[TEEN ANGEL]
Your story, sad to tell
A teenage ne'er do well
Most mixed up, non-delinquent on the block
Your future's so unclear now
What's left of your career now?
Can't even get a trade-in on your smock
[ANGELS]
La, lala, la, lala, la, lala, la
La, lala, la, lala
La, lala, la, lala
La, lala, la, lala
La

Beauty school dropout
No graduation day for you
Beauty school dropout
Missed your midterms and flunked shampoo
Well at least you could have taken time
To wash and clean your clothes up
After spending all that dough to have
The doctor fix your nose up!
Baby get moving (Better get movin')
Why keep your feeble hopes alive?
What are you proving? (What are you provin'?)
You've got the dream, but not the drive!
If you go for your diploma, you could join a steno pool (Ahh)
Turn in your teasin' comb and go back to high school (La la la la la)
[ANGELS]
La la la la la

Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)
Hangin' around the corner store
Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)
It's about time you knew the score
Well they couldn't teach you anything (Ooo)
You think you're such a looker (Ooo)
But no customer would go to you unless she was a hooker (Ooo)
Baby don't sweat it (Don't sweat it)
You're not cut out to hold a job
Better forget it (Forget it)
Who wants their hair done by a slob?
Now your bangs are curled, your lashes whirled (Ooo)
But still the world is cruel (Ooo)
Wipe off that angel face and go back to high school
Baby don't blow it
Don't put my good advice to shame
Baby you know it
Even Dear Abby'd say the same
Now I've called the shot
Get off the pot (Ahh)
I really gotta fly
Gotta be going to that, malt shop, in the sky
Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)
Go back to high school
Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)
Go back to high school
Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)
Go back to high school
