Suspended

Clacton County High School. A typical day for me in 1982. Perhaps a Generation X thing. Perhaps still ongoing for the kids who operate differently. I just so didn't want to be there. I think the feeling was mutual.

From the Lunatics & Space Age Watches collection.

Daydream - They scream

Sit now in the dock

Teacher - Preacher

Oversees the flock

Daydream – They scream

Snap back from the joy

Teacher - Preacher

Stupid little boy

Daydream – They scream

Everyone in shock

Teacher - Preacher

Culling cattle stock

Daydream – They scream

Disruptive not engaged

Teacher – Preacher

Management of rage

Daydream – They scream

People they can’t see

Magnus Pyke with flailing arms

And David Bellamy

Daydream – They scream

Splitting atoms in a bog

Teacher – Preacher

Poison from a frog

Daydream – They scream

Tutors are not here

Teacher – Preacher

It’s you who disappeared

Daydream – They scream

What harm has been done

Teacher – Preacher

There’s always sodding one

Daydream – They scream

Re-enforce the rules

Teacher – Preacher

Loose inside our schools

Daydream – They scream

What’s your problem? Are you thick?

Teacher – Preacher

I’ve called you a prick

Daydream - They scream

And everybody laughs

Teacher - Preacher

Haunting distance past
