56: 3.9
A student, the best in the class
Answer the question, why friendships don’t last.
Talkin’ about you, in front of your face
To hang with you would be a social disgrace.
A student working during class time
While the others are committing a crime.
Wisely using, their time they are not
Talkin’ bout the new, clothes that they bought.
A student doing homework till three
Not invited to another party
A student, what about that B (Chorus )
A student to the classmates confer
Information copying off your paper.
Always wanting, help with homework
But any other time they treat you like dirt.
Using restrooms, for reasons you should
While everyone is at the mirror lookin’ good.
Getting to class, before the bell
Floating in a sea of hormonal smell.
(Chorus )
A student lives inside of a cloud
Down on earth you see the popular crowd.
Where they hope to be, considered cool
And there you have a typical high school.
Planning for, a future dream
As everyone is trying out for drill team.
Hanging out with, kids that are stoned
Is better than you eatin’, lunch all alone.
( Chorus )
And hey just what about that B anyway?
Now how do you expect to get into Harvard?
They took the car away, that’s another song.
