Simon Townshend - Good Boys Lyrics

At the back of the classroom Jimmy's sitting and thinking

Just wants the sun to keep on shining

His desk has got his life story written on it

His girlfriend's name and number on it

He's really glad his desk is by the window

Teacher's talking thinking Jimmy is listening

But the Crimean war just don't interest him

Have to leave the class for a minute boys

Turn to page one hundred and fifty four, I wanna see you

Gonna through the paces, paces, paces paces

Everybody's gonna be a good boy

Everybody gonna be good

Awful nice now do what you're doing

Everybody do what you should …oh oh

I want to see you going through the paces, paces

Teacher talking thinking Jimmy is listening

But the Crimean war just don't interest him

Have to leave the class for a minute boys

Turn to page one hundred and fifty boys

I wanna see you going through the paces, paces, paces, paces

Everybody gonna be a good boy, everybody gonna be good

All be nice now, do what you doing

Everybody do what you should …oh oh

Paces, paces, going through the paces, paces

Going through the paces, paces

Going through the motions, paces

Oh everybody gonna be a good boy

Everybody gonna be good
