Little boy, in your room reading books Little boy, in the classroom drawing pictures In the margins Of your math homework In the margins Of your English papers And I swear everything will be alright, it’ll be alright
Hey there kid, how’s it going in class Are you workin hard? What’s your grade point average? Are you measuring up To your full potential Are you measuring up To be who you’d really like to be And I swear everything will be alright, it’ll be alright
You are just a hole in my shoe You are just a rock in my sock So why don’t I just try to grow up? So why don’t I just give it a fucking try?
