Back to School Again
Spending my vacation in the summer sun
Gettin' lots of action and a lots of fun
Scorin' like a bandit 'til the bubble burst
Suddenly it got to be September first
Woe, is me, all summer long, I was happy and free
Save my soul, the board of education took away my parole
I gotta go back, back, back to school again
You won't find me 'til the clock strikes three
I'm gonna be there 'til then
I gotta go back, back, back to school again
Whoa, whoa, I gotta go back to school again
Geometry and history is just a pain
Biology and chemistry destroys my brain
Well, don't they know that I deserve a better fate?
I'm really much too young to matriculate
Well, mama please, your child's come down with a fatal disease
Mama said, "Come on you lazy bum now get your butt out of bed
You gotta go back, back, back to school again"
It's bye-bye fun, get your homework done
You better be in by ten
I gotta go back, back, back to school again
Whoa, whoa, I gotta go back to school again
I got my books together and I dragged my feet
Then I saw this angel boppin' down the street
I said, "Hey, pretty baby, hows about a date?"
She said, "I'm going to school and I can't be late"
Well, I can see that look in her eyes was sayin', 'Follow me'
And I was caught, I thought of playing hooky but on second thought
I gotta go back, back, back to school again
You won't find me 'til the clock strikes three
I'm gonna be there 'til then
I gotta go back, back, back to school again
Whoa, whoa, I gotta go back to school again
