Squeeze - Top of the Form

We had PE on Tuesdays and English on Wednesdays
School was a prison where I served my time
The teachers all loathed me, my attitude fooled them
They quite often nailed me to any old crime

Life was so different for underachievers
Who grew up surviving on scraps they were sent
The painters, the singers, the being unusual
They ducked and thеy dived until they werе fed

Ooh-oh-oh

Normal would send me to sleep
So I made my escape every day of the week
Normal would not teach me much
So I stayed at home, watched Starsky and Hutch
I'm top of the form, I'm top of the form

I never read Shakespeare or understood Latin
I lived in a small house with no books at all
But there was a record that I kept on playing
I had a suitcase out in the hall

Life was so different or have I just grown up
And turned into someone I feared I would be
The teacher who caned me is now on the inside
He's getting me back for my history

Ooh-oh-oh

Normal would lead me to drink
So I moved out and stuck my head in the sink
Normal meant nothing to me
But that's just the way that it turned out to be
I'm top of the form, I'm top of the form

We had fish on Friday (normal)
A roast on Sunday (normal)
And salads in summer (normal)
Were fresh from the ground
We all peeled potatoes (normal)
While mum made the crumble (normal)
My memory savours (normal)
The love that we found
