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
