This is the school song
This is the school of song
BLACK BOX RECORDER
Welcome to the school of song
We'll help you achieve perfection
Destroy your record collection
It's for your own protections
You're late again…thank you so much for gracing us with your presence..
no really, do sit down-
And what on earth is that you're wearing
This is an educational establishment not a night club
Put your hand up. Don't mumble,
DON'T interrupt.
Wipe that idiotic smile off your face
When you're here you do what we say
Walk in the corridors,
I said walk don't run
Double detention in the school of song
Right, everybody you're going for a swim.
Get changed into your costumes and line up by the pool.
Yes I know it's February, you lot need a bit of toughening up.
You're weak and spoilt…look at you.
I don't want to hear any excuses.
Get Undressed, you're going in.
Double games in the school of song
We hope you've enjoyed your time here as much as we've enjoyed having you.
I know we haven't always seen eye to eye,
but I think you'll come to appreciate our methods when you go out into the world.
Some of you will achieve greatness,
others of you will succeed in a more modest capacity, some of you…well.
We want to read about you for the right reasons.
Congratulations to all of you.
