School of Rock Soundtrack Lyrics






School Of Rock
by Jack Black

Baby we was making straight A's,
But we were stuck in a dumb daze.
Don't take much to memorize your lies.
I feel like I've been hypnotisized.
And then that magic man; he come to town.
Whoo wee!
He done spun my head around.
He said, "Recess is in session.
Two and two make five."
And now baby, oh, I'm alive.
Oh yeah!
I'm alive

(Chorus:)
And if you want to be the teacher's pet,
Well baby you just better forget it.
Rock got no reason. Rock got no rhyme.
You better get me to school on time.

Oh you know I was on an honor roll.
Got good grades and got no soul.
Raised my hand before I could speak my mind.
I been biting my tongue too many times.
And then that magic man said to obey.....uh-huh
"Do what magic man do, not what magic man say."
Now can I please have the attention of the class.
Today's assignment... a hem... kick some ass!

(Chorus x 2)

This is my final exam.
Now you all know who I am .
I might not be that perfect son.
But ya'll be rockin' when I'm done.

Your Head, Your Mind, Your Brain...
by Jack Black

Now listen you guys,
You know what normal kids would've instilled to slack off,
But not you guys, because you're not normal.
You're special.
And because i think you have the right attitude,
I think it's time we started our new class project.
A science project' no.
It's called.... rock band.
Is this a school project?
Yes.
And it's a requirement.
And it may sound easy, but nothing could be harder.
It will test your head, and your mind, and your brain too.
Will other schools be competing?
You could say that.

Substitute
by The Who

You think we look pretty good together
You think my shoes are made of leather

But I'm a substitute for another guy
I look pretty tall but my heels are high
The simple things you see are all complicated
I look pretty young, but I'm just back-dated, yeah

Substitute your lies for fact
I can see right through your plastic mac
I look all white, but my dad was black
My fine looking suit is really made out of sack

I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth
The north side of my town faced east, and the east was facing south
And now you dare to look me in the eye
Those crocodile tears are what you cry
It's a genuine problem, you won't try
To work it out at all you just pass it by, pass it by

Substitute me for him
Substitute my coke for gin
Substitute you for my mum
At least I'll get my washing done

Fight
by No Vacancy

In our ring of love
this much is true

Never thought that
I'd be fighting you

But you stole my heart
you cheated and lied

You weren't in my corner
You weren't on my side

Chorus:
The gloves are off
you hit below the belt
Now it's time-out, baby
and they've rung the bell

I'm not a fighter, I'm a lover
But if you run, then run for cover
Fight for your love.....YEAAAAAAAAH

When it's round two, girl
I'm comin' out strong

I get a knockout punch
with this heartfelt song (eaaaaaa!!!!!!)

I know when I count you down from ten,
I'll find you in my loving arms again

(Chorus)

I'm not a fighter, I'm a lover
But if you run, then run for cover
Fight for your love.........YEAAAAAAAAAH

guitar solo

I'm not a fighter, I'm a lover
But if you run, then run for cover
Fight for your love.........YEAAAAAAAAAH

Touch Me
by The Doors

Yeah
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Now touch me, baby
Can't you see that I am not afraid?
What was that promise that you made?
Why won't you tell me what she said?
What was that promise that you made?

Now, I'm gonna love you
'Till the heavens stop the rain
I'm gonna love you
'Till the stars fall from the sky
For you and I

Come on, come on, come on, come on
Now touch me, baby
Can't you see that I am not afraid?
What was that promise that you made?
Why won't you tell me what she said?
What was that promise that you made?

I'm gonna love you
'Till the heaven stop the rain
I'm gonna love you
'Till the stars fall from the sky
For you and I
I'm gonna love you
'Till the heavens stop the rain
I'm gonna love you
'Till the stars fall from the sky
For you and I

I Pledge Allegiance to The Band...
by Jack Black

Well you wanna get rid of me? Why, because I'm old?
You hate teachers? Is that what you're about?
No.
Well teachers like to play too and not only am I gonna play, I'm El Capitano.
And what I say goes, so put your
Hands over your hearts. I pledge allegiance,
I pledge allegiance,
To the band,
To the band,
Of Mr. Shneebly,
Of Mr. Sneebly,
And will not fight him,
And will not fight him,
For creative control,
For creative control,
And will differ to him on all issues related to the musical direction of the band,
*babbling*
Let's Go!

