(Oh) |
|
(Oh) |
|
Were the teachers any good at it? |
|
Were they good at their jobs? |
|
It must be hard, can they handle it |
|
When we become what they said we'd not? |
|
(Oh) |
|
(Oh) |
|
Now, we work and we pay for it |
|
Doing any old chore |
|
It makes money so we stick it through |
|
And day to day, the days go by and by and by and by and well |
|
I just don't want to die like a fool |
|
I'm not lost, I'm somewhat off the way |
|
I'm gonna do what I said I'd do at school |
|
And be the one that says |
|
"Hey, this ain't so hard and it's kind of cool" |
|
(Oh) |
|
(Oh) |
|
When we look at the clock we know |
|
How much longer we have |
|
It's not the hours and the minutes that go |
|
It's everything that we said, and it's gone, are you glad? |
|
Now, we're struggling to pay the bills |
|
With the money we've got |
|
And the world seems to frown on us |
|
And we're learning more than we've ever learnt |
|
And I like it a lot |
|
I just don't want to die like a fool |
|
I'm not lost, I'm somewhat off the way |
|
I'm gonna do what I said I'd do at school |
|
And be the one that says |
|
"Hey, this ain't so hard and it's kind of cool" |
|
(Oh) |
|
(Oh) |
