Made my escape just a few days ago

I don't wanna tell you how low you can go

Movin' on up get a job quickly

Somthin hit me I don't know wot it was

I wanna go back this (week)

I wanna go back this (week)

I wanna go back this (minute)

They said I was unruly

Better get a job

I really didn't understand the meaning of the word

I tried to get an understanding with the foreman boss

He simply put me down and said I wasn't

(To be trusted)

So I wanna go back

I wanna go back

I wanna go back

I wanna go back to school

I wanna go back to school

You might think I'm a crazy fool

I wanna go back to school

Man its safer in there

The world outside is so uncool

I need the money right now, I need the right job

The guys at work just needle me, they just can't

get enough

I telephoned my friend, he said "same with me"

So wot are we going to do in this unearthly factory

I don't understand, how I was pushed to the brink

I wanna go back

I wanna go back

I wanna go back

I wanna go back to school

I wanna go back to school

I wanna go back to school

Man it's crazy out here in the 'outer' world

I wanna go back to school

So I'm sitting in the dark

In my bed the other night

Thinking about my teacher

Now wasn't she right

They said youd get a shock

Just like coming out of the womb

The world outside's enormous

There's only so much room

People kick and tear your brain

Life outside's insane

I wanna go back "HERE ME NOW"

I really tried to work so hard

They told me scrub the floor

They kicked me like a toy

Nailed me to the door

I wanna go back to school

I wanna hear it, hear it

Hear the golden rule

I wanna go back to school
