Nostalgic

Oh no, alarm's going off again
Mama yelling we got breakfast ready in the den
Mind scrambled like the eggs in the butter pan
Protein shake and a toast with some cinnamon
Mom and dad, they don't talk much
Brewing coffee while she's packing a sack lunch
Put the bag in my pack and I'm outta room
In the car and I'm late gotta zoom zoom

Ooh
In the AM and I miss the moon
Play the FM wanna keep my cool
Line of cars outside the school
Can I sleep 'til I get home?

Growing up wasn't my style
First grade butterfly waiting on the real world
Showing up single file
Playground wisdom better than a set of pearls
Throwing out all my shoes
That's life inside of a rich school
Can't fake my attitude
In detention gotta run away again

Has anyone seen Alex Beane?
Please report to the principal's office

Ding ding, time to go to class
Got my ABCs and some whacky math
Passing notes on the low sitting in the back
Hide from Greenberg, he's out to kick my ass
Make a plan keep the bully distracted
Ten hours on a paper for that kid
Chat him up and make sure that his back's turned
Click click, say goodbye to your midterm

Ooh
My mind's in a cage of rules
These teachers got no clue
Recess gives me something to do
Can I stay and play some more?

Growing up wasn't my style
First grade butterfly waiting on the real world
Showing up single file
Playground wisdom better than a set of pearls
Throwing out all my shoes
That's life inside of a rich school
Can't fake my attitude
In detention gotta run away again

Growing up wasn't my style
First grade butterfly waiting on the real world
Showing up single file
Playground wisdom better than a set of pearls
Throwing out all my shoes
That's life inside of a rich school
Can't fake my attitude
In detention gotta run away again
