Fall is here, hear the yell
back to school, ring the bell
brand new shoes, walking blues
climb the fence, books and pens
I can tell that we are gonna be friends
I can tell that we are gonna be friends
Walk with me, Suzy Lee
through the park and by the tree
we will rest upon the ground
and look at all the bugs we found
safely walk to school without a sound
safely walk to school without a sound
Here we are, no one else
we walked to school all by ourselves
there's dirt on our uniforms
from chasing all the ants and worms
we clean up and now it's time to learn
we clean up and now it's time to learn
Numbers, letters, learn to spell
nouns, and books, and show and tell
playtime we will throw the ball
back to class, through the hall
teacher marks our height against the wall
teacher marks our height against the wall
We don't notice any time pass
we don't notice anything
we sit side by side in every class
teacher thinks that I sound funny
but she likes the way you sing
Tonight I'll dream while I'm in bed
when silly thoughts go through my head
about the bugs and alphabet
and when I wake tomorrow I'll bet
that you and I will walk together again
I can tell that we are gonna be friends
Yes I can tell that we are gonna be friends.
Here we are again! Back to school!!! We are getting there, we are almost there! Let us help you to come back to school happier than ever!!!!
It’s that time of year again, where thousands of kids across the country are saying goodbye to summer freedom and getting back to the daily grind of going to class.
For some, September is an exciting time – meeting new friends, new teachers. For others, it’s a dreadful time – homework, detention, cafeteria food or climbing the rope in gym class.
Whether you are beginning high school or off to experience Start Week for the first time, the English Department at Sagasta High has put together a list of songs that will either get you pumped for school or wishing you had another month of summer vacation.
Feel free to add your favourite back-to-school song in the comment section at the bottom of this post.
To start, let´s listen to a classic, Pink Floyd!
"Another Brick in the Wall" is the title of three songs set to variations of the same basic theme, on Pink Floyd's 1979 rock opera, The Wall, subtitled Part 1 (working title "Reminiscing"), Part 2 (working title "Education"), and Part 3(working title "Drugs"). All parts were written by Pink Floyd's bassist, Roger Waters. Part II is a protest song against rigid schooling in general and boarding schools in the UK in particular.[1] It was also released as a single and provided the band's only number-one hit in the United Kingdom, the United States, West Germany and many other countries.
