[C7]Monday morning wake up [Am]knowing that youâ??ve got to go to[C7] school
[C7]Tell your mum what to expe[Am]ct, she said it's right out of the [C7]blue
[C7]So you went to work in [Am]Debenhams, because thatâ??s what they e[C7]xpect
[C7]Start in lingerie, and D[C]oris is your supervisor.[G]
[C7]And the head said that you a[Am]lways were a queer one from the [C7]start
[C7]For careers you say you [Am]want to be remembered for your [C7]art
[C7]Your obsessions get you [Am]known throughout the school for being s[C7]trange
[C7]Making life-size models [C]of The Velvet Underground in
[G]clay
[C7]In the queue for lunch they [Am]take the p**s, youâ??ve got no app[C7]etite
[C7]And the rumor is you [Am]never go with boys and you are [C7]tight
[C7]So they jab you with a [Am]fork, you drop the tray and go [C7]berserk
[C7]While your cleaning up the [C]mess the teacher is looking up your s[G]kirt
[C]Hey, youâ??re bee[G]n used
[C]Are you calm? settle [G]down
[C]Write a song, Ill sing [G]along
[G]Soon you will know that [C7]you are sane
Youâ??re o[Am]n top of the[C] world [C7]again
Monday morning wake up knowing that youâ??ve got to go to school
Tell your mum what to expect, she said it's right out of the blue
Do you went to work in C&A, cause thatâ??s what they expect
Move to lingerie and take a feel off Joe the store man
Tell Veronica the secrets of the boy you never kissed
Sheâ??s got everything to gain cause sheâ??s a fat girl with a lisp
She sticks up for you when you get aggravation from the snobs
cause you cant afford a blazer, girl youâ??re always wearing clogs
At the interval you lock yourself away inside a room
Head of English gets you, asks you, what the hell do you think youâ??re doing?
Do you think youâ??re better then the other kids? well get outside.
Youâ??ve got permission, but youâ??ve got to make the bastard think heâ??s right
Hey, youâ??re been used
Write a song, Ill sing along
Are you calm? settle down
Soon you will know that you are sane
Youâ??re on top of the world again
