Text: Elvis Costello. Get Happy!!. Secondary Modern.

This must be the place
Second place in the human race
Down in the basement
Now I know what he meant

Secondary modern
Where there won't be a problem
'Til the girls go home

This is the hand
That you never shook
You never gave me
The chance that I took

Secondary modern
Where there won't be a problem
'Til the girls go home

Is it out of the question
Between you and me?
Is it pleasure or business
Or a bag of the three?

Nobody makes me sad like you
Now my whole world goes from blue to blue

Secondary modern
Where there won't be a problem
'Til the girls go home

Secondary modern
Where there won't be a problem
'Til the girls go home
'Til the girls go home
'Til the girls go home
'Til the girls go home
