Be cruel to your school 'cause you may never get another
Be cruel to your school in the name of rock and roll
Be cruel to your school just like a sister or a brother
Be cruel to your school in the name of rock and rollWell I don't think I'll make it through another day
It's eight o'clock and all ain't well
My brain hurts so much it's startin' to decay
And I'm livin' in my private hellDidn't somebody tell me this would be so great
Be the best thing I ever had?
How come they never told me 'bout the word 'Exaggerate'
How'd somethin' so good get so bad?'Cause hey, I gotta know am I slow?
Where do I go from here?
Do ABC's and 123's mean that much to me
That much to me, me, me, me, me, me, meBe cruel to your school 'cause you may never get another
Be cruel to your school in the name of rock and roll
Be cruel to your school just like a sister or a brother
Be cruel to your school in the name of rock and rollSing it AliceI see them walkin' 'round like the livin' dead
Ain't they got nothin' between their ears
How come they don't seem to hear a single word I say?
They ain't the only ones who're bored to tearsNow there must be a better way to educate
'Cause this way ain't workin' like it should
Can't they just invent a pill or frozen concentrate
That makes you smarter and taste, mmm, so good'Cause hey I gotta know what I'll have to show
When I hi-hi-ho it from here
Will I be in pain or will I have a brain?
Or will I go insane? I've gone insane'Cause hey I gotta know what I'll have to show
When I hi-hi-ho it from here
Do ABC's and 123's mean that much to me
That much to me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, meBe cruel to your school 'cause you may never get another
Be cruel to your school in the name of rock and roll
Be cruel to your school just like a sister or a brother
Be cruel to your school in the name of rock and rollBe cruel to your school 'cause you may never get another
Be cruel to your school in the name of rock and roll
Be cruel to your school just like a sister or a brother
Be cruel to your school in the name of rock and rollAll right
