Subject: RE: anti-school songs From: MGM·Lion Date: 10 Nov 09 - 09:57 PM At both Northampton Town & County School where I was from 8-11 & Hendon County School, 11-18, the variant that would mysteriously appear 3 days before the end of every term on every blackboard, & be allowed to remain for a few hours by sporting teachers with respect for ancient traditions till the board was needed again (or anyhow that is my, perhaps somewhat romanticised recollection 60 years later), was Three more days and we shall be Out of this Land of Misery No more Latin no more French No more whacks across the bench Amazing how we never ever tired of it. True Tradition! |
Subject: RE: anti-school songs From: GUEST,Dicknose Date: 16 Oct 11 - 02:04 AM My old 4th grade friend made up this little ditty way back in '78: "Teachers are dumb, teachers are dumb, They don't even know what's one plus one." And who could ever forget this one: "School's out, school's out Teacher let the monkeys out! One went east, one went west One went up the teacher's dress!" But after high school graduation, we sang a slightly different version: "School's out, school's out Teacher let the monkeys out! One was jailed, one prevailed! Both asked God 'how have I failed?'" |

Subject: RE: anti-school songs From: GUEST,Sue Jones Date: 30 Jun 20 - 05:24 AM I remember my older brother singing this version of "Sixteen tons": Spuds of iron, peas of steel, If the dinner don't get you, then the afters will. I don't know if there's any more of it. |
