[00:25.95] Anthony, bullied at school
[00:30.52] Get your own back now you are cool
[00:35.60] Or are you scared bunking off though you're a toff?
[00:42.15] It's all gone wrong again, you've got Double Maths.
[00:46.19]
[00:47.56] But the teacher's got no control
[00:52.90] The boys all run riot
[00:55.78] "You will stay quiet or you will die."
[01:01.85]
[01:06.19] Tony, at the back of the gym
[01:11.22] Smoke another one, your chances are slim,
[01:16.63] 'Cause here they come again
[01:18.71] And they got you on the ground.
[01:23.18] Tasting blood again;
[01:25.88] At least it's your own.
[01:27.39]
[01:28.85] When will you realize it doesn't pay
[01:34.38] To be smarter than teachers, smarter than most boys?
[01:41.01] "So shut your mouth, start kicking the football."
[01:46.95] Bang on the teeth. You are off for a week, boy.
[01:53.29]
[01:56.03] You may as well take it in the guts, it can't get worse.
[02:02.86] Just take it in the guts, it can't get worse than this.
[02:10.29]
[02:11.09] 'Cause you'll soon be old enough to leave them
[02:15.09] Without a notion of a care
[02:17.89] You'll leave two fingers in the air
[02:23.81] To linger there.
[02:26.35]
[02:30.32] Tony, you're a bit of a mess;
[02:35.21] Melted Toblerone under your dress.
[02:40.46] If the kids could see you they would pass you right by.
[02:47.20] Blue mascara running over your eye.
[02:51.34]
[02:52.69] When will you realize it doesn't pay
[02:58.19] To be smarter than teachers, smarter than most boys?
[03:04.75] "Shut your mouth, start kicking the football"
[03:10.74] Bang on the teeth. You were off for a week, boy.
[03:17.02]
[03:22.83] (Anthony. it could be worse)
[03:28.51] (Anthony, it could be worse)
[03:32.02]
[03:32.38] They call you Lord Anthony but hey, it could be worse.
[03:38.64] Lord Anthony but hey, it could be worse.
[03:44.45] Lord Anthony but hey, it kind of suits you anyway...
[03:51.77]
[03:52.90] You'll soon be old enough to leave them
[03:56.51] Without a notion of a care
[03:59.13] You'll leave two fingers in the air
[04:05.52] To linger there.
