The Headmaster Ritual

[Verse 1] Belligerent ghouls Run Manchester schools Spineless swines Cemented minds Sir leads the troops Jealous of youth Same old suit since 1962 He does the military two-step Down the nape of my neck [Chorus 1] I want to go home I don't want to stay Give up education As a bad mistake [Verse 2] Mid-week on the playing fields Sir thwacks you on the knees Knees you in the groin Elbow in the face Bruises bigger than dinner plates [Chorus 2] I want to go home I don't want to stay [Verse 3] Belligerent ghouls Run Manchester schools Spineless bastards all Sir leads the troops Jealous of youth Same old jokes since 1982 He does the military two-step Down the nape of my neck [Chorus 3] I want to go home I don't want to stay Give up life As a bad mistake [Verse 4] Please 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 devours [Chorus 2] I want to go home I don't want to stay
