it’s so crazy how she makes it seem as though she’s talking about a school principal. When she’s actually talking about the principals of the industry and how the artists are the “kids” they’re killing. and how she hates having to suppress herself to follow said rules.

[vokiven]

*SHOOTING AT THE ANGELS WHILE CLAIMING YOU’RE THE GOOD GUY*

[k.h]

Melanie: low key pulls of anything
her hairstyles
her outfits
her aesthetic



me: looks like trash when I try to look put together

[annechovey]

I love this song so much. It’s titled “The Principal” but I also feel like it a word play on “the principle” like morals/values. And I know she wrote this about Trump, but I also see it against career politicians who are in power and refuse to make changes that can help the people.

Principal:Fires Trans Teacher
Melanie Martinez:I’m literally about to end this mans whole life

[idoru]

She’s more successful than the person that won the voice 💖💖

[lemonzest]

ONLINE FIGHTS LMFAO SHE REALLY CALLING HIM OUT FOR HIS TWITTER SCANDALS

[magicsparkles]

This song is VERY underrated.
Edit: I red the replies and yes high school sweethearts, recess are Also very underrated.

[ryliemcintyre]

I love how her songs aren't just songs about love. It's so easy to write a love song (no disrespect to those artists who do), but its so much harder to write a song about a real world problem. her songs are so thought out, and not just emotionless words.

[thxtundeadguyx]

She doesn’t realize how perfect she really is.

[huy]

1:50 that "excuse me, how much are you are earning?" is so

[ihshxee]

omg 1 year, happy birthday the principal

[ilove_soup]

Nobody:

The old guys in the court room watching them dance: 👁👄👁

[heavenbackwards]

I dont know why, but my favorite part is when she's singing "killing kids all day and night, prescription pills and online fights"
Melanie is really good at expressing messages through her music, and K-12 is awesome. Almost all of the songs are my favorites, but wheels on the bus is my absolute favorite. I can't wait for Afterschool to come out, but I mostly hope Melanie is doing ok during Corona.

[Garamisinnocent]

Unpopular opinion- The Principal is the best song on K-12

[sceptre]

Moral of the story: if you're transphobic, a predator or a cheater, you have chosen death.
