Biography:
The Spook School were a four piece band from Edinburgh, Scotland. The name is a reference to the Glasgow School. They met whilst attending the University of Edinburgh. Most of the band have previously been involved in live comedy shows, some of which were performed at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
Their music often gets compared to bands off the C86 compilation, such as The Shop Assistants, as well as The Buzzcocks; however the band also lists David Bowie as an influence.

C
I dream of meeting boys in the rain
C
Dreams of a boy in the back of my brain
Am
Oh boy you'll speak when you're spoken to
Am
I've always dreamed of telling you what to do
C
My voice never seems to break through
C
I'm always silent when I'm around you
Am
Scared of boys who only speak when they're spoken to
Am
I've always dreamed of telling you what to do
[Chorus]

I'll throw my heart in your face
C
And you can put me back, back in my place

You know I like it when you tell me what to do

I'll throw my heart in your face

Oh boy you'll speak when you're spoken to
