School Lyrics
Artist(Band):Supertramp Review The Song (0) Print the Lyrics School Lyrics MP3 Downloads Send Supertramp polyphonic ringtone to your cell phone I can see you in the morning when you go to school Don't forget your books, you know you've got to learn the golden rule, Teacher tells you stop your play and get on with your work And be like Johnnie - too-good, well don't you know he never shirks - he's coming along! After school is over you're playing in the park Don't be out too late, don't let it get too dark They tell you not to hang around and learn what life's about And grow up just like them - won't you let it work it out - and you're full of doubt Don't do this and don't do that What are they trying to do? Make a good boy of you Do they know where it's at? Don't criticize, they're old and wise Do as they tell you to Don't want the devil to Come and put out your eyes Maybe I'm mistaken expecting you to fight Or maybe I'm just crazy, I don't know wrong from right But while I am still living, I've just got this to say It's always up to you if you want to be that want to see that want to see it that way - you're coming along! |

So you think your schooling's phoney
I guess it's hard not to agree You say it all depends on money And who is in your family tree Right, you're bloody well right you know you got a right to say Right, you're bloody well right you know you got a right to say Ha-ha you're bloody well right you know you're right to say Yeah-yeah you're bloody well right you know you're right to say Me, I don't care anyway! Write your problems down in detail Take them to a higher place You've had your cry - no, I should say wail In the meantime hush your face Right, quite right, you're bloody well right... etc. |

Hide in your shell cos the world is out to bleed you for a ride
What will you gain making your life a little longer? Heaven or Hell, was the journey cold that gave your eyes of steel? Shelter behind painting your mind and playing joker Too Frightening to listen to a stranger Too Beautiful to put your pride in danger You're waiting for someone to understand you But you've got demons in your closet And you're screaming out to stop it Saying life's begun to cheat you Friends are out to beat you Grab on to what you scramble for Don't let the tears linger on inside now Cos it's sure time you gained control If I can help you, if I can help you If I can help you, just let me know Well, let me show you the nearest signpost To get your heartback and on the road If I can help you, if I can help you If I can help you, just let me know. All through the night as you lie awake and hold yourself so tight What do you need, a second-hand-movie-star to tend you? I as a boy, I believed the saying the cure for pain was love How would it be if you could see the world through my eyes? Too Frightening- the fire's getting colder Too Beautiful- to think you're getting older You're looking for someone to give an answer. But what you see is just an illusion You're surrounded by confusion Saying life's begun to cheat you Friends are out to beat you Grab on to what you can scramble for Don't let the tears... ... just let me know I wanna know... I wanna know you... Well let me know you I wanna feel you I wanna touch you Please let me near you Can you hear what I'm saying? Well I'm hoping, I'm dreamin', I'm prayin' I know what you're thinkin' See what you're seein' Never ever let yourself go Hold yourself down, hold yourself down Why d'ya hold yourself down? Why don't you listen, you can Trust me, There's a place I know the way to A place there is need to feel you Feel that you're alone Hear me I know exactly what you're feelin' cos all your troubles are within you please begin to see that I'm just bleeding to Love me, love you Loving is the way to Help me, help you - Why must we be so cool, oh so cool? Oh, we're such damn fools... |

Jimmy Cream was keen, his brain wal always winnin',
I can't keep tabs on mine, it's really quite a joke I see him down the road, I ask if he'd be willing Don't arrange to have me sent to no asylum To lend me 15p - I'm dying for a smoke It's a just a game I play for fun - for fun. I'm just as sane as anyone I told em - look! - I said I'm not the way you're thinkin, Just when I'm down, I'll be a clown, I'll play the fool. Please don't arrange to have me set to no asylum Will he take a sailboat ride? It's just a game I play for fun - for fun. He is very likely to, Will he feel good inside? He ain't very likely to, Will he tell you he's alive? He is always trying to In the morning when the day's begun But nothin', no nothin', does he say And in the evening or the noonday sun - "Hello Good morning, how are you?" - "What a lovely afternoon!" Well I've been living next to you I mock them all, they're feelin' small, they got no answer When they haunt me and taunt me in my cage. Bluesy Monday is the one day that they come here, Don't arrange to have me sent to no asylum They're playin' dumb but I'm just lauging as they rage It's only a game I play for fun I've been foolin' everyone - everyone. Will he take a sailboat ride? Will he fool good insidie? He is very likely to Will he tell you he's alive? He ain't ever likely to He is always tryin' to In the morning when the day's begun But nothin', no nothin' does he vere say - "Do you think it looks like rain"? And in the evening or the noonday sun Well I've been living next to you my friend - "You know I nearly missed my train" But what kind of friend are you? Is it the beginning or the sorry end? Will I ever see it through? I've never been insane Oh what's the game? I believe I'm dying... He's mad, mad, mad... Oooooooooo..........Not quite right... |

Dreamer, you know you are a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no! I said dreamer, you're nothing but a dreamer Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no! I said "Far out, - What a day, a year, a laugh it is!" You know, - Well you know you had it comin' to you, Now there's not a lot I can do Dreamer, you stupid little dreamer; So now you put your head in your hands, oh no! I said "Far out, - What a day, a year, a laugh it is!" You know, - Well you know you had it comin' to you, Now there's not a lot I can do. Well work it out someday If I could see something You can see anything you want boy If I could be someone- You can be anyone, celebrate boy. If I could do something- Well you can do something, If I could do anything- Well can you do something out of this world? Take a dream on a Sunday Take a life, take a holiday Take a lie, take a dreamer dream, dream, dream, dream, dream along... Dreamer, you know you are a dreamer Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no! I said dreamer, you're nothing but a dreamer Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no! OH NO! |

Rudy's on a train to nowhere, halfway down the line
He don't wanna get there, but he needs time He ain't sophisticated, nor well-educated After all the hours he's wasted, still he needs time He needs time - he needs time for livin' He needs time - for so |

The actors and jesters are here
The stage is in darkness and clear For raising the curtain and no-one's quite certain whose play it is How long ago, how long If only we had listened then. If we'd known just how right we were going to be. For we dreamed a lot And we schemed a lot And we tried to sing of love before the stage fell apart. If everyone was listening you know There'd be a chance that we could save the show Who'll be the last clown To bring the house down? Oh no, please no, don't let the curtain fall Well, what is your costume today? Who are the props in your play? You're acting a part which you thought from the start was an honest one. Well how do you plead? An actor indeed! Go re-learn your lines, You don't know what you've done The finale's begun. If everyone was listening you know There'd be a chance that we could save the show, Who'll be the last clown To bring the house down? Oh no, please no, don't let the curtain fall |

Now they're planning the crime of the century
Well what will it be? Read all about their schemes and adventuring It's well worth the fee So roll up and see And they rape the universe How they've gone from bad to worse Who are these men of lust, greed, and |
