[The Cast of Roald Dahl’s Matilda The Musical, Meesha Garbett, Emma Thompson - School Song lyrics]

Oi, new kids! And so you think you're able
To survive this mess by
Being a prince or a princess
You will soon see
There's no escaping tragedy
And even if you put in heaps of effort
You're just wasting energy
Cause your life as you know
It is ancient history

I have suffered in this jail
Have been trapped inside this cage for ages
This living 'ell
But, if I try I can remember
Back before my life had ended
Before my happy days werе over
Before I first hеard the pealing of the bell
Like you, I was curious
So innocent, I asked a thousand questions
But unless you want to suffer
Listen up and I will teach you


A thing or two you listen here, my dear
You'll be punished so severely if you
Step out of line
And if you cry it will be double
You should stay out of trouble
And remember to be extremely careful!

Why?

Why?!

Why? Did you hear what we said?

Just you wait for phys-ed!

What's phys-ed?

Physical education!

The Trunchbull's speciality

Who are you?

We're prefects
We're here to take you to class

So, we're going to start learning?

Oh, you'll start learning all right

Great! I already know the alphabet!

You don't know the alphabet until
We LEARN you the alphabet

And so you think you're able
To survive this mess by
Being a prince or a princess
You will soon see
There's no escaping tragedy
And even if you put in heaps of effort
You're just wasting energy
Cause your life as you know
It is ancient history
I have suffered in this jail
Have been trapped inside this cage for ages
This living 'ell
But, if I try I can remember
Back before my life had ended
Before my happy days were over
Before I first heard the pealing of the bell
Like you, I was curious
So innocent, I asked a thousand questions
But unless you want to suffer
Listen up and I will teach you
A thing or two you listen here, my dear
You'll be punished so severely if you
Step out of line
And if you cry it will be double
You should stay out of trouble
And remember to be extremely careful!

Why?

Why?

Why, didn't you hear what we said?!

I have become aware that some of
You are not yet in class! Correct this
You have five seconds to comply! 5, 4, 3, 2-

A b c d e f g h i j k l m

Why, why, why, why, why, why, why!?

Lavender, Matilda, inside quick!

Just you wait for phys-ed!
