You ain’t so good in arithmetic, baby
You don’t know how to count
When it comes to spending money
It’s never the right amount

But baby, you know, two and two is four
Baby, that’ll be the day
But in love, crazy love, you get straight A’s

In history, you don’t do too well
You don’t know how to read
You could confuse Geronimo
With Johnny Appleseed*

And if you don’t know who Thomas Edison is
Well, baby, that’s OK
But in love, crazy love, you get straight A’s

You could fall right off the honour roll
You wouldn’t need a shove
But you graduate with honours
From the school of love, well …

You aren’t doing too well in geography
Baby, you can never read a map
And if you hear that teacher starts talking
It’s a time to take a nap
You thought that England is in Spain
Baby, that’s OK
But in love, crazy love, you get straight A’s
