Lyrics School Mam - The Stranglers
A
fine
day
for
the
classroom
and
the
pupils
are
here
Timmy's
got
a
headache
but
the
others
don't
care
Sarah's
got
to
stay
behind
and
help
with
the
drill
Teacher's
got
his
eye
on
her
moves
in
for
the
kill
Nobody
can
see
or
hear
the
things
that
they
do
All
the
books
are
closed
there
must
be
something
they
do
Only
teacher
knows
about
the
subjects
they
span
span
Education's
secondary
- being
a
school
man
Oooey
... teacher's
doing
fine
as
far
as
I
can
see
Being
a
school
man
Long
holidays
in
the
summer
Being
a
school
man
Free
milk
in
your
coffee
breaks
Being
a
school
man
Government
paid
monthly
salary
cheques
Being
a
school
man
Noise
is
heard
the
principal
investigates
She
turns
on
all
the
cameras
and
it's
too
late
Catches
both
their
pants
down
in
a
passion
warm
Hasn't
seen
it
happen
since
the
day
she
was
born
Reaches
down
for
glasses
that
just
can't
be
found
By
the
time
she
finds
them
- why
they're
down
on
the
ground
Tossing
and
a'turning
they've
got
feverish
hands
Life
can
be
so
fluid
when
you're
being
a
school
man
Oooey
... teacher's
doing
fine
as
far
as
I
can
see
Being
a
school
man
Controlling
promiscuity
after
hours
Being
a
school
man
Giving
out
detentions
by
the
dozen
Being
a
school
man
Give
her
fifty
lines
(of
speed)
Being
a
school
man
Sucking
on
her
fingernails
can't
believe
what
she's
seen
She
seems
so
engrossed
at
what
appears
on
the
screen
Locks
her
door
with
trembling
hands
Her
heart's
beating
fast
she
pretends
she's
down
there
On
the
floor
in
the
class
Gives
herself
to
teacher
although
he
doesn't
know
Works
herself
into
a
frenzied
state
and
it
shows
Sarah's
almost
at
the
top
but
try
as
she
can
She
can't
reach
her
helter
skelter
down
with
the
school
man
Just
watch
her
go
and
help
her
try
if
you
can
Use
your
twentieth
century
imagination
if
you've
got
any
Oooey
... now
she's
at
the
top
and
teacher
sets
her
free
Being
a
school
man
Disgusting
behaviour
Being
a
school
mam
All
over
the
parquet
flooring
Being
a
school
man
Let
the
flood
gates
open
wide
Being
a
school
man
Now
the
principal
collapses
dead
on
the
floor
With
Contentment
on
her
wrinkled
old
face
ever
more
She
went
out
the
very
best
way
that
an
old
woman
can
She
was
where
the
action
was
down
there
with
the
school
man
Oooey
... teacher
never
will
discover
who
could
see
Being
a
school
man
One
and
one
make
two
if
you
are
very
lucky
Being
a
school
man
Two
twos
make
four
if
I
remember
correctly
Being
a
school
man
Four
fours
make
sixteen
and
sixteen's
over
age
Sixteen
and
sixteen
make
thirty-two,
that's
approaching
middle
age
Thirty-two
and
thirty-two
make
sixty-four,
that's
OAP
land
Sixty-four
and
sixty-four
make
one-hundred-and-twenty-eight
One-hundred-and-twenty-eight
divided
by
three
Let
me
pause
for
reflection
for
a
second
But
teacher
Three
does
not
go
into
one-hundred-and-twentyeight
exactly
But
it
goes
forty-two
and
a
bit
