The Secret of the Staffroomby Sulan Dun of FunBasedLearning.comCurious kids gather around I've got secrets most profound About what teachers do when you're not around The secrets of the staffroom are herein found Oh what do teachers do When they're not in front of you Do they play with macaroni and glue What do they do in the staffroom At the end of a long long day When you all run outside to play The caffeine in our coffee has worn away And we retreat to the staffroom Oh what do teachers do When they're not in front of you Do they fart and say phew What do they do in the staffroom Inside the staffroom's sacred door Tenured guy on the couch begins to snore We laugh become immature grade eights once more That's the secret of the staffroom Oh what do teachers do When they're not in front of you Do they gossip 'till they turn blue What do they do in the staffroom We have to be serious all day long Let classroom discipline come on strong Crack a joke? That's strike number two Keep quiet or I'll call home for you Oh why do they never let us in Is it some malicious whim Why do they shut the door in my face Why's the staffroom such a mysterious place But deep down inside we're not that strict Down in our soul we feel the conflict So on professional days we let loose Giggle and act like a silly goose Oh what do teachers do When they're not in front of you Tear our their hair and cry boo hoo What do they do in the staffroom Oh Pro D days we still learn a lot About pedagogy and engage in thought But there's no reason we can't be Goofballs when students can't see What happens in the staffroom Do they horde gold doubloons Do they tend exotic flower blooms What happens in the staffroom So when teachers seem unamused And their strictness leaves you feeling confused Remember some of them were once like you Cracking jokes and spilling glue And perhaps when you are all grown up You may feel the need to refill your coffee cup To enter the staffroom and close the door To feel like your old self once more And that's the real secret of the staffroom |
