Baggy Trousers

Lyrics

Naughty boys in nasty schools
 Headmasters breaking all the rules
 Having fun and playing fools
 Smashing up the woodwork tools
 All the teachers in the pub
 Passing '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 days
 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
 Walking 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 (hey)
 Playing football in the park
 Kicking push bikes after dark
 Baggy trousers, dirty shirt
 Pulling hair and eating dirt
 Teacher comes to break it up
 Back of the edge 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
 Baggy trousers, baggy trousers, baggy trousers
 Baggy trousers, baggy trousers, baggy trousers
 Baggy trousers, baggy trousers, baggy trousers
