"Catholic School Girls Rule" is a single from the 1985 album Freaky Styley by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. The song is loosely based on a girl who attended a local catholic school that singer Anthony Kiedis had a brief fling with. A video for the single has been made, but was often not aired or edited because of a nude scene.
Described by Kiedis as a bleached-blonde girl with fire-engine-red lips he found her to look like a southern version of Marilyn Monroe. Later he found out that she was the fourteen year old daughter of a New Orleans police chief, and was reported missing. After discovering this he has sex with her one last time, before sending her back to New Orleans on a bus. Kiedis neglected to mention her name.
