Frankie Avalon Beauty School Dropout Lyrics

Beauty School Dropout Lyrics

Your story sad to tell,
A teenage ne'er do well,
Most mixed up
non-delinquent on the block.

Your future's so unclear now,
What's
left of your career now?
Can't even get a trade in on your smile.
Beauty
school dropout,
No graduation day for you.
Beauty school
dropout,
Missed your mid-terms and flunked shampoo.
Well at least you
could have taken time,
To wash and clean your clothes up.
After spending
all that dough,
To have the doctor fix your nose up.

Baby get
movin,
(Better get movin)
Why keep your feeble hopes alive?
What are
you provin?
(What are you provin)
You've got the dream but not the
drive.

If you go for your diploma you could join the steno pool.
Turn
in your teasin' comb and go back to high school!

Beauty school
dropout,
(Beauty school dropout)
Hanging around the corner
store.
Beauty school dropout
(Beauty school dropout)
It's about time
you knew the score.

Well they couldn't teach you anything,
You think
you're such a looker.
But no customer will go to you,
Unless she was a
hooker!

Baby don't sweat it.
(Don't sweat it)
You're not cut out
to hold a job.
Better forget it,
(Forget it)
Who wants their hair done
by a slob?

Now your bangs are curled,
Your lashes twirled,
But
still the world is cruel,
Wipe off that angel face and go back to high
school.

Baby don't blow it,
Don't put my good advice to
shame!
Baby you know it,
Even dear Abby'd say the same!

Now I've
called the shot,
Get off the pot, 
I really gotta fly,
Gotta be going
to that malt shop in the sky.

*fades*

(Beauty school dropout)
Go back to high school
Beauty school dropout

(Beauty school dropout)
Go back to high school
