Morrissey - The Teachers Are Afraid Of The Pupils Lyrics
There's too many people
Planning your downfall
When your spirit's on trial
These nights can be frightening
Sleep transports sadness
And somebody here
Will not be here next year
So you stand by the board
Full of fear and intention
And, if you think that they're listening
Well, you've got to be joking
Oh, you understand change
And you think it's essential
But when your profession
Is humiliation
We'll have you, oh yes, we'll have you
Lay a hand on our children
And it's never too late to have you
Mucus on your collar
A nail up through the staff chair
A blade in your soap
And you cry into your pillow
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
Say the wrong word to our children ...
We'll have you, oh yes, we'll have you
Lay a hand on our children
And it's never too late to have you
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
I'm very glad the spring has come
The sun shines outside bright
The little birds that are on the trees
Are singing for delight

This is a Gem of a song♥️ will play it in my funeral 😁🖖♥️💯💯💯♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ Love you Morrissey ♥️♥️ one of a kind guy I always related too.
I bought this album on the strength of this track alone in the 90s. Still sounds great. Also, had no idea Morrissey sampled a symphony of Dmitri Shostakovich for this song, that is until I heard that symphony about 5 years ago! I was like, that's super familiar and then made the connection.
SOUTHPAW GRAMMAR will always be Morrisey's most underrated record.
There's too many people
Planning your downfall
When your spirit's on trial
These nights can be frightening
Sleep transports sadness
To some other mid-brain
And somebody here
Will not be here next year
So you stand by the board
Full of fear and intention
And, if you think that they're listening
Well, you've got to be joking
Oh, you understand change
And you think it's essential
But when your profession
Is humiliation
Say the wrong word to our children...
We'll have you, oh yes, we'll have you
Lay a hand on our children
And it's never too late to have you
Mucus on your collar
A nail up through the staff chair
A blade in your soap
And you cry into your pillow
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
Say the wrong word to our children...
We'll have you, oh yes, we'll have you
Lay a hand on our children
And it's never too late to have you
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
I'm very glad the spring has come
The sun shines out so bright
All the birds that are on the trees
Are singing for delight
Morrissey is a profet
Love this song,love the subject and the dark music just makes it another masterpiece from moz and his band at the time
Sounds like a dragon ball z song in the middle of a battle
😎❤️
Extraordinary song on one of my favourite Morrissey albums.
I absolutely love this song. Thank you Morrissey.
