My 10 year old son, complains regularly about his head teacher, she is 'enthusiastic' about music, nothing the matter with that you might think.
The problem is it is the type of music, she apparently makes him/them sing 'grease' songs, whilst she dances vigorously and unpleasently, they have to be seem to open their mouths in time to the lyrics of 'greased lightning' or they can 'opt' to go and do some written work in her study.
My son has confessed that he feels obliged to mime to this (he refuses to actually sing it)
I suggested he approach the teachers to explain that not everybody appreciated the same music and whilst SOAD might not go down too well, surely the boys taste/self respect could be accomodated, but apparently not.

She's obviously a monster, and the only way to deal with her type is to leave flaming bags of dog poo on her doorstep and brick her windows.

I can't hear it without thinking:
You'll get chills
All through your body
And you'll lose
All control
Of your bladder
And your sphincter -
"That's your butthole!"
Another case of Family Guy changing reality...

"greased lightning" is another connotation there too...
all in all, a filthy film. Ban it!

Why do schools do this to kids and torture them so? Kudos to your son for refusing to sing along, I'd do likewise.
On a similar note, did anyone ever do any awful dances at school? My dance teacher made my class perform at Parents Evening when we were 12. Imagine the beauty of a dance performance based on the concept of capitalism to the tune of Pink Floyd's "Money"... even worse was that there were two performances each night. During performances they kept us locked ina classroom with a video playing of Dirty fucking Dancing...

I got out of the dance routines by being the narrator.
In a way it was the lead role so I got loads of the credit and the chocolate ;D

I got away with the dancing in front of the school hell, that sounds rough. I did however perform a rap song at the School Concert when I was about 14.
It was called City of Angels and was based on the LA Earthquake of that year. It was touching and emotional, with a thumping synth beat. Word.
