Now hear this



What did you learn at school today ?

That's what the teachers used to say

But they don't know 

Don't understand, do they ?

Why do they always give advice ?

Saying "Just be nice, always think twice"

When it's been a long since they had a teenage life



What did you learn at school today ?

That's what the teachers used to say

But they don't know 

Don't understand, do they ?

Why do they always give advice

Saying "Just be nice, always think twice"

When it's been a long time since they had a teenage life



Dwelling on the past, from back when I was young

Thinking of my school days and trying to write this song

Classroom schemes and dreams

Man they couldn't save me

Cos my days were numbered when I signed down on “Avy”

Teenage kicks running out what could we do

I still show respect to my boys who made it through

And getting told off Mr T how my life would be

Then giving him a signal 

So everyone could see

Sunshine and shade

Those girls I'd serenade

Thinking of those sixth form chicks that misbehave

Hoping that those days would go on and on forever

Every day something new

Just friends running together

But suddenly school ends

Your teenage life gone

All your mates are growing up now

They're moving on

And now I'm looking back

I'll tell you what I know

Do you listen to your teacher ?

No I don't think so



"What did you learn at school today?"

That's what the teachers used to say

But they don't know 

Don't understand, do they ?

Why do they always give advice

Saying "Just be nice, always think twice"

When it's been a long time since they had a teenage life



And if you give the kids time, they won't do the crime

Ooh ooh ooh shine

Now if you treat the kids fine, together they will shine

Won't do the crime



Now my bad old ways

Were during my school days

Messing on those grade A's

My life is just a haze

I'm going through the struggle

Five ten and kicking back

So I could lock my flow

Lace it up now on the track

Oh yeh I felt the pain

Whilst chasing all the fame

I'm being told I'm nothing 

Just a player in the game

But now I walk tall

Stand proud for you to see

I'm driving these fast cars

It's five stars for me



"What did you learn at school today?"

That's what the teachers used to say

But they don't know 

Don't understand, do they?

Why do they always give advice

Saying "Just be nice, always think twice"

When it's been a long time since they had a teenage life
