     Am
When we grew up and went to school
There were certain teachers who would
                  C             Am
Hurt the children any way they could
Am                             F
By pouring their derision upon anything we did
   Am
Exposing every weakness,
  Em                             Am
however carefully hidden by the kids
            D
But in the town it was well
                     A#
known when they got home at night
                    Gm
Their fat and psychopathic wives would thrash them
       C7
Within inches of their lives
