Student Power - Angelic Upstarts

Students try to put you down

Try to knock you to the ground

Because of the kind of clothes you wear

Marten boots, outrageous hair

Don’t try to push me around

I’m sick of being lost and being found

Student power what a shower

Student power what a shower

Student power what a shower

Student power what a shower

Oh what a shower

You’ve got your union rules

They’re only read by intellectual fools

Try to stop us and soon you’ll see

You’ve got answers no for kids like me

Pompous clowns they put us down

Now it’s your turn to drown

Student power what a shower

You all talk about left and right

It’s not your blood that lost in the fight

You’re our future or so they say

Wait for the day I have my say

Read all about all you like

But when we burn the books and start again

Beethoven’s Ninth all over again
