The First Day of School Songtext
von Joe Grushecky

Jackie started crying I guess he misses his mom
Never been here before but it don′t seem like fun
Put your crayons away kids there's work to be done
Behave our schedule is full
Welcome to the first day of school

Labour day′s over it's early to bed
Turn off the tv my Daddy said
But how can I sleep with these thoughts in my head
Sometimes it all seemed so cruel
Worried about the first day of school


My stomach is turning my nerves are a wreck
I hope the new teacher's not a pain in my neck
Another whole year is too much to take
Why do they have all those rules
Welcome to the first day of school

Now I got a guitar and I gave up on sports
Rudy got an ID and he buys us all quarts
Cheyrl got suspended her skirt was too short
Grow my hair and try to act cool
Welcome to the first day of school

My stomach is turning my nerves are a wreck
Sitting on the other side of that desk
I hope my students aren′t a pain in my neck
Pay attention class here are my rules
Welcome to the first day of school
