No more pencils no more books
No more teacher's dirty looks
Out for summer
Out till fall
We might not come back at all
School's out forever
School's out for summer
School's out with fever
School's out completely

Did he write a song about the NHS as well?

Wow!

I wanna love you but I better not touch
I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison

  • 'Poison': an obvious foretelling of the dangers of intimate physical contact during a pandemic. Alice was psychic! Grin

Ah yes I think he wrote one called "listen to me, order more PPE"
And "Don't be a rascal, up in Barnard Castle"

I always thought that Poison was about AIDS .

Inspired by LOTS of drugs!

I thought this was going to be about 'Elected' -

I'm your top prime cut of meat, I'm your choice,
I wanna be elected,
I'm your yankee doodle dandy in a gold Rolls Royce,
I wanna be elected,
Kids want a savior, don't need a fake,
I wanna be elected,
We're all gonna rock to the rules that I make,
I wanna be elected, elected, elected.

As were The Wurzels,

I drove my tractor through your haystack last night
(Ooh ar ooh ar)
I threw me pitch fork at your dog to keep quiet
(Ooh ar ooh ar)
Now somethin's tellin' me, that you'm avoidin' me
(Ooh ar ooh ar)
Come on now, darlin', you got somethin' I need

As an aside - Poison is one of the best songs ever written. I’d argue that to the death.

The Poison video with Alice stomping round in leather trousers is great. Gave my heart many a flutter back in the day.

Love Alice and his version of ‘Only women Bleed’ is superb.
