the happiest days of our lives

When we grew up and went to school 

There were certain teachers who would 

Hurt the children any way they could 

By pouring their derision 

Upon anything we did 

And exposing every weakness 

However carefully hidden by the kids 

But in the town it was well known 

When they got home at night, their fat and 

Psychopathic wives would thrash them 

Within inches of their lives

This song represent how students suffer at that moment because of the educational system, that treated them as nobody only a thing or an animal. Pink floyd was very famous for dealing with political stuff, they always tried to show how harsh it was leaving or studying in that moment.
