Revolting Children from the RSC's Matilda the Musical, music and lyrics byTim Minchin.

Lyrics:
BRUCE (KIDS)
Never again will she get the best of me
Never again will she take away my freedom
And we won't forget the day we fought
(For the right to be a little bit naughty)
(Never again) will the chokey door slam
(Never again) will I be bullied and
(Never again) will I doubt it when

ALL
My mummy says I'm a miracle
Never again
Never again will we live behind bars
Never again now that we know we are

Revolting children
Living in revolting times
We sing revolting songs
Using revolting rhymes
We'll be revolting children
'Til our revolting's done
And we'll have the Trunchbull bolting
We're revolting
(x2)

TOMMY
We will become a screaming horde

LEVENDER
Take out your hockey stick
And use it as a sword

BRUCE
Never again will we be ignored

HORTENSIA
We'll find out where the chalk is stored

NIGEL
And draw rude pictures on the board

AMANDA
It's not insulting

ALL
We're revolting!

MATILDA, LAVENDER, AMANDA, ERIC, NIGEL
We can S-P-L how we like

HORTENSIA, BRUCE, ALICE, TOMMY, REGINALD
If enough of us are wrong, wrong is right

MATILDA, LAVENDER, AMANDA, ERIC, NIGEL
Everyone! N-O-R-T-WHY?

ALL
Coz we're a little bit naughty

MATILDA, LAVENDER, REGINALD, ERIC, ALICE
You say we oughta stay inside the line

HORTENSIA, BRUCE, TOMMY, AMANDA, NIGEL
But if we disobey at the same time

MATILDA, LAVENDER, REGINALD, ERIC, ALICE
There is nothing that the Trunchbull can do

BRUCE
She can take her hammer and S-H-U...

ALL
You didn't think you could push us too far
But there's no going back now we
R-E-V-O-L-T-I-N
We'll S-I-N-G
U-S-I-N-G
We'll be R-E-V-O-L-T-I-N-G
It is 2-L-8-4-U E-R-E-volting

We are revolting children
Living in revolting times
We sing revolting songs
Using revolting rhymes
We'll be revolting children
'Til our revolting's done
It is 2-L-8-4-U

We are revolting children
Living in revolting times
We sing revolting songs
Using revolting rhymes
We'll be revolting children
'Til our revolting's done
It is 2-L-8-4-U E-R-E-volting!
