Girls' School Lyrics - Frustration Plantation - Rasputina

A happy start a sad, sad ending 

For every minute of the story 

See as their wills are broke and bending 

Save the good girls in their glory 

A primary academy where a secondary seminary 

Teaching finishing rinse, and dancing tips, and scorn 

Always concerned with plummeting virginity rates 

We lecture young girls on how babies are born 

Children, make a chain! oh, children make a chain! 

The staff here is severe, yet so altruistic 

It hurts us more than it hurts them 

The new girls are tender, the old ones sadistic 

The late janitress was a gem 

Don't belive what the boys from next door heard 

Requirements do include math 

We draw straws and put our best foot forward 

Down the straight and narrow path 

Listen to our pretty song 

We are happy as the day is long 

Forget the things you thought you knew 

We'll make a very good girl of you (x2) 

A pupil transferred here from Lavender Lake 

She wrote a winning essay on self-denial 

Some underage urchins were forced to matriculate, 

Their records kept here undefiled 

Neat retreat slips through their fingers 

Which little girl made the plan? 

Surely involved were the vespers bell-ringers 

Down a ladder, through the gate, then they ran! 

Listen to our pretty song, 

We are happy as the day is long 

Forget the things you thought you knew, 

We'll make a very good girl of you (x2) 

...and the girls ran out of the schoolyard and up the hill behind. 

"I'm scared!" said the littlest one. 

"Don't worry." said the leader. 

"They could catch us, or they could kill us, 

But they can never crush our spirit!"
