DI think I'm goinAg back to schoolG  
Cause I'm tired of being a fool
And I'm tired of playing it cool
I think I'm going back to school
I never understood the weather man
I never understood the moon
Why don't you pour me out a glass of wine
DWhy don't you pour me oAutE  G  
DIn the dayAs before AmericaG  
In the days before priests
In the days before Rolling Stones
In the days before speech
Everybody hates the President
Everybody loves the Queen
Break the planes and close the planet down
DWhy don't you break wiAth meE  G

DI think I'm goinAg out of styleG  
I think I've known it for a while
I think I've known it with a smile
DI think I'm goiAng homeE
