The Headmaster Ritual Songtext

von Johnny Marr

Belligerent Ghouls,
Run manchester schools,
Spineless swines,
Cemented minds,
Sir leads the troops
Jealous abuse
Same old since 1962,
He does the military two-step down,
The nape of my neck,
I wanna go home
I don't wanna stay
Give up education as a bad mistake,
Midweek on the playing fields,
Sir thwacks you on the knees,
Knees you in the groin,
Elbow in the face,
Bruises bigger than dinner-plates!
I wanna go home,
I don't wanna stay,
*Moz-esque yodelling*
Belligerent Ghouls,
Run Manchester schools,
Spineless bastards all,
Sir leads the troops,
Jealous of you,
Same old joke since 1982
He does the military two-step down,
The nape of my neck,
I wanna go home,
I don't wanna stay,
Give up life as a bad mistake,
Please excuse me from Gym,
I've got this terrible cold coming on
He grabs and devours
He kicks me in the showers
He kicks me in the showers and he grabs and devours
I, want to go home,
I don't wanna stay
*More Moz-moans*
