I got my fingers dirty at the school of rock
D A
Yeah I got my fingers dirty so I took a walk

I went up to the country park and hung around till after dark

And the girls got home
D
Till the girls got home
D G
Did I tell you ’bout the one I know, she’s on the rag?
D A
She spent the summer day inside her sleeping bag

Yeah she spent the summer day inside until it’s time to go to work

And she works all night

Cause the girl’s all right

The girls have got a house that’s like a caravan

And it’s like your holiday whenever you go round

We always have a laugh and then we all get in the bath

To save on the leccy bill
D
Me and Jo and Phil

I had to leave them in the morning

I left the keys around the way
A
I had to go to work
