Back when I was goin' to school
I never learned a thing
All I did was daydream
Waitin' for the bell to ring
I had a certain teacher
I always tried to impress her
When she stood up in the classroom
I would mentally undress her
Then one day I decided
That I would write a little letter
She said the spellin' was a masterpiece
The punctuation could be better
I understood what she was saying
I got the gist of her sentiment
She said, "I don't mean to be degrading
But here's the way that it should've went"
I love you period
Do you love me question mark?
Please, please exclamation point
I want to hold you in parentheses
I love you period
Do you love me question mark?
Please, please exclamation point
I want to hold you in parentheses
Right on up to high school
People said, I was a writin' fool
All my letters became really great
With punctuation that was never late
But I was havin' trouble meetin' girls
I never knew the things to say
Soon I had 'em all overwhelmed
When they heard me talk this way like this
I love you period
Do you love me question mark?
Please, please exclamation point
I want to hold you in parentheses
I love you period
Do you love me question mark?
Please, please exclamation point
I want to hold you in parentheses
