Sleepy head, kid sister
lying on the floor
18 years and younger, boy
Well she knows what she’s waiting for
Yuki’s a cool school mistress
She’s an oriental princess
She shows films in the classroom, boy
The put the paper on the windows.

Ah…what can the sisters do
Ah…Girls’ School

Head nurse is Sister Scala
Now she’s a Spanish doll
She runs a full body out call massage parlour
From the teacher’s hail

Ah…what can the sisters do
Ah…Girls’ School

Well now, Roxanne’s he woman trainer
She puts the Kids to bed
She gives them pills in a paper cup
And she knocks them on the head

Ah…what can the sisters do
Ah…Girls’ School
Ah…what can the sisters do
Ah…Girls’ School
She shows films in the classroom, boy
The put the paper on the windows.

Ah…what can the sisters do
Ah…Girls’ School
