The Fall - HEY! STUDENT lyrics

When I'm walking down the street,

It's always you I seem to meet,

Long hair down and sneakers on your feet.

And write your letters to the Evening News

I clench my fist and sing this tune:

I said Hey student, hey student, hey student,

You're gonna get it through the head,

I said Hey student, hey student, hey student,

You're gonna get it through the head, I said...

When walking to work,

It's always you I seem to meet

Henna in your hair, standing in the heat

As you serve us in [motor bows] a book kid

I clench my hand before I flip my lid.

CHORUS.

When walking down the street,

It's always you I seem to meet,

Long hair down and sneakers on your feet.

As you listen to Pearl Jam in your room.

I'm thinking like that when I sing this song:

CHORUS.

I said I woka-to-ma, woka-to-ma

Woka-to-ma, wah wah wah x2

When walking down the street,

It's always you I seem to meet,

Long hair down and sneakers on your feet.

As you stare in your room at Shaun Ryder's face

Down long long long long days

CHORUS.

I said I woka-to-ma, woka-to-ma

Woka-to-ma, wah wah wah x2

The dead brains of class A-D

Born to live in Leigh-on-Sea

Twin swastikas, court, swimming pool

I'm thinking like this when I sing this tune:

CHORUS.

I said I woka-to-ma, woka-to-ma

Woka-to-ma, wah wah wah x2
