Schooldays

So sorry, teacher, but I don't know the things
You made me learn for today
We've got ten kids at home
Have little room although
My daddy's gone away

This is the last time
You will have had the chance
Don't you believe that
I'm your fool?
(Keep it cool)

There's a lot of work outside
Please take your books
I'd like to see you leave that school
Where is the open hand that guides me
Into a land with a friendly sky
(Oh, so wide)
