when i was in high school
i did real naughty things
like talk back to the teachers
in church i wouldn't sing
now i know right now you staggered
by this here little faggot
but listen up here this shit
is why i swagger
i got detention twice
the first was for swearin
i said
fuck i fucking forgot my fuckin english assignmenn
the second was for waggin out there on the streets
that detention i was given some nice sweets
my hood was westfield hurstvile
danebank school for girls
mayn you don't wanna know what went down
in that world
that shit will make your stinter wanna curl
up inside of you cos get this this is shit real
i didn't make it up
in pe they taught us how to walk in heels
no self defence or sex ed recompense
just how to be a lady and so
fuck all this is what i said

i said
fuck you high school
fuck you miss bird
fuck you laura
for trippin me up
fuck you danebank
fuck you high school
I'm gonna be a rapper
and grow up to be cool

this one time in assembly
said hi enthusiastically
way too happy they said
so inferred be miserable instead
say it in a sing song voice
you don't have another choice
toe the line and choke in time
they're like
we want you to grow up
to be upstanding members of society
with the right balance of piety and social anxiety
no variety or impropriety
high society in sobriety
I'm tired of these
motherfuckas simply put it's bullshit
I'm full up with it
I'm no debutante
thats ]not what i want
in my life i wanna be me
don't wanna be something you want me to be
no i don't believe that shit you fed me
about the holy trinity
and frankly I'm angry cos of those lies told to me
but its okay i worked it out ms hartley
do you ever lose sleep over the brainless
debris you leave lying in your trustees
so full of bigotry thinking we know so much better
keeping jesus as our debtor thinking its some
fairytale that put that sweater on our backs
its a trap kids don't listen think it through
those lies were made up to get the bread and butter
but i know i know i know now I'm twenty four
i know i don't know everything
i know like everyone else I'm heading for the morgue
not some place on high I'm worm food and thats cool and you know why
I'm one of the lucky ones eh dawkins, cos i get to die
so i said

i said
fuck you high school
fuck you miss bird
fuck you laura
for trippin me up
fuck you danebank
fuck you high school
I'm gonna be a rapper
and grow up to be cool
