Birth School School Death
Back in the 80's I thought The Godfather's tune "Birth School Work Death" was dark and funny, but now that I'm 75% of the way through the song, it's more than a little scary, especially because if you're a teacher-- as I am-- then the second and third stages are essentially the same: Birth School School Death (unless you insert summer vacation in there-- Birth School Summer Vacation School Summer Vacation Death-- and then things don't seem as grim).

I always liked the song. Even though most of the lyrics are rather pedestrian, you'll never hear another borrow from these original lines:
I've felt torture, I've felt pain / Just like that film with Michael Caine
I've been abused, I've been confused / And I've kissed Margaret Thatcher's shoes
sorry about ruining the song, but there's this positive: it's going to be a lot of posts before i ruin "when i'm 64."
what film is he talking about?
