Plympton High Lyrics by John Schumann

True Believers

0

Grey melange pants
And a striped blue tie
My dad's old kitbag
And a shilling for a pie
Haven't done my homework
I go to Plympton High
Stop 13
And everybody's rushing
'Cause you gotta get a seat
Up the back of the bus
Bags up the front thanks
I go to Plympton High
Well we all fell in love
With little Miss Hind
She wore a miniskirt
And when she pulled down the blind
There were 35 boys
Rooting her in their mind
I can't stand up, Miss
I go to Plympton High
Maths one maths two
I didn't have a clue
History was a mystery
And French was too
Can I be excused sir?
I go to Plympton High
Me and Mossy
In the chemistry class
Trying to get our dicks
Into a conical flask
What an education
I go to Plympton High
Poison ball and pigeon toe
And brandy in the yard
We used to use a cricket ball
I suppose it was hard
Broke Russell's arm twice
I go to Plympton High
Sonia Angelinis had incredible tits
Michael McGarris had a faceful of zits
He used to squeeze them at lunchtime
And give us all the shits
They were real mirror-bangers
I go to Plympton High
Cheese beef fritz
Tomato or jam
A vegemite sandhich
And a Slippery Sam
It was food for thought
I go to Plympton High
A pie and a pasty
And a donut with a hole
And don't you put gherkin
On me double-cut roll
The money's in the bag
I go to Plympton High
The drink machine
Was always covered in ants
You could win yourself a coke
For a dollar a chance
Aw - kick it in the guts!
I go to Plympton High
Wednesday afternoon
We had football training
Saturday arvo
It'd always be raining
I didn't like cricket
A hell of a lot
'Cause every time we'd play
It'd be so fuckin' hot
Bloody nearly melted
I go to Plympton High
Well I read in the paper
Mr. Hardwicke had died
He wasn't very old
He'd just turned 55
He was in his middle 30s
When I went to Plympton High
And I don't know why
But it made me feel sad
Perhaps Mr. Hardwicke
Wasn't that bad
Yeah those were the days
When I went to Plympton High
So you went to Saints
And you went to Seymour
And you went to Princes
And you went to Pulteney
But you can't impress me
'Cause I went to Plympton High
