Who needs sleep?

Nerd (and QaF addict) that I am, I hunted down the lyrics to High School Confidential, and compared them to the original. *snerk*


The original, by Rough Trade

She's a cool blonde scheming bitch
She makes my body twitch
Walking down the corridor
You can hear her stilettos click
I want her so much I feel sick
The girl can't help it
She really can't help it now
It's like high school high school confidential
High school high school confidential

Teenage Brandos stalk her in the halls
They tease her with cat calls
She's a combination Anita Ekberg Mamie Van Doren
Dagmar high school confidential, high school
High school confidential

What's the principal doing with her
Who's that guy, is he screwing with her
What's her perfume? Tigress by Faberge
It makes me cream my jeans when she comes my way
High school high school confidential
High school high school confidential

She drives a candy pink Cadillac
If I don't get her soon I'll have a heart attack
When she flashes me a look
I wanna burn my books
Give up high school
High school confidential
High school high school confidential
High school high school confidential
High school high school confidential




The QaF version, by Carole Pope

He's a cool blonde scheming trick
You want him so much you feel sick
The boy can't help it
He really can't help it now

Teenage Brandos stalk him in the halls
They tease him with cat calls
He's a combination Tom Cruise / Zack O'Tool

High school high school confidential
High school high school confidential

What's that man doing with him?
It's that guy and he's screwing with him
Can you feel the sexy sweat?
He makes you cream your jeans so you won't forget

High school high school confidential
High school high school confidential

He drives a loaded jeep with seats in the back
If you don't do him soon you'll have a heart attack
When he flashes you a look
You wanna burn his books
Give up high school

Well well well well
High school high school confidential
High school high school confidential
High school high school confidential
High school high school confidential

This is my favorite song on the soundtrack.

Well, this and "You Think You're A Man"

Carole Pope was the lead singer of Rough Trade, eh?

(and that eh was on purpose, 'cause they were canucks ;) ).

Coolness. The site I found didn't list the individual singers of Rough Trade, only the group name. I just get tickled by the lyrics. ^_~
