lyrics

Second row, third from the left, and I sang it like they taught
Every Sunday for eleven years and never once alone
And Mrs Beckett watched my face for anything I thought
And I learned to keep it off my face before I left that home

And they told me that the voice was for the ceiling
And I've been aiming lower ever since and hitting more

Choir girl, choir girl, they trained it and I took it
They gave me all the technique and I ran off with the tools
Choir girl, choir girl, they built it and I shook it
And the loudest thing in my whole life came out of all their rules

Mrs Beckett came to Phoenix in a cardigan, row four
And she cried and I don't know what for, and I don't want to know

Choir girl, choir girl, they trained it and I took it
They gave me all the technique and I ran off with the tools
Choir girl, choir girl, they built it and I shook it
And the loudest thing in my whole life came out of all their rules

(all their rules!)
