School - The Auteurs

I am waiting for a man

To collect me from the station

He will drive me past your house

And the bridge and the precinct

Later on he’ll stuff my mouth

With flies, sit astride me

I am waiting for a man

To collect me from the station

And the kids around the flats

The mums and dads, your uncle

And I’m never going back

To your old school

Some blank verse from Michael Ray

Blue and white power on his fifteenth

Join the army or the National Front

When you’re sixteen

Mickey says you were undressed

Easily led in the back field

Maybe I could come around

Your brother’s out, cop a feel

And the kids around the flats

The mums and dads, your uncle

And I’m never going back

To your old school, school

I am standing in the front room

With your mother and your father

I am talking to a man

Who says he baptized you

On the way back from the church

Your brother got home early

I am waiting for a man

To collect me from the station

Does the aerosol on brick

Just make you think you still rule?

And I’m never going back

To your old school

And the kids around the flats

The mums and the dads, your uncle

And I’m never going back

To your old school, to your old school
