All the times I spent suffering in school
Y'know, thinking I was so super cool
And baby, all the teachers gave me so much grief
I wanna blow 'em up just to get some relief
Sister, sister, they call me a parasite
Sister, sister, they wanna bury me alive
All day, all week, all term long
They'd dump on me, hoping I'd be gone
Time made me realize, why should I be victimized?
So I took control and decided to teach
I wanna teach high school, high school, yeah
Listen, I tell the little buggers what to wear
You know, I show 'em how to set and dye their hair
And baby, there'll be no costumes at our swimming pool
There'll be no ugly girls at my high school
Sister, sister, they call me a parasite
Sister, sister, they wanna bury me alive
All day, all week, all term long
They'd dump on me, hoping I'd be gone
Girls who are very bright must stay in class all night
And practice their Biology
I love to teach high school, high school
I need to teach high school, high school, yeah
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
Time made me realize, that I could brutalize
And get revenge with impunity
If I could teach high school
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, how I love anatomy
2 plus 2 and 3 plus 3, students have a ball with me
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, how I love anatomy
2 plus 2 and 3 plus 3, students have a ball with me
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, how I love anatomy
2 plus 2 and 3 plus 3, students have a ball with me
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, how I love anatomy
2 plus 2 and 3 plus 3, students have a ball with me
don't bother going to class,
cuz nobody cares if you cut.
and its not smart to experiment,
with ben gay on your nuts.
if you ask her out and she says maybe,
what she really means is no way.
and if you try jerking off behind the backstop,
the team will be playing that day. (oh God)
these are the things,
i wish i knew,
there are the things i wish i knew,
in highschool.
yeah these are the things,
i wish i knew in highschool.
don't call the head jock a fag,
even if it's true.
and don't hold our for that one special girl,
cuz she'll never have sex with you. (no way)
these are the things,
i wish i knew,
there are the things i wish i knew,
in highschool.
yeah these are the things,
i wish i knew in highschool.

i wish i knew,
there are the things i wish i knew,
in highschool.
yeah these are the things,
It's high school (high school), could be (could be) a mini me of the rest of society,
There's always (always) a prom queen (prom queen), there'll always be, always be sororities,
Sadly (sadly) some will be (some will be) eternally keeping score for popularity,
And just cause (just cause) they all do (they all do) doesn't mean we have to act like we're in high school,
Doesn't mean we have to act like we're in high school
Hight school is like a big competition
Beauty contests, prom court is the mission
There can only be one queen, one king
Everyone voting, everyone competing
But these are the rules, the way of high school
If someone puts you down, that's so high school
Someone talks behind your back, that's so high school,
Thinking you have to get them back, that's also high school
I know I'll be graduating early
High school is like the state of the nation
Some people never change after graduation,
Believing any light you shine makes their's lesser,
They have to prove to everyone that thier's is better
These are the rules, the ways of high school
If someone puts you down, that's so high school,
Believing they're too cool for you, that's so high school
If you belive it too, that's also high school,
I know I'll be graduating early
We've all got bad yearbook photos
Which we've forgot to let go
And just like acne our insecurity
Should be something we left with the jv
So here's to letting go of yearbook photos
Things we kept that hold us down so,
That was yesterday, there's always tomorrow,
We are tomorrow, we are tomorrow,
Come on
The kids want a little action
The kids want a little fun
The kids all have to get their kicks
Before the evening's done
'Cause they're goin' to
(High school)
Rah, rah, rah
(High school)
Sis, boom, bah
(High school)
Hey, hey, hey
You better let them have their way
They only wanna shake it up, baby
Dance to the rockin' bands
They only want a little excitement
They like to get a little outta hand
'Cause they're goin' to
(High school)
Rah, rah, rah
(High school)
Sis, boom, bah
(High school)
Hey, hey, hey
You better let them have their way
The kids know what the deal is
They're getting farther out everyday
We're gonna be takin' over
You better get out of the way
'Cause they're goin' to
(High school)
Rah, rah, rah
(High school)
Sis, boom, bah
(High school)
Hey, hey, hey
You better get out of the way
(High school)
Rah, rah, rah
(High school)
Sis, boom, bah
(High school)
Hey, hey, hey
You better get out of the way
(High school)
Rah, rah, rah
(High school)
Cha, cha, cha
(High school)
Hey, hey, hey
You better get out of the way
(High school)
Rah, rah, rah
(High school)
Cha, cha, cha
(High school)
Hey, hey, hey
You better get out of the way
(High school)
Rah, rah, rah
(High school)
Sis, boom, bah
(High school)
Hey, hey, hey
Make up, gossip, and
expensive clothes
I know you - you were
one of those
Who talked shit, made
lives miserable posing
to be a friend
One day it'll come
back to you and get
you in the end
It's been a long time
go back to high school
I didn't like you then
and I won't start to
I've got better things
to do than sit here
and ignore you
You're just the same
as before
Self serving ego is
what you are
Have you found it
didn't get you
very far
After all this time it
seems like nothing's changed
And you're wondering
why you're running
out of friends
Make up, gossip, and
expensive clothes
I know you - you were
one of those
Who talked shit, made
lives miserable posing
to be a friend
One day it'll come
back to you and get
you in the end
It's been a long time
go back to high school
I didn't like you then
and I won't start to
I've got better things
to do than sit here
and ignore you
You're just the same
as before
Self serving ego is
what you are
Have you found it
didn't get you
very far
After all this time it
seems like nothing's changed
And you're wondering
why you're running
Bubble gum and house parties
When you stole your parents rum
And tried to screw everything that could breathe
Back in high school we didn't have a whole lot to do
We watched the world go by on the television screen
Said it's the 90's kids that's way out this is way in
Go beat each other up on the dance floor
Told us drugs were no good
But then we smoked 'em and liked 'em
So much that we smoked a little more
We liked 'em so much, we smoked a little more
Did I call your name?
