  • When i was young and they packed me off to school
    And taught me how not to play the game,
    I didn't mind if they groomed me for success,
    Or if they said that i was a fool.
    So i left there in the morning
    With their god tucked underneath my arm --
    Their half-assed smiles and the book of rules.
    So i asked this god a question
    And by way of firm reply,
    He said -- i'm not the kind you have to wind up on sundays.
    So to my old headmaster (and to anyone who cares):
    Before i'm through i'd like to say my prayers --
    I don't believe you:
    You had the whole damn thing all wrong --
    He's not the kind you have to wind up on sundays.
    Well you can excomunicate me on my way to sunday school
    And have all the bishops harmonize these lines --
    How do you dare tell me that i'm my father's son
    When that was just an accident of birth.
    I'd rather look around me -- compose a better song
    `cos that's the honest measure of my worth.
    In your pomp and all your glory you're a poorer man than me,
    As you lick the boots of death born out of fear.
    I don't believe you:
    You had the whole damn thing all wrong --
    He's not the kind you have to wind up on sundays.
