Biografía:
The Spook School were a four piece band from Edinburgh, Scotland. The name is a reference to the Glasgow School. They met whilst attending the University of Edinburgh. Most of the band have previously been involved in live comedy shows, some of which were performed at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
Their music often gets compared to bands off the C86 compilation, such as The Shop Assistants, as well as The Buzzcocks; however the band also lists David Bowie as an influence.

Left the school gates talking to myself
D A

F#m
Just wanna be that girl

But now I've gone home, to an empty house where
E F#m

And I just need someone who knew this voice when
E F#m
I was this person at thirteen

Imagining your face is somewhere else
F#m
That sounds just like me
[Chorus]
