[Intro]
Ahh, yeah
Ahhhhh, yeah
Ahhhh, ahhhhhhh
Try it together one time, so
Ahhhhhhhh

Oooh, baby

Yeah!
Well, I ain't about to go to school, oh!
Ooo, and I'm sick and tired of golden rules
Oh! They say I'm crazy, from the wrong side of the tracks
I never see them, but they're always on my back
Oh, yeah, baby, how do you say?
So let me tell you about this one time, how you gonna tell it?
Let me put it to music, yes

Well, I'm sick and tired of cleaning room
Oh! And it's the final bell for pushing broom
Oh - Damned if I do, and then I'm damned if I don't
Won't someone tell me what it is they all want?

It makes me blue!
Ooh, I live with fools!
Ooh, it makes me blue!
Ooh, I live with fools!
I just can't take it
Ah, my teachers all gave up on me
No matter what they say, I disagree
And when I need something to soothe my soul
I listen to "too much rock 'n' roll"
Don't want no class reunion
This circus just left town
Why behave in public if you're
Livin' on a playground?

It makes me blue!
Ooh, I live with fools!
Ooh, it makes me blue!
Ooh, I live with fools!

[Guitar solo]
Oh, yeah! Hey!
Woo

(Ooh, it makes me blue) Makes me blue
(Fools) Oh-oh (I live with fools) Live with fools
(Ooh, it makes me blue) Yeah, so blue
(Fools), Oh, oh (I live with fools) Hey

Ah, ha-ha
All right, that's right
Are you goin' my way?
[Scat singing]
