A trumpet you can blow and a book of rules

D A

On what to say to people when they pick on you

Cos if you stay with us you're gonna be pretty kookie too

CHORUS, INTRO

And if you ever have to go to school

Remember how they messed up this old fool

Don't pick fights with the bullies or the cads

Cos I'm not much cop at punching other people's dads

And if the homework brings you down

Then we'll throw it on the fire

And take the car downtown
