Afternoon in the homeroom They're about to let you go And the locker slams On the plan you had tonight
You've been messin' around with a boyfriend Maybe better left alone There's a wise guy that you know Could put you right
In the lot the boy that's idling by Doesn't rev your heart 'Cause it's only lonely spots He shares with you
And the long halls and the gray walls Are gonna split apart Believe it or not There's life after high school
And that's why the student body Got a bad reputation, oh yeah, oh yeah What they need is adult education Back to school it's a bad situation, oh yeah, oh yeah What you want is an adult education, oh yeah
Teacher don't know about how To deal with the student body And the underclassmen are Flashing hot and cool
All your girlfriends care about The watch you wear and talkin' about it Believe it or not There's life after high school
That's why the student body Got a bad reputation oh yeah, oh yeah What they need is adult education Go back to school it's a bad situation, oh yeah, oh yeah But what you want is an adult education, oh yeah
They're calling it a preparation You're waiting for a separation You're nothing but another odd number Memories that you won't remember
So you got a little education And a lot of dedication But you want a little night school Maybe some of it'll rub off on you
The boys are busy in the mirrors Trying to imitate their heroes You make it with a false surrender More memories you won't remember
The senior with the junior Miss I wonder what the junior wishes That she could graduate to adult That she could graduate to adult kisses
Adult education Adult education Adult education It's a bad situation Adult education
Educate, educate, education The high border whose school's gettin' out other The low border high school's are what you wear Educate, educate, education
