Movement iiSchool — текст песни (Paul McCartney)





Boys

Were here in school today to get a perfect education,

Yes, were going up.

Were keen to learn the rules and laws that civilization taught us

Yes, were growing up.

Not for ourselves, b

But for the whole world were we born.

And we were born in liverpool.



Our teachers say that ignorance will always drag us down,

Its like a nagging cough.



Shanty (thrown away)

But I can say that looking back,

The most important thing I found was sagging off!

Not for the whole world.

But for yourself were you born.

And you were...



Shanty and boys

Born in liverpool.



Boys

Not birmingham

Nor edinburgh.

Not manchester

Or sunderland.



Shanty

Being born where you were born

Carries with it certain responsibilities.



Boys

This school is good for us.



Shanty

This school is only good for those

Who want to learn from books.



Youll lose your sense of purpose...



Boys

But we dare not answer back,

Were scared of teachers looks.

Not for ourselves,

But for the whole world were we born.

And we were born in liverpool.



Shanty

Not coventry



Headmaster

Or solihull.



Boys

Not scarborough



Shanty

Nor inverness.

Being born where you were born

Carries with it certain responsibilities.



Headmaster

Walk in single file out of the classroom,

Down the stairs and into the playground.



Boys

Through the school gates,

Cross the road, and over the cemetery fence,

Down the hill to where the grave-stones

Lie inviting in the sun.



Settle down.

Settle down.

Let the afternoon slip by.

Settle down.

Settle down.

Its the perfect place for a kip.



(shanty falls asleep on a grave-stone and dreams)



Shanty



Kept in confusion,

Trapped by illusion,

Thinking of speaking my mind.

Dreams of the future,

Ghosts of the past left behind.



Constantly drifting,

Endlessly lifting

More weight than one man can bear.

Into the future,

Ghosts of the past everywhere.



Mens chorus (ghosts)

Youre sleeping amongst us,

Were in your dream,

Who are you?

Why call us?



What does this mean?

Disturbing our slumber,

You move so fast.



Shanty

Ghosts of the past.

Tossing and turning,

Somehow Im learning

Secrets Id rather not know.

Cant it be simple?

Why does it have to be so?



Mary dee (as ghost)

I ll always be here,

I ll never leave you,

I ll always be in your mind.

Dreams of the future,

Ghosts that the past left behind.



Women s chorus (ghosts)

You re sleeping amongst us.

We re in your dream.

Who are you?

Why call us?

What does this mean?



Full chorus (ghosts)

Disturbing our slumber,

You move so fast.



Shanty and mary dee (as ghost)

Ghosts of the past.



(later, back in school)



Headmaster

Boys, this is your teacher.

Her name is miss inkley.

She will reach you spanish.

She was in the war

Fighting with the troops.

You may call her sir!



Boys

Sir?



Miss inkley

First of all today

You will learn a song

In a foreign tongue.

You will follow me

As I say the words.

We will now begin...
