Xtc - Playground Lyrics
I climb up, spending daylightSlide down drunken on the other sideSome sweet girl, playing my wife,Runs off with a boy whose bike shell ridePlayground (its a playground)Marked by the masters and bruised by the bullies in thePlayground (its a playground)Never stop rehearsing, rehearsing for the big square worldBells will ring, door flings openHare and greyhound in the old kiss chaseYouve been caught, game has endedSmack on kisser from her slap on facePlayground (its a playground)Were marked by the masters and bruised by the bullies in thePlayground (its a playground)Never stop rehearsing, rehearsing for the big square worldWatch the leaves all tear away (one by one)Leaving you but lined like an exercise bookWhat did your report once say (know the one)This boy must try harder to pleaseFrom down on his kneesPlayground, playground, playground, playground, playground,Playground, playground, playgroundBrain gets bent, heart gets brokenYou cant jump off once the page is turnedSchool is out but never overThats the only lesson you can learnPlayground (its a playground)Were marked by the masters and bruised by the bullies in thePlayground (its a playground)Never stop rehearsing, rehearsing for the big squarePlayground (its a playground)Go for the high jump if you let em push you in thePlayground (its a playground)Theres no escaping, escaping from their big square worldYou may leave school, but it never leaves you
