Dear Miss,
I hadn't intended on a second letter,
But I’m sad to say my situation isn’t any better,
The school works not easy but the laughter is harder
’Cause every day I’m swept away in constant drama
Last week, you met my Dad at parents evening
He asked how my work was and if I was achieving
You said,I was doing ok but I’m a little quiet
It’s funny ‘cause inside my head rages a riot
If you knew me better, you’d have probably said
I’ve got love in my heart and brains in my head
My dad would have liked that, he’d have been so proud
But instead I’m just keeping
My head down My head down I’ve got love in my heart and brains in my head And I’m raging a riot with my head down
I’ve got something on my mind and I’ve got to confess
'Cause I now know your postcode, I’ve got your address
I needed a way to cope with my stress
So I followed you home, and I watched you undress
I didn’t mean any harm, just to know about your life
Do you have any kids, why are you not a wife?
With this headache of reality, I need to be distracted
This is how I justify the way that I acted
I can’t believe you’re renting out a ground floor flat
Come on, Miss, you deserve better than that
It’s embarrassing the school don’t pay you enough,
Stand your ground and tell ‘em you don’t work just for love
Please write back to me, miss, It isn’t breaking the law
Just leave your letter by the bins outside your front door
I’ll come and pick it up,
Sending all of my love,
Your friend.
ENSEMBLE
Head down
Head down
Love in my heart and brains in my head
Head down
