What School?

I like dogs and I like people
Especially the Scottish kind
But Scottish dogs have an in-built advantage
Over Scottish humankind

A wagging tail and a little wet nose
Can find new love or avoid potential foes
But in this small ancient nation
We gather information
In slower ways and worser ways
Some do appraise by using this phrase

"What school did you go to?" sounds like
"Where did you spend your teenage days?"
But "what school did you go to?"
Doesn't mean what it says

Plant and Page wrote "A Stairway To Heaven"
I don't like rock but that's genius
And in that song Percy sings
"Sometimes words have two meanings"
My God, he didn't know how right he was

Now I know he's a big Wolves fan
But does he favour rebel songs
Or marching flute bands?
On the west side of this country
To stop it getting funky
As they extend the hand
They'll say like Kissinger or Talleyrand

"What school did you go to?" doesn't mean
"Where did you spend your teenage days?"
No, "what school did you go to?"
Doesn't mean what it says

Let's hear it for the dogs
Sniffin' (lickin') , lickin' (sniffin')
Let's hear it for the dogs
Sniffin' (lickin') , lickin' (sniffin')
Sniffin' lickin' sniffin' lickin'
Sniffin' lickin' sniffin' lickin'

"What school did you go to?" sounds like
"Where did you spend your teenage days?"
But "what school did you go to?"
Doesn't mean what it says
"What school did you go to?" does not mean
"Where did you spend your teenage days?"
No, "what school did you go to?"
Doesn't mean what it says
