School

Cantante: Supertramp



I can see you in the morning when you go to schoolDon’t forget your books, you know you’ve got to learn the golden ruleYour teacher tells you stop your playing, get on with your workAnd be like Johnnie-Too-good, don’t you know he never shirksHe’s coming along
After school is over, you’re playing in the parkDon’t be out too late, don’t let it get too darkThey tell you not to hang around and learn what life’s aboutAnd grow up just like them, won’t you let it work it outAnd you’re full of doubt
Don’t do this and don’t do thatWhat are they trying to do?(Make a good boy of you)And do they know where it’s at?Don’t criticize, they’re old and wiseDo as they tell you toDon’t want the devil toCome and put out your eyes
Maybe I’m mistaken expecting you to fightOr maybe I’m just crazy, I don’t know wrong from rightBut while I’m still living, I’ve just got this to sayIt’s always up to you if you want to be thatWant to see that, want to see that wayYou’re coming along

Questa musica stridente, strisciante, ti prende e ti fa sentire assolutamente a disagio ma non puoi farne a meno. È lo scopo di questa canzone brevissima ma totalmente stupenda. La senti l’invadente presenza della società che ti dice sempre cosa fare e cosa non fare. Bellissima
