Lyrics The Smell of Rebellion

This school of late has started reeking

Quiet maggot when I'm speaking

Reeking with a most disturbing scent

Only the finest nostrils smell it

But I know it oh too well

It is the odor of rebellion

It's the bouquet of dissent

And you may bet your britches this head-mistress finds this foul odiferousness wholly olfactorily insulting

And so to stop the stench's spread

I find a session of phys-ed

Sorts the merely rank from the revolting

Come along squits

I'll take it from here Jenny

The smell of rebellion comes out in the sweat

And phys-ed will get you sweating

And it won't be long before I smell the pong of aiding and abetting

Before a weed becomes too big and greedy you really need to nip it in the bud

Before the worm starts to turn you must scrape off the dirt and rip it from the mud

The whiff of insurgence

The stench of intent

The reek of pre-pubescent protest

The pong of defiance

The odor of coup

The waft of anarchy in progress

Once we've exercised these demons they shall be too pooped for scheming

Some double-time discipline should stop the rot from setting in

Discipline, discipline

For children who aren't listening

For fiddlers who are fidgeting and whispering in history

Their chattering and chittering

Their nattering and twittering

Is tempered with a smattering of discipline

We must begin insisting on rigidity and discipline

Persistently resisting this anarchistic mischieving

These minutes you are frittering on pandering and pitying while little ones like this they just want discipline

The simpering and whimpering

The dribbling and the spittling

The Miss I need a tissue is an issue we can fix

There is no mystery to mastering the art of classroom mistressing

It's discipline, discipline

Discipline

The smell of rebellion

The stench of revolt

The reek of pre-pubescent plotting

The whiff of resistance

The pong of dissent

The stink of moral fiber rotting

Imagine a world with no children

Close your eyes and just dream

Imagine

Go on try it

The peace and the quiet

A babbling stream

Now imagine a woods with a cottage and inside that cottage we find

A parrot called Zeke

A carnival freak who can fold paper hats with his mind

And he says

Don't let them steal your horses

Don't let them take them away

If you find your way through they'll be waiting for you

Singing Neigh neigh

Neigh

Ah ha

And there just like I said the stinking maggot rears his head

Have you ever seen anything more repellent

Have you ever smelled anything worse

Than that smell of rebellion

The scent of revolt

The reek of insubordination

A whiff of resistance

The pong of dissent

And I will not stop 'till you are squashed

'Till this rebellion is quashed

'Till glorious sweaty discipline has washed this sickening stench

Away
