Lyrics Anti-Nowhere League

Anti-Nowhere League

Short, Sharp, Shock

When I went to school my teachers hated me

Putting me down with every opportunity

I didn't understand why I would always get it wrong

Why they got the pleasure out of beating one so young

Hauled out the classroom for wearing coloured socks

Then punched across the playground by a physcopathic yob

School days for me was a cane across my back

Detentions and exemtions with myknuckles wrapped

We will bend you... we will take you

We will mend you... we will break you

We will cage you... we will keep you

We will beat you... we will rape you

Told that I was useless and waste of space

To bully me daily put a smile upon there face

Handing out the punishment time and time again

They used the cane more offen than the pen

We will bend you... we will take you

We will mend you... we will break you

We will cage you... we will keep you

We will beat you... we will rape you

Rejected by a system I didn't understand

I learnt to cheat and fight and get the upper hand

Then uncover of the night behind the cycle shed

That bastard bully teacher... I made him squeel just like a pig.

We will bend you... we will take you

We will mend you... we will break you

We will cage you... we will keep you

We will beat you... we will rape you

The boy who needs a short sharp shock
