You run to the gate |
|
But you'll be marked late |
|
It's for your own good |
|
It's for your own good |
|
You're likely to make the grandest mistakes |
|
You suffer alone |
|
In the skin and the bone |
|
Let's sharpen those |
|
New sets of arrows |
|
For the next generation |
|
Of playground martyrs |
|
And join in the game |
|
Of intolerable shame |
|
'Cos everyone shares |
|
In the sins of their father's |
|
School bell rings |
|
Single file in |
|
Trade you my unhappily everafters |
|
So bring out those things |
|
To hammer out the wings |
|
Of the next generation |
|
Of playground martyrs |
