[Intro]
E Am E Am E Am E Am
[Verse 1]
E Am E
Monday morning wake up knowing that you gotta go to school
Am E
Tell your mum what to expect, she says it's right out of the blue
Am E
Do you wanna 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 wanna be remembered for your art
Am E
Your obsession gets you known throughout the school for being strange
Am F C G F
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
[Break]
E Am E Am E Am E Am F C G F
[Verse 2]
E Am E
Monday morning wake up knowing that you gotta go to school
Am E
Tell your Mum what to expect, she says it's right out of the blue
Am E
Do you wanna 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 secret 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 G F
'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 than the other kids? Well get outside."
Am F C
You've got permission, but you got to make the bastard think he's right
[Chorus]
G F
Hey, you've been used
C G F
Write a song, I'll sing along
C G F
Are you calm? Settle down
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

Monday morning wake up knowing that you’ve got to go to school
Tell your mum what to expect, she said it's right out of the blue
Do you want to work in C&A, cause that’s what they expect
Move to lingerie and take a feel off Joe the store man
Tell Veronica the secrets of the boy you never kissed
She’s got everything to gain cause she’s a fat girl with a lisp
She sticks up for you when you get aggravation from the snobs
cause you cant afford a blazer, girl you’re always wearing clogs
At the interval you lock yourself away inside a room
Head of English gets you, asks you, what the hell do you think you’re doing?
Do you think you’re better then the other kids? well get outside.
You’ve got permission, but you’ve got to make the bastard think he’s right
Hey, you’ve been used
Write a song, Ill sing along
Are you calm? settle down
Soon you will know that you are sane
You’re on top of the world again
Are you cool, and you know
You’re a star and you’ll go far
Think of me as a friend
Not just a boy who’s playing guitar
You’re on top of the world again
