Rasputina - Girls' School



Uploaded by: Ocean92Soul
Video Description:
A beautiful & victorian song from the "pseudo-classical, hard-core, 'positive-goth', cello-rock" band Rasputina. The song is called "Girls' School" and it's from the album "Frustration Plantation"... Enjoy!
Lyrics:
A happy start, a sad, sad ending
for every minute of the story
See as their wills are broke and bending
See the good girls in their glory
A primary academy, we're a secondary seminary teaching
finishing rinse, and dancing tips and scorn
Always concerned with plummeting virginity rates
We lecture young girls on how babies are born
Children! make a chain
Oh, children! make a chain
The staff here is severe, yet so altruistic
It hurts us more than it hurts them
The new girls are tender, the old ones sadistic
The late janitress was a gem
Don't believe what the boys from next door heard
Requirements do include math
(A happy start, a sad, sad ending
for every minute of the story)
We draw straws and put our best foot forward
Down the straight and narrow path
Listen to our pretty song, we are happy as the day is long
Forget the things you thought you knew,
we'll make a very good girl of you
Listen to our pretty song, we are happy as the day is long
Forget the things you thought you knew,
we'll make a very good girl of you
A pupil transferred here from Lavender Lake
She wrote a winning essay on self-denial
Some underage urchins were forced to matriculate,
their records kept here undefiled
A neat retreat slips through their fingers
Which little girl made the plan?
Surely involved were the vespers bell-ringers
Down a ladder, through the gate, then they ran!
Listen to our pretty song, we are happy as the day is long
Forget the things you thought you knew,
we'll make a very good girl of you
Listen to our pretty song, we are happy as the day is long
Forget the things you thought you knew,
we'll make a very good girl of you
And the girls ran out of the schoolyard and up the hill behind.
"I'm scared!" said the littlest one.
"Don't worry." said the leader.
"They could catch us, or they could kill us,
but they can never crush our spirit!"

Can someone help me out? Today I was watching the old classic Australian film "Picnic at Hanging Rock" and in the first few minutes Kirsty Child's character Miss Lumley shouts: "Girls! Girls!" and claps her hands and it sounds exactly like the sample in the start of this song. Is this film where that sample comes from? I thought that would be very cool if so. I didn't realise "Picnic at Hanging Rock" was really known outside of Australia.
It is indeed. And ... ( 2 months ago by zoltai9)
It is indeed. And in my opinion, Australian films are way, way better than ANYTHING hollywood produces. "Picnic at Hanging Rock" is an incredibly haunting film; one of MANY that Australia has proven to the world to be superior story telling, although it's true.
P.S.Rasputina rules!
That's very kind of ... ( 2 months ago by jaseyboy)
That's very kind of you to say. "Picnic at Hanging Rock" is indeed an amazing film. I love how eerie it is, especially because nothing is ever really explained; it's left up to us as the viewer to theorise and fit the pieces together. The way the landscape, including the rock itself, is shown to be so alive & hostile to the people of the time who haven't a hope of understanding it is really well done. I think the film's aesthetic really lends itself to Rasputina's style too.
P.S. Absolutely!
I like that. " ... ( 2 months ago by PyramidHeadRox)
I like that. "Positive-goth" Honestly, isn't that genius? I'm only saying cause most adults that live in my house look at goth in a "negative" way.
Ms. Creager looks ... ( 2 months ago by markhh99)
Ms. Creager looks exactly like the main blond girl from Hanging Rock. Ever since I saw the movie I've been wondering if that's where Melora got the inspiration for an all-female ensemble that wore only white, like the school uniforms. Wish I knew...
I wonder that now ... ( 2 months ago by jaseyboy)
I wonder that now too, though it only came together for me on re-watching the movie last week when I was really struck by the similarities between the look of the film and the band in the earlier years. Interesting to think about!
