Bad Education (song)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bad Education is the third song on the album Bottoms of Barrels, by Tilly and the Wall. It was released as a bonus 7" with the purchase of Bottoms of Barrels.
Contrary to popular belief, "Bad Education" is not based on the 2004 film, Bad Education about a transvestite. On her MySpace page, Kianna Alarid has stated that, although they knew the movie existed, Derek Presnall wrote the song without having seen the film or knowing what it was about. When they later saw the DVD cover, the band was amazed by the coincidental similarities. They refer to the song as being about a person with a split personality, specifically a boy who dresses up in women's clothes. "Forget the Feeling" and "Patience, Babe" are the two non-album tracks.
