Hall & Oates - Adult Education Lyrics

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 (3x)
It's a bad situation
Adult education
