- Lyrics

   Naughty boys in nasty schools 
   Headmasters breaking all the rules 
   Having fun and playing fools 
   Smashing up the woodwork tools 
   All the teachers in the pub 
   Passing 'round the ready-rub 
   Trying not to think of when 
   The lunch-time bell will ring again. 
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/madness/baggy_trousers_tab.html ]
   Oh what fun we had 
   But, did it really turn out bad 
   All I learnt at school 
   Was how to bend not break the rules 
   Oh what fun we had 
   But at the time it seemed so bad 
   Trying different ways 
   To make a difference to the days. 

   Headmaster's had enough to-day 
   All the kids have gone away 
   Gone to fight with next-door's school 
   Every term, that is the rule 
   Sits alone and bends his cane 
   Same old backsides again 
   All the small ones tell tall tales 
   Walking home and squashing snails. 

   Oh what fun we had 
   But, did it really turn out bad 
   All I learnt at school 
   Was how to bend not break the rules 
   Oh what fun we had 
   But at the time it seemed so bad 
   Trying different ways 
   To make a difference to the days. 

   Lots of girls and lots of boys 
   Lots of smells and lots of noise 
   Playing football in the park 
   Kicking Pushbikes after dark 
   Baggy trousers, dirty shirt 
   Pulling hair and eating dirt 
   Teacher comes to break it up 
   Bang on the 'ead with a plastic cup. 

   Oh what fun we had 
   But, did it really turn out bad 
   All I learnt at school 
   Was how to bend not break the rules 
   Oh what fun we had 
   But at the time it seemed so bad 
   Trying different ways 
   To make a difference to the days. 

   Baggy trousers, baggy trousers, baggy trousers 
   Baggy trousers, baggy trousers, baggy trousers 

This is my first complete tab, hope you enjoyed!
