[Verse 1]
Sitting in class is a pain in the neck
How's about me taking a three-year rain check?
Gonna do what I want, don't wanna graduate
Gonna take a break from everything that I hate
[Pre-Chorus]
Hey there, teach, I'm talking to you
You can't tell me what to do!
[Chorus]
School's out for summer
School's out forever
School's blown to pieces
[Post-Chorus]
Head strain, brain drain
School is such a pain
No tears, all cheer, we want outta here
[Verse 2]
Don't care about no popularity crown
The Prom King and Queen are just a couple of clowns
We can read and we can write
What we need to know is where's the party tonight?
[Pre-Chorus]
Hey there, teach, I'm talking to you
You can't tell me what to do!
[Chorus]
School's out for summer
(Wanna vacation from education?)
School's out forever
(Get a qualification in relaxation)
School's blown to pieces
[Bridge]
No more pencils, no more books
No more teacher's dirty looks
Out for summer, out 'till fall
We might not go back at all
[Chorus]
School's out for summer
School's out forever
School's blown to pieces
School's out for summer
