The Headmaster Ritual Lyrics

     Belligerent ghouls
     run Manchester schools
     spineless swines
     cemented mines
     Sir leads the troops
     jealous of youth 
     same old suit since 1962
     he does the military two-step
     down the nape of my neck
     I wanna go home
     I don't want to stay 
     give up education 
     is a bad mistake
     mid-week on the playing fields
     Sir thwacks you on the knees
     knees you in the groin
     elbow in the face
     I wanna go home
     I don't want to stay 

     Belligerent ghouls
     run Manchester schools
     spineless bastards all
     Sir leads the troops
     jealous of youth 
     same old jokes since 1902
     he does the military two-step
     down the nape of my neck
     I wanna go home
     I don't want to 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
     kicks me in the showers
     and he grabs and devours
     I wanna go home
     I don't want to stay
