Monday morning wake up knowing that you\u2019ve got to go to school
\nTell your mum what to expect, she said it’s right out of the blue
\nYou went to work in Debenhams, because that\u2019s what they expect
\nStart in lingerie, and Doris is your supervisor<\/p>\n

And the head said that you always were a queer one from the start
\nFor careers you say you want to be remembered for your art
\nYour obsessions get you known throughout the school for being strange
\nMaking life-size models of The Velvet Underground in clay<\/p>\n

In the queue for lunch they take the piss, you\u2019ve got no appetite
\nAnd the rumor is you never go with boys and you are tight
\nSo they jab you with a fork, you drop the tray and go berserk
\nWhile your cleaning up the mess the teacher is looking up your skirt<\/p>\n

Hey, you\u2019re been used
\nAre you calm? settle down
\nWrite a song, Ill sing along
\nSoon you will know that you are sane
\nYou\u2019re on top of the world again<\/p>\n

Monday morning wake up knowing that you\u2019ve got to go to school
\nTell your mum what to expect, she said it’s right out of the blue
\nDo you went to work in C&A, cause that\u2019s what they expect
\nMove to lingerie and take a feel off Joe the store man<\/p>\n

Tell Veronica the secrets of the boy you never kissed
\nShe\u2019s got everything to gain cause she\u2019s a fat girl with a lisp
\nShe sticks up for you when you get aggravation from the snobs
\ncause you cant afford a blazer, girl you\u2019re always wearing clogs<\/p>\n

At the interval you lock yourself away inside a room
\nHead of English gets you, asks you, what the hell do you think you\u2019re doing?
\nDo you think you\u2019re better then the other kids? well get outside.
\nYou\u2019ve got permission, but you\u2019ve got to make the bastard think he\u2019s right<\/p>\n

He, you\u2019re been used
\nWrite a song, Ill sing along
\nAre you calm? settle down
\nSoon you will know that you are sane
\nYou\u2019re on top of the world again<\/p>\n

Are you cool, and you know
\nYou\u2019re a star and you\u2019ll go far
\nThink of me as a friend
\nNot just a boy who\u2019s playing guitar
\nYou\u2019re on top of the world again<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
