Adult Education Lyrics

ADULT EDUCATION

 Daryl Hall and John Oates

 

 Afternoon in the homeroom

 They're about to let you go

 And the locker slams

 On the plan you had tonight

 You've been messin 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

 And 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

 Back to school it's a bad situation

 Oh yeah, oh yeah

 But what you want is an adult education

 

 The teacher don't know about how

 To deal with the student body huh, huh

 And the underclassmen are

 Flashing hot and cool huh huh

 All your girlfriends care about

 Watch and wear and talkin about it huh huh

 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

 Back to school it's a bad situation

 Oh yeah, oh yeah

 But what you want is an adult education

 

 They're calling it preparation

 You're waiting for a separation

 You're nothing but another odd number

 Memories that you won't remember

 So you got a little education

 And a lot of dedication

 But you want a little night school

 Maybe some of it'll rub off on you

 The boys are busy in the mirrors

 Trying to imitate their heroes

 You make it with a false surrender

 More memories you won't remember

 The senior with the Junior Miss

 I wonder what the junior wishes

 That she could graduate to adult

 That she could graduate to adult kisses

 

 Adult education

 Adult education

 Adult education

 It's a bad situation

 Adult education
