Boomtown Rats, The - Mary Of The 4th Form Lyrics
Sittin' in the front row
Mary of the fourth form
Turnin' all the boys on
She's turnin' all their heads around
Hitchin' up her short skirt
Pullin' up her stockings
She's combing out her black hair
Starin' at the teacher
Openin' her lips wide
Shiftin' in her seat, yeah
She slowly moves her hips aside
But in the middle of the night
She wakes her mom to put out the light
Her makeup's on and her jeans are skintight
She walks into the pool hall room
The music's playing, you can see in the gloom
The boys are hanging out around table number five
Well, Johnnie looks all right tonight, she thinks
He gives her a smoke and he buys her a drink
Shoots off a frame and they head off into the night
Mary
Mary of the fourth form
Mary of the fourth form
Mary of the fourth form
Mary of the fourth form
Teacher's losing control
Thankfully, the bell rings
Mary's left all alone
With no one but the teacher
She quickly drops her pencil
And slowly bends to get it
Well, the teacher is a natural man
His hand moves out to touch her
She straightens and looks around, now
She laughs and leaves the room, yeah
Heartbreak for the teacher
And sweet dreams for young Mary
But in the middle of the night
She wakes her dad to put out the light
Her makeup's on and her jeans are skintight
And she's headed to the Pillar Bar
She walks into the pool hall room
The music's playing, you can see in the gloom
The boys are hanging out around table number five
Well, Johnnie looks great tonight, she thinks
He gives her a smoke and he buys her a drink
Shoots off a frame and they head off into the night
Mary of the fourth form
Mary of the fourth form
Mary of the fourth form
Mary of the fourth form
Mary of the fourth form
Mary of the fourth form
Hey, Mary

Boomtown Rats, The Mary Of The 4th Form Comments
Best new wave rock band, as influential as the Beatles or stones, completely overlooked in rock and roll. , The Rats are amazing
when music meant something the brilliant rats
No need for keyboards on this track.
one of my favorite songs, still have the single
Brilliant !!
it's so difficult to find their albums on vinyl and it's equally hard to find fans my age. but I will love boomtown rats till I die and I'll always love Bob geldof and his fluffy hair and GORGEOUS smile
Why NOT covering Locomotive breath From JT directly ?
what? jethro tull blows.. what does that junk have to do with this wonderful music?
Best of the Rats' tracks ....... not that that would be hard as most of their stuff was shite at best.
Very true. This is the only single of theirs that I've always liked.
Too true :)
Loved the Rats back in the day .. . and I still do. Great tune, great beat, real instruments and actual lyrics and there were dozens of great acts around. And what do kids have today? Not much that they'll be coming back to in forty years' time.
I loved the rats, when I was 14 and then I found SLF.....nuff said.
Difficult to believe this ever reached #15 in UK Charts in 1977. Doesn't stand the test of time.
Ah, it does. It's a rock classic.
Are you on crack? this song is brilliant. amazing! fantastic. It represents everything true and pure in the universe
Better then the crap in the charts now.
i'd forgot how good this was
The best Rats track. If only I could understand all the lyrics......!
I'm 50 now. I loved 'em then and I still do now. Geldof is great and the music still holds up now. Viva la Rats.
Reminds me of the time at 13 realising what music was all about my fav band for many years even through the not so great albums but i think that we all remember our first fav band.
Reminds me when I just left school at 16 1977
Love this. They actually showed some talent here..........great song!
I used to think Geldof was an arse, but having just read his autobiography, he's a top bloke.
Now this a Rats track.......one of my all time favs !!
