A Song For Susan lyrics
Song information
Artist: Clifford T. Ward Album: Waves
Lyrics
Susan wants to be a secretary She has all the necessary requirements But since her mom left home, her dad's gone to pieces And she has to stay and look after Her brothers and sisters and all the housework
Oh what a waste of education Oh what a waste of education Oh what a waste of education Oh what a waste of education
She was trying so hard in all her subjects And her school report made it clear That a little more concentration would make All the difference to her work But the subject she needed a little more help in Was one that was not in the curriculum The subject she needed a little more help in Was one that was not on the time-table -
About the art of combining washing and ironing And shopping and cooking and such . . . With homework essays, exam revision, punctuality Prefect duties, choir practice, and Playing for the school netball team
Oh what a waste of education Oh what a waste of education Oh what a waste of education Oh what a waste of education
It's such a big responsibility When you're only sixteen years old And your friends are going out, buying new clothes Going to discos, talking boyfriends Sending for college prospectuses
