Belligerent ghouls
Run Manchester schoolsSpineless swines
Cemented mindsSir leads the troops
Jealous of youth
Same old suit since nineteen sixty twoHe does the military two-step down
The nape of my neckI want to go home
I don't want to stay
Give up education
As a bad mistakeMid-week on the playing fields
Sir thwacks you on the kneesKnees you in the groin
Elbow in the face
Bruises bigger than dinner platesI want to go home
I don't want to stayDa-da-da
Da-da-da
Da-da-da
Da-da-da
Da-da-da
Da-da-da
Da-da-da
Da-da-da
Da-da-da
Da-da-daBelligerent ghouls
Run Manchester schoolsSpineless bastards allSir leads the troops
Jealous of youth
Same old jokes since nineteen- oh- twoHe does the military two-step down
The nape of my neckI want to go home
I don't want to stay
Give up life
As a bad mistakePlease excuse me from gym
I've got this terrible cold coming on
He grabs and devours
He kicks me in the showers
Kicks me in the showers
And he grabs and devoursI want to go home
I don't want to stay
