Welcome to the school of song (This is the school song)
We'll help you achieve perfection (This is the school song)
Destroy your record collection (This is the school song)
It's for your own protection (This is the school song)

You're late again
Thank you so much for gracing us with your presence
No really, do sit down
And what on earth is that you're wearing?
This is an educational establishment, not a night club
Put your hand up
Don't mumble
Don't interrupt
Wipe that idiotic smile off your face
When you're here, you do what I say
Walk in the corridors
I said walk, don't run
Double detention in the school of song

This is the school song
This is the school song
This is the school song
This is the school song
This is the school song

Welcome to the school of song (This is the school song)
We'll help you achieve perfection (This is the school song)
Destroy your record collection (This is the school song)
It's for your own protection (This is the school song)

Right everybody
You're going for a swim
Get changed into your costumes, and line up by the pool
Yes, I know it's February
You lot need a bit of toughening up
You're weak and spoilt
Look at you
I don't want to hear any other excuses
Girls and boys of this school fought and died in the war, you know
Get undressed
You're going in
Double games in the school of song

We hope you've enjoyed your time here
As much as we've enjoyed having you
I know we haven't always seen eye to eye
But I think you'll come to appreciate our methods
When you go out into the world
Some of you will achieve greatness
Others of you will succeed in a more modest capacity
Some of you
Well, we want to read about you for the right reasons
Congratulations to all of you
