Schools Out for the Summer

Schools out for the summer by Alice Cooper 

Well we got no choice


All the girls and boys


Makin all that noise


Cause they found new toys


Well we can't salute ya


Can't find a flag


If that don't suit ya


That's a drag



School's out for summer


School's out forever


School's been blown to pieces



No more pencils


No more books


No more teacher's dirty looks



Well we got no class


And we got no principles


And we got no innocence


We can't even think of a word that rhymes



School's out for summer


School's out forever


School's been blown to pieces



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



School's out forever


School's out for summer


School's out with fever


School's out completely
