CHORUS: Be cruel to your school 'cause you may never get another Be cruel to your school in the name of rock 'n' roll Be cruel to your school just like a sister or a brother Be cruel to your school in the name of rock 'n' roll Well, 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 stratin' to decay and I'm livin' in my private hell Didn'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, me, me, me REPEAT CHORUS Sing it, Alice I 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 one who's bored to tears Now 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 insay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ane Solo - sax: Clarence Clemons, guitar: Brian Setzer '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, me REPEAT CHORUS (twice) Alright
