Lyrics

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
Passin' round the ready rub
Trying not to think of when
The lunchtime bell will ring again
Oh, what fun we had
But did it really turn out bad?
All I learnt at school
Was how to bend, not break the rules
Oh, what fun we had
But at the time, it seemed so bad
Trying different ways
To make a difference to
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
Walkin' home and squashing snails
Oh, what fun we had
But did it really turn out bad?
All I learnt at school
Was how to bend, not break the rules
Oh, what fun we had
But at the time, it seemed so bad
Trying different ways
To make a difference to the days
Lots of girls and lots of boys
Lots of smells and lots of noise
Playing football in the park
Kickin' pushbikes after dark
Baggy trousers, dirty shirt
Pullin' hair and eating dirt
Teacher comes to break it up
Back of the 'ead with a plastic cup
Oh, what fun we had
But did it really turn out bad?
All I learnt at school
Was how to bend, not break the rules
Oh, what fun we had
But at the time, it seemed so bad
Trying different ways
To make a difference to the days
Baggy trousers, baggy trousers, baggy trousers
Baggy trousers, baggy trousers, baggy trousers
Baggy trousers, baggy trousers, baggy trousers
Baggy trousers, baggy trousers, baggy trousers...
