Adult Education
Afternoon in the homeroom
They're about to let you go
And the locker slam on the plan
You had tonight
You've been messing around with a boyfriend
Maybe better left alone
There's a wise guy that you know
Could put you right
In the lot, the boy that's idling by
Doesn't rev your heart
'Cause it's only lonely spots
He shares with you, oh
And the long halls and the gray walls
Are gonna split apart
Believe it or not, there's life
After high school
And that's why the student body got a bad reputation
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
What they need is adult education
You're back to school, it's a bad situation
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
But what you want is an adult education
Oh, yeah
The teacher don't know about how to deal
With the student body (huh, huh)
And the underclassmen are flashing
Hot and cool, oh (huh, huh)
All your girlfriends care about what you wear
And talking about it (huh, huh)
Believe it or not, there's life
After high school (huh, huh)
That's why the student body got a bad reputation
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
What they need is adult education
You go back to school, it's a bad situation
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
But what you want is an adult education
Oh, yeah, oh
They're calling it a preparation (huh, huh)
You're waiting for a separation
You're nothing but another odd number (huh, huh)
Memories that you won't remember
So, you got a little education (huh, huh)
And a lot of dedication
But you want a little night school (huh, huh)
Maybe some of it'll rub off on ya
The boys are busy in the mirrors (huh, huh)
Trying to imitate their heroes
You make it with a false surrender (huh, huh)
More memories you won't remember
The senior with the junior miss (huh, huh)
I wonder what the junior wishes
That she could graduate to adult (huh, huh)
That she could graduate to adult kisses
Adult education
Adult education
Adult education
It's a bad situation
Adult education
Adult, adult
Adult, adult education
Adult education
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
Adult, adult
Adult, adult
Adult, adult
Adult, adult
Adult (adult), adult

Adult educa-, edu-, no-no-no
Adult (adult), adult

Adult (adult), adult educa-educa-education
The high point of low school is getting out of there
The low point of high school is what you wear, oh
They're about to let you go
And the locker slam on the plan
You had tonight
You've been messing around with a boyfriend
Maybe better left alone
There's a wise guy that you know
Could put you right
In the lot, the boy that's idling by
Doesn't rev your heart
'Cause it's only lonely spots

And the long halls and the gray walls
