    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    The biggest name that went to my school was Mel Gibson.

    From all reports he got expelled, he would jump out of windows and things, and was a little shit. But of course the school loves him now and in the library there is a signed framed photo of him.

    Plus there were some footballers in the grade below me. One who is just about to crack the big time in his code of choice, and another who has made it big. He plays for qld in Rugby Union and has represented Australia.

    jumbo elliot went to my high school
    And he still gives his love, he just gives it away, The love he receives is the love that is saved, And sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky, A human being that was given to fly

    high school I think the only famous person was jack norsworthy...yeah not that famous. he was the star of MTV's short-lived series dead at 21. He's also the neighbor in the brady bunch movie who says the famous line about a pearl jam concert.

    I went to the same college as people who are famous in certain fields of science, business, etc. I think the most generally famous alumnus is Bryant Gumble.

    Way before my time but Ed Marinaro - Heisman runner up in 1971 and on Hills Street Blues.

    But the high school I work at has Six Pack from I Love New York and Camp Jim from MTV's Made. Although I wouldn't consider either of them "famous".
    Hey, you wouldn't hire a clown to fix a leak in the jon so why do you let these hooligans tear down the biz? YEEAAHHH. I don't care if he is Mr. Notorious BIG, can he croon?

    Same secondary school asWilliam Shakespeare :)
    I went to primary school with the lead singer of The Horrors and was best friends with his brother.

    Oh and John Cale from the Velvet underground, Malcolm McLaren, Damien Hirst and Gary Oldman went to my university

    Nobody for me but my wife went to school with Good Charlotte. She was best friends with Benji and Joel's sister. Apparently they were popular kids in school who played sports. The yearbook photo of them in the baseball uniforms is hilarious.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.
