Staircase At The University Lyrics

by Morrissey

[Verse 1]
March, April, May
She crammed night and day
I hadn't seen her smile in a while

March, April, May
She crammed night and day
I hadn't seen her smile in a while

[Pre-Chorus]
Staircase at the university
She threw herself down
And her head split three ways

[Chorus 1]
"If you don't get three A's"
Her sweet daddy said
"You're no child of mine
And as far as I'm concerned, you're dead"

"If you don't get three A's"
Her sweet daddy said
"You're no child of mine
And as far as I'm concerned, you're dead"

[Pre-Chorus]
Staircase at the university
She threw herself down
And her head split three ways

[Chorus 2]
"If you don't get three A's"
Her loving boyfriend said
"Your shame is sure to stain
The family name"

"If you don't get three A's"
Her loving boyfriend said
"Your shame is sure to stain
The family name"

[Pre-Chorus]
Staircase at the university
She threw herself down
And her head split three ways

[Outro]
Crammin', jammin', pack-em-in rammin'
Chock-a-block box, power study, polish up
And if it breaks your heart then don't come running to me

Crammin', jammin', pack-em-in rammin'
Chock-a-block box, power study, polish up
And if it breaks your legs then don't come running to me
