  Naughty boys in nasty schools, headmaster’s breaking all the rules 

  Having fun and playing fools, smashing up the woodwork tools 

  All the teachers in the pub, passing 'round the ready-rub 

  Trying not to think of when the lunchtime bell will ring again

  R1:
  Oh, what fun we had but did it really turn out bad? 

  All I learnt at school was how to bend not break the rule 

  Oh, what fun we had but at the time it seemed so bad 

  Trying different ways to make a difference to

  S2:
  The headmaster’s had enough today, all the kids have gone away 

  Gone to fight with next door’s school, every term that is the rule 

  Sits alone and bends his cane, same old backsides again 

  All the small ones tell tall tales, walking home and squashing snails

  S3:
  Lots of girls and lots of boys, lots of smells and lots of noise 

  Playing football in the park, kicking pushbikes after dark 

  Baggy trousers, dirty shirt, pulling hair and eating dirt 

  Teacher comes to break it up, back of the head with a plastic cup
