Madness - Baggy Trousers Lyrics
Naughty boys in nasty schoolsHeadmasters breaking all the rulesHaving fun and playing foolsSmashing up the woodwork toolsAll the teachers in the pubPassing round the ready-rubTrying not to think of whenThe lunch-time bell will ring again.Oh what fun we hadBut, did it really turn out badAll I learnt at schoolWas how to bend not break the rulesOh what fun we hadBut at the time it seemed so badTrying different waysTo make a difference to the days.Headmasters had enough to-dayAll the kids have gone awayGone to fight with next-doors schoolEvery term, that is the ruleSits alone and bends his caneSame old backsides againAll the small ones tell tall talesWalking home and squashing snails.Oh what fun we hadBut, did it really turn out badAll I learnt at schoolWas how to bend not break the rulesOh what fun we hadBut at the time it seemed so badTrying different waysTo make a difference to the days.Lots of girls and lots of boysLots of smells and lots of noisePlaying football in the parkKicking pushbikes after darkBaggy trousers, dirty shirtPulling hair and eating dirtTeacher comes to break it upBack of the ead with a plastic cup.Oh what fun we hadBut, did it really turn out badAll I learnt at schoolWas how to bend not break the rulesOh what fun we hadBut at the time it seemed so badTrying different waysTo make a difference to the days.Baggy trousers, baggy trousers, baggy trousersBaggy trousers, baggy trousers, baggy trousers
