Schooldays - The Kinks

Schooldays Lyrics

The bell rings
And all things are calling
The days past
The play's cast
Remember
September
When we were
Together, together, togetherSchooldays, the happy days
When we were going nowhere
Schootime, the happy time
When we were feeling no careSchooldays when three said
That we'd better be friends forever
How long is ever isn't it strange
Schooldays together why do they change
How long is ever isn't it strangeDid kites fly
And I spy
And you cry to run fast
Or come last

You know how we made vows
They're gone now
We made friends, we broke friends
No more friendsSchooldays, the happy days
When we were going nowhere
Schootime, the happy time
When we were feeling no careHow long is ever isn't it strange
Schooldays together why do they change
How long is ever isn't it strange
Schooldays together why do they change
How long is ever isn't it strange
Schooldays together why do they changeHow long is ever isn't it strange
Schooldays together why do they change
How long is ever isn't it strange
Schooldays together why do they change
How long is ever isn't it strange
Schooldays together why do they changeRemember
Remember when we
Together
Went to the seaSeagull's scream and pink ice cream
And the deep blue sky and the waves seem high
And golden sand and the town
Brass band plays onWait for me
Wait for us always
Wait for me
Wait for us to comeMister Watson wants to see you
In the master's room
It's about the work you should have done
And I think you must go nowWe may go
Go, go, goHow long is ever isn't it strange
Schooldays together why do they change
How long is ever isn't it strange
Schooldays together why do they change
How long is ever isn't it strange
Schooldays together why do they change
How long is ever isn't it strange
Schooldays together why do they change
