In High School 1969
[To be sung in soft voice.]
You hated teachers
& they hated you
(In high school )
You did your time
There was nothing else to do
(In high school)
You couldn’t wait to get away [optional: yeah yeah]
No one could make you wanna stay
In high school
In [*optional: friggin’] high school
In [*optional: that goddamn friggin’] high school
Back in [*optional: friggin’] high school
You sat in class
& dreamed just like before
(In high school)
To save your ass
Or go off to that stinking war
(In high school)
You'd secrets
No one else could guess [optional: yeah yeah]
You thought they’d be
The secrets to success
In high school
In [*optional: friggin’] high school
In [*optional: that goddamn friggin’] high school
Back in [*optional: friggin’] high school
You played your game
As a slinger in the band
(In high school )
You played guitar [optional/spoken: yeah right]
But couldn’t make them understand
(In high school )
[But] Your girlfriends loved it every one [optional: yeah yeah]
You played them all
& thought it so much fun
In high school
In [*optional: friggin’] high school
In [*optional: that goddamn friggin’] high school
Back in [*optional: fuggin’] high school
[optional fadeout: Blow it up! Burn it down! Shut it out!]
[optional/spoken: Now tell them what you really think…]
In high school
In high school
In high school
Back in high school
[optional/spoken: Song by the Late Yours Truly…]
