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


And 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