Did you hear me singin' that song that I wrote for you?
You're so the same but your so different
I didn't recognize you
It's kinda hard with all that sexual confusion
Sometimes you don't know if you're gay or straight
But what's the difference, it's a wonderful illusion
Most times you won't make it past second base
I'm in a band, we kinda suck but we don't now it yet
And I don't care anyway
'Cuz soon, I'm gonna sell these drums, pay my rent
Support my kid and tell him all about way back in daddy's day
I'll tell him all about way back in daddy's day
Did I call your name?
Did you hear me singin' that song that I wrote for you?
You're so the same but your so different
I didn't recognize you
Some years later by a soda coolerator
In a corner store back in my home town
This stranger smiles at me, said
"Remember the class of '93?"
And for some reason it makes him look real proud
After all the good times he said we had
He looks at me, scratches his head
And asked me where the hell I ever went
And the funny thing is that I never even knew him
But he coulda been any one of my high school friends
Did I call your name?
Did you hear me singin' that song that I wrote for you?
Your so the same but your so different
I didn't recognize you
Did I call you name?
Singin' that song that I wrote for you
Singin' that song I wrote for you

Did you hear that mikey kissed a girl
Could it be your girlfriend or some other stupid hoe
Did you hear that Timmy shaved his hair
How much do you bet Janes not wearing underwear
Her IQ is smaller that her skirt
She pretends she wants it but she is just a flirt
Joey slept with Susan and now they're going out
Get ready cause
This is high school
Passing notes about what happened Saturday night
Is it possible that there could be a fight
Meet at the oak tree approximately 3pm
I will beat your ass cause now you're in high school
Now you're in high school
Oh how we love these high school days
Don't want to leave wish we could stay
I'll really miss those cheerleaders
They are the highlight of my year
Did you hear about how Mr. Halls
Turns his back to the class so he can scratch his balls
Susans dumping joey she says he sucks in bed
But not as good as she does
Back in high school my imagination ran wild,
Of all the things I’d do to you.
But my love had a strangle hold on me,
And she cursed your name a thousand times,
But I’ve got you now.
And you helped me out
of this hole I’ve been stuck in for years now,
And now there ain't shit that I gotta fix for once.
Now stay with me cause I need you more than you will ever know,
And then I’ll scream at the top of my lungs I’ll love you forever.
Theres not a single thing in the world that would keep me from you,
I have waited so long to finally kiss your lips,
And I wont give you up now.
And our love will grow and eclipse all the others below,
Cause there ain't shit that I gotta fix no more.
Now stay with me cause I need you more than you will ever know,
And then I’ll scream at the top of my lungs I’ll love you forever
Theres not a place or time that I can go without thinking
of how beautiful you are to me,
All alone you cry
in the darkness
in despair.
When the city lights
Wake you up,
you won't be there.
No point telling lies
I know what you're gonna say
when look at me
when you simple walk away.
Ref.
Safely far away,
I remember every word you said
and every single day
in our high school.
Adolescent dreaming.
Drag race heroes in the night.
Adolescent screaming.
Feeling bad, then feeling right.
No point telling lies
I know what you're gonna say
when look at me
Well from the waist down
You don't turn around
Your body takes turns like the words like the words
That are falling from my mouth
My jaw dropped down
My mind had start spinning start spinning all over again
I let you go
Go do whatever ever you like
I hold you close
But your heart says no
Well this feels like high school
Where nothing's new
Where every other boy tries talking to you
I guess graduating changes nothing at all
Well from the neck up
There's not much to say
I know I could do better could do better anyway
But when I'm waking up
Here next to you
I'll be thinking to myself what the hell what the hell did I do
I let you go
Go do whatever ever you like
I hold you close
But your heart says no
Well this feels like high school
Where nothing's new
Where every other boy tries talking to you
I guess graduating changes nothing at all
So high school all over again
Girls trick boys into thinking they like them
I guess graduating changes nothing at all
Well I got over you at last
Well baby I get the last laugh
Where you goin' where you goin'
No one cares to know
Well it feels like high school
But nothing's new
Every other boy tries talking to you
Guess graduating changes nothing at all
Well it feels like high school
All over again
So girls trick boys into thinking they like them
I guess graduating changes nothing at all
Nothing at all
This feels like high school
Where nothing's new
Nothing at all
