We had a most horrid schoolteacher, And us children did all hate her, She’d shout at us for no real reason, And threaten to see us later, She had a dip on a Florida trip, And was swallowed by an alligator, But only crocodile tears were shed, ‘Cos we were all just … gladiator!

Crocodile Tears
We had a most horrid schoolteacher, And us children did all hate her, She’d shout at us for no real reason, And threaten to see us later, She had a dip on a Florida trip, And was swallowed by an alligator, But only crocodile tears were shed, ‘Cos we were all just … gladiator!
A lot of artistic licence used here!