Sunshine Of Your Love
by Cream

(Jack Bruce, Pete Brown & Eric Clapton)

It's gettin' near dawn,
When lights close their tired eyes.
I'll soon be with you my love,
To give you my dawn surprise.
I'll be with you darling soon,
I'll be with you when the stars start falling.

I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love.

I'm with you my love,
The light's shinin' through on you.
Yes, I'm with you my love,
It's the morning and just we two.
I'll stay with you darling now,
I'll stay with you till my seeds are all dried up.

I've been waiting so long
To be where I'm going
In the sunshine of your love.

Immigrant Song
by Led Zeppelin

Ah-ah, ah!
Ah-ah, ah!

We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun where the hot springs flow
Hammer of the Gods
Will drive our ships to new land
To fight the horde and sing and cry
Valhalla, I am coming

On we sweep with threshing oar
Our only goal will be the Western shore

Ah-ah, ah!
Ah-ah, ah!

We come from the land of the ice and snow
From the midnight sun where the hot springs flow
How soft your fields so green
Can whisper tales of gore
Of how we calmed the tides of war
We are your overlords

On we sweep with threshing oar
Our only goal will be the Western shore

So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins
For peace and trust can win the day despite of all your losing

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ahh, ah
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Set You Free
by The Black Keys

You hold on
To love that's gone
Run a mile
To see him smile
But you don't know
He's door to door
Playing you
For the fool

Let him go
Walk out your door
And come to me
I'm gonna set you free

Now you know
There you go
Back to him
He gonna do you in
Tear you down
And run you around
Treat you wrong
And then you're gone

Let him go
To walk out your door
And come to me
I'm gonna set you free

You hold on
To love that is gone
Run a mile
To see him smile
But you don't know
He is door to door
Playing you
For the fool

Let him go
Walk out the door
And come to me
I'm gonna set you free

I'll set you free
I'll set you free
I'll set you free
I'll set you free
I'll set you free

Edge Of Seventeen
by Stevie Nicks

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh ooh ooh
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh

And the days go by
Like a strand in the wind
In the web that is my own
I begin again
Said to my friend, baby
Nothin' else mattered

He was no more than a baby then
Well he seemed broken hearted
Something within him
But the moment that I first laid
Eyes on him all alone
On the edge of seventeen

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Said ooh baby, ooh, said ooh

Well, I went today maybe I will go again
Tomorrow
Yeah, yeah
Well the music there, well it was hauntingly
Familiar
When I see you doing
What I tried to do for me
With the words from a poet
And a voice from a choir
And a melody nothing else mattered

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Said ooh baby, ooh, said ooh

The clouds never expect it
When it rains
But the sea changes colors
But the sea
Does not change
So with the slow, graceful flow
Of age
I went forth with an age old
Desire to please
On the edge of seventeen

Ooh

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh

Well then suddenly
There was no one left standing
In the hall yeah, yeah
In a flood of tears
That no one really ever heard fall at all
Well, I went searchin' for an answer
Up the stairs and down the hall
Not to find an answer
Just to hear the call
Of a nightbird singing
Come away, come away

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh

Well I hear you in the morning
And I hear you
At nightfall
Sometimes to be near you
Is to be unable to feel you
My love
I'm a few years older than you, my love

Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby, ooh, said ooh

Heal Me, I'm Heartsick
by No Vacancy

Heal me, i'm heartsick
I'm hungry and i'm broken
I'm haunted, and weeping
Theblood of heaven flowing like a river tonite, tears i can't fight on my own
I'm a haunted, heaving, i'm hung and barely breathing
The drowning ocean, snuff the sun in motion.
Theres a pill on my tongue, a shot from a gun , the bottles bottom
I'm lonely as a star

(Chorus)
So heal me, i'm heart sick
Hungry, but i can survive on you
Heal my heartsick hungry cries
I'm heartsick

Father, free me. mama , woman, feed me.
Child of fury, lost his way but don't worry.
I won't stop til the dawn,
Though i'm in too long on the run i grow strongad restless as a dog

(Chorus)

*guitar solo*

Heal me
I'm heart sick
I'm hungry and i'm broken
I'm haunted, and weeping
The blood of heaven flowing like a river tonite
Tears i can't fight on my own

