Description: |
This is a song I wrote many years ago in the days when corporal punishment was still considered an acceptable part of educating children. It got an extraordinary more...response on YouTube, where a number of people made personal attacks on me, apparently believing that the views expressed by the character in the song are my own views. They seriously thought I was suggesting a child should be punished for coming from a broken home or that teachers should be beaten up for going on strike. I realised later that a "spanking blog" had linked to this song, and that presumably people were finding it for all the wrong reasons!
Lyrics:
The Corporal Punishment Song
"I caught this mischievous lad, sir,
Scribbling on his desk."
"Then hand him over to me, sir,
And I'll give him six of the best.
Six of the best, six of the best,
Give 'em all six of the best.
Give 'em a whack with a great long strap,
Give 'em all six of the best."
"This boy won't do any work, sir;
He's becoming a bit of a pest."
"Then hand him over to me, sir,
And I'll give him six of the best.
Six of the best, six of the best,
Give 'em all six of the best.
Give 'em a lick with a dirty great stick,
Give 'em all six of the best."
"This boy never learnt to read, sir,
And his spelling isn't the best."
"Then hand him over to me, sir,
And I'll give him six of the best.
Six of the best, six of the best,
Give 'em all six of the best.
Give 'em a thump that'll raise a lump,
Give 'em all six of the best."
"This boy comes from a broken home.
Sir, what do you suggest?"
"Hand him over to me, sir,
And I'll give him six of the best.
Six of the best, six of the best,
Give 'em all six of the best.
Flog 'em and welt 'em
And bash 'em and belt 'em,
Give 'em all six of the best."
"The teachers are going on strike, sir,
With some absurd request."
"Then hand 'em over to me, sir,
And I'll give 'em all six of the best.
Six of the best, six of the best,
Give 'em all six of the best.
Put 'em to bed with a broken head,
Give 'em all six of the best." less
