Version 1 Version 3[Intro] E Am E Am E Am E Am [Verse 1] E Am E Monday morning wake up knowing that you've got to go to school Am E Tell your mum what to expect, she says it's right out of the blue Am E Do you went to work in Debenham's, because that's what they expect Am F C G F Start in Lingerie, and Doris is your supervisor E Am E And the head said that you always were a queer one from the start Am E For careers you say you went to be remembered for your art Am E Your obsessions get you known throughout the school for being strange Am F C Making life-size models of the Velvet Underground in clay E Am E In the queue for lunch they take the piss, you've got no appetite Am E And the rumour is you never go with boys and you are tight Am E So they jab you with a fork, you drop the tray and go berserk Am F C While you're cleaning up the mess the teacher's looking up your skirt [Chorus] G F Hey you've been used, C G F Are you calm? Settle down C G F Write a song, I'll sing along E Soon you will know that you are sane F You're on top of the world again [Verse 2] E Am E Monday morning wake up knowing that you've got to go to school Am E Tell your Mum what to expect she says it's right out of the blue Am E Do you went to work in C&A, 'cause that's what they expect Am F C G F Move to lingerie and take a feel off Joe the store man E Am E Tell Veronica the secrets of the boy you never kissed Am E She's got everything to gain 'cause she's a fat girl with a lisp Am E She sticks up for you when you get aggravation from the snobs Am F C 'Cause you can't afford a blazer, girl you're always wearing clogs E Am E At the interval you lock yourself away inside a room Am E Head of English gets you, asks you, "what the hell do you think you're doing?" Am E "Do you think you're better then the other kids? well get outside." Am F C You've got permission, but you've got to make the bastard think he's right [Chorus] G F Hey, You've been used C G F Are you calm? Settle down C G F Write a song, I'll sing along E Soon you will know that you are sane F You're on top of the world again C G F And you're cool and you know. C G F You're a star, you'll go far C G F Think of me as a friend E Not just the boy who played guitar F You're on top of the world again.
