My parents used to say that school was not a joke
And as time was passing by, my grades kept looking like one
I remember every morning, sitting on my bench
Looking out the window, printing faces on my desk
Five days a week, and forty-five weeks a year
We knew what we liked, and we didn't like school
Oh no, oh no
And why in heaven did it have to be so long?
We knew what we liked, and we didn't like school
Oh no, oh no, we didn't like school
We didn't like school
Oh no
We didn't like school
We didn't like school
Oh no
Five days a week, and forty-five weeks a year
We knew what we liked, and we didn't like school
Oh no, oh no, OH NO
And why in heaven did it have to be so long?
We knew what we liked, and we didn't like school
Oh no, oh no, we didn't like school
And now that it's all over, I think about those days
'Cause everything we had we kept enclosed between those walls
On the very last day, my friends certainly recall
We had a funny feeling we were leaving lots of things behind
Five days a week, and forty-five weeks a year
We knew what we liked, and we didn't like school
Oh no, oh no
And why in heaven did it have to be so long
We knew what we liked, and we didn't like school
Oh no, oh no, we didn't like school
We didn't like school
Oh no
We didn't like school
We didn't like school
Oh no
We didn't like school
