Retention, I can't pay attention any more
Detention, yeah, I can't avoid it any more
Everyone's a professor
And we're all teaching different lessons
And they're taking forever
To say absolutely nothing
Information overload
I can't trust what I am told
Please tell me that this won't
Show up on the test
My grades are sinking fast
Falling behind the class
Maybe finishing last ain't so bad
Life feels like we're back in high school
And I can't tell who lies and who tells the truth
Cliques I'll never be a part of, yeah
Eating lunch with my geeky friends
Just shove me in a locker and run
I've never been good at long division
♪
School spirit, I'm losing my passion every day
Extra credit, I'm running out of excuses I can make
I guess the truth just won't be told
It follows where the money goes
I need to find it on my own
Outside these classroom windows
Information overload
I can't trust what I am told
Please tell me that this won't
Show up on the test
My grades are sinking fast
Falling behind the class
Maybe finishing last ain't so bad
Life feels like we're back in high school
And I can't tell who lies and who tells the truth
Cliques I'll never be a part of, yeah
Eating lunch with my geeky friends
Just shove me in a locker and run
I've never been good at long division
I think I'm losing my mind
I won't graduate on time
You can't dangle this diploma over my head
I don't wanna jump through hoops
To prove I'm in the loop
I think I know when I'm getting played
Thank you anyway