Growing On Me
by The Darkness

I can't get rid of you
I don't know what to do
I don't even know who is growing on who
'Cos everywhere I go you're there
Can't get you out of my hair
Can't pretend that I don't care - it's not fair

I'm being punished for all my offences
I wanna touch you but I'm afraid of the consequences
I wanna banish you from which you came
But you're part of me now
And I've only got myself to blame

You're really growing on me
(Or am I growing on you?)
You're really growing on me
(Or am I growing on you?)
Any fool can see

Sleeping in an empty bed
Can't get you off my head
I won't have a life until you're dead
Yes, you heard what I said

I wanna shake you off but you just won't go
And you're all over me but I don't want anyone to know
That you're attached to me, that's how you've grown
Won't you leave me, leave me alone

You're really growing on me
(Or am I growing on you?)
You're really growing on me
(Or am I growing on you?)
Any fool can see

You're really growing on me
(Or am I growing on you?)
You're really growing on me
(Or am I growing on you?)

Ballroom of Mars
by T. Rex

You gonna look fine
Be primed for dancing
You're gonna trip and glide
All on the trembling plane
Your diamond hands
Will be stacked with roses
And wind and cars
And people of the past

I'll call you thing
Just when the moon sings
And place your face in stone
Upon the hill of stars
And gripped in the arms
Of the changeless madman
We'll dance our lives away
In the Ballrooms of Mars

You talk about day
I'm talking 'bout night time
When the monsters call out
The names of men
Bob Dylan knows
And I bet Alan Freed did
There are things in night
That are better not to behold

You dance
With your lizard leather boots on
And pull the strings
That change the faces of men
You diamond browed hag
You're a glitter-gaunt gangster
John Lennon knows your name
And I've seen his

Those Who Can't Do...
by Jack Black

Oh, yeah,
I was this close to getting a chair on the Polish philharmonic,
And I nailed the audi-sh...
But I didn't get it.
Guess who did. Yo-yo Ma's cousin, Little Nepitizz.
But anyway, I just decided to give up on myself and
Become a teacher because those that can't do, teach.
And those that can't teach, teach gym.
*laughing*
Mr. Shneebly...
Hey Zach.
Just wanted to say, that was a really cool lesson.
Well, thanks dude. I'll see you back in class.

My Brain Is Hanging Upside Down
by Ramones

You've got to pick up the pieces
C'mon, sort your trash
You better pull yourself back together
Maybe you've got too much cash
Better call, call the law
When you gonna turn yourself in? Yeah
You're a politician
Don't become one of Hitler's children

Bonzo goes to Bitburg then goes out for a cup of tea
As I watched it on TV somehow it really bothered me
Drank in all the bars in town for an extended foreign policy
Pick up the pieces

My brain is hanging upside down
I need something to slow me down

Shouldn't wish you happiness, wish her the very best
Fifty thousand dollar dress
Shaking hands with your highness
See through you like cellophane
You watch the world complain, but you do it anyway
Who am I, am I to say

Bonzo goes to Bitburg then goes out for a cup of tea
As I watched it on TV somehow it really bothered me
Drank in all the bars in town for an extended foreign policy
Pick up the pieces

My brain is hanging upside down
I need something to slow me down

If there's one thing that makes me sick
It's when someone tries to hide behind politics
I wish that time could go by fast
Somehow they manage to make it last

My brain is hanging upside down
I need something to slow me down

Its A Long Way To The Top

(If You Wanna Rock'n'Roll)

Ridin' down the highway
Goin' to a show
Stop in on the byway
Playin' rock 'n' roll
Gettin' robbed
Gettin' stoned
Gettin' beat up
Broken boned
Gettin' had
Gettin' took
I tell you people it's harder than it looks
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
If you think it's easy doin' one night stands
Try playin' in a rock roll band
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll

Hotel motel
Make you wanna cry
Lady do the hard sell
Know the reason why
Gettin' old
Gettin' grey
Gettin' ripped off
Under-paid
Gettin' had
Gettin took
I'll tell you people
It's harder than it looks cause

It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
If you wanna be a star of stage and screen
Long way to the top if u wanna rock 'n' roll

It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll

Well it's a long way
