A slower angrier one. Called school. clever, right?

You first go to school feeling mentally fit
the teacher all tell you they'll have none of it

and their so nice to you that they treat you like S***
they'll verbally beat you until you submit

The kids stab your heart with their icy cold stares
break down your mind with their meaningful glares

Chorus- Oh School is such a nice place to be,
always respect the authority
Joy and laughter have both been condemned
they don't care about you but be kind to them

Now as you get older it only gets worse
in front of your parents they'll smile as rehearsed

The greet you as kindly as they can with a frown
don't try and stand, they'll insist you sit down

And if you're naughty they'll call you a fool
then run off and contradict their own rules

Chorus

You finally get out with no weight to lift
then until you retire you're a working stiff

Yes once you get in, you'll never be free,
Oh schools such a lovely old fun place to be.
