Spartan High School Musical is a song from the Horrible Histories TV series. It aired in Series 2, Episode 3 on June 2, 2010, & later in the first Savage Songs episode.  

A parody of High School Musical, the Spartan Boys sing about their life at a Spartan High School & how they’re trained up to go & fight & live, where stealing is encouraged & love is forbidden until you’re thirty.

Lyrics[]

Today I’m starting High School where boys are turned to men.
I packed my sword & shield, we don’t use paper & pen.
Everyone’s a jock here, we don’t have Spartan nerds
The weedy kids were left to die as breakfast for the birds.

We’re taught to love a fight
We’re taught not to be meek
And if we’re good they feed us
Three square meals every week.

Let’s go fighting now
Fighting is exciting now
Rocking at the Spartan School

At Spartan kindergarten I’m the boss that’s understood
I smack them if they’re naughty & I thwack them if they’re good.
I’m feeling rather peckish, I’m gonna steal some food-
Caught! I’ll have to punish you ungrateful Spartan brood.

We promise not to steal
We’re not the thieving sort-
Stealing is considered good
What’s wrong is getting caught.

Let’s get beating now
Learn lies & cheating now
Rolling at the Spartan School

We have a bunch of contests to see who is the best,
The leanest, meanest, roughest, toughest Spartan contest.
This one is my favorite game lashings of good fun.
Didn’t feel a thing--I want my mum!

We passed our last exam & it’s Spartan graduation
Straight away we go to work no time for celebration
Ten years active service in the army no diversion
There’s only one job for a Spartan--killing lots of Persians!

Wondering about love?
It’s banned until you’re thirty.
High School doesn’t teach romance
It teaches fighting dirty!

Let’s go fighting now
Fighting is exciting now
Rocking at the Spartan School

Let’s get beating now
Learn lies & cheating now
Rolling at the Spartan School!
