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 lunch-time bell will ring...

    It's about how you used to have fun as a kid.

    I'm with ya... I love the way it just commentates on what school is really like... In the end school isn't a drag...

    It's about being at school, about getting away with bending the rules and how the teachers spent most of the time at the pub. The schools fought each other each term, noone ever learnt everything, it was good fun but it wasn't so bad looking back. School is a good laugh, it's part of growing up, though you might not learn that much from it.
