerie and Doris is your supervisor And the head said "That you always were a queer one from the start" For careers you say you wanna be remembered for your art Your obsessions get you known throughout the school for being strange Making life-size models of the velvet underground in clay In the queue for lunch they take the piss, you´ve got no appetite And the rumor is you never go with boys that you are tight So they jab you with a fork, you drop the tray and go berserk While you´re cleaning up the mess the teacher´s looking up your skirt Hey you´ve been used
Why you can´t settle down? Write a song, I´ll sing along Soon you will know that you are sane You´re on top of the world again Monday morning wake up knowing that you´ve got to go to school Tell your Mum what to expect, she says "It´s right out of the blue" You wanna work in C&A, ´cause that´s what they expect Move to lingerie and take a feel off Joe the store man Tell Veronica the secrets of the boy you never kissed She´s got everything to gain ´cause she´s a fat girl with a lisp She sticks up for you when you get aggravation from the snobs
´Cause you can´t afford a blazer girl you´re always wearing clogs At the interval you lock yourself away inside a room Head of English gets you asks you "What the hell do you think you´re doing?" Do you think you´re better then the other kids? Well get outside You´ve got permission, you´ve got to make the bastard think he´s right Hey you´ve been used Write a song, I´ll sing along Why you can´t settle down? Soon you will know that you are sane You´re on top of the world again Are you true and you know You´re a star and you´ll go far Listen to me as a friend not just look okay guitar
