Matt Jones - Talkin' Bout School (ha ha) Lyrics

Well, I woke up way to early one day
To see somebody walking my way
Said the name was "teacher"
So I shut my eyes, counted to ten
And came across some brand new friends
Said "nice to meet ya"
And just like that, it all went black
Had a million eyes stuck on my back
Homework flying everywhere
I asked somebody if it's ever fair
They said "no, but you'll get used to it in no time. ha ha"
So I fell in my first relationship
Broke in half, turned out...
wasn't meant to be
But it was all my fault for being so young
Took a while to know where I went wrong
I'll get better at it sooner or later
Then someone grabbed a hold of my hand
Said "you need those grades, understand?"
I said, "shush"
I can make my own dreams come true
I don't need any single one of you
Now why did life have to get so rough?
Was primary school not serious enough?
Guess things go that way
But now it's time to wave goodbye
And one more time pull off this tie,
Maybe I'll see you all again someday
So now I'm out after all these years
And all that stuff just disappeared
Worked half my life for a page of numbers
To take orders down at McDonald's
Yippee!! what a time to be alive

Well, I woke up way to early one day
To see somebody walking my way
Said the name was "teacher"
So I shut my eyes, counted to ten
And came across some brand new friends
Said "nice to meet ya"
And just like that, it all went black
Had a million eyes stuck on my back
Homework flying everywhere
I asked somebody if it's ever fair
They said "no, but you'll get used to it in no time. ha ha"
So I fell in my first relationship
Broke in half, turned out...
wasn't meant to be
But it was all my fault for being so young
Took a while to know where I went wrong
I'll get better at it sooner or later
Then someone grabbed a hold of my hand
Said "you need those grades, understand?"
I said, "shush"
I can make my own dreams come true
I don't need any single one of you
Now why did life have to get so rough?
Was primary school not serious enough?
Guess things go that way
But now it's time to wave goodbye
And one more time pull off this tie,
Maybe I'll see you all again someday
So now I'm out after all these years
And all that stuff just disappeared
Worked half my life for a page of numbers
To take orders down at McDonald's
Yippee!! what a time to be alive
