Your story, sad to tell
A teenage ne'er do well
Most mixed up, non-delinquent on the block
Your future's so unclear now
What's left of your career now?
Can't even get a trade-in on your smock
[ANGELS]
La, lalala
Lalala, lalalala
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Ahh ahh
Ooo
[TEEN ANGEL (ANGELS)]
Beauty school dropout (Ooo)
No graduation day for you (Ooo-ahh-oo)
Beauty school dropout (Ooo)
Missed your midterms and flunked shampoo (Ooo-ahh-oo)
Well at least you could have taken time (Ooo)
To wash and clean your clothes up (Ooo)
After spending all that dough to have (Ooo)
The doctor fix your nose up (Ooo-ahh-ooo)
Baby get moving (Ooo-op, doo-wop)
Why keep your feeble hopes alive? (Ah, ah-ah-ah-ah)
What are you proving? (Doo-wop, doo-wop)
You've got the dream, but not the drive (Ah, ah-ah-ah-ah)
If you go for your diploma, you could join a steno pool (Doo-wop, di-doo-wop, di-doo, wa-ooo)
Turn in your teasin' comb and go back to high school (Babababa, babababa)
[ANGELS]
Lalala (Woo-ooo-ooo)
Lalala, lalalala
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la (Woo-ooo-ooo)

Hangin' around the corner store (Ooo)
Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)
It's about time you knew the score (Ooo)
Well they couldn't teach you anything (Ahh)
You think you're such a looker (Ahh)
But no customer would go to you unless she was a hooker (Ahh)
Baby don't sweat it (Ooo-wop, don't sweat it)
You're not cut out to hold a job (Doo-wop, job)
Better forget it (Forget it, forget it)
Who wants their hair done by a slob? (Doo-wop, slob)
Now your bangs are curled, your lashes whirled (Ah-ah-ah-ahhh)
But still the world is cruel (Ooo)
Wipe off that angel face and go back to high school
[ANGELS]
Ahhh
[TEEN ANGEL]
Wooo
[FRENCHY, spoken]
Ah jeez
[TEEN ANGEL (ANGELS)]
Baby you blew it (Baby you blew it)
You put my good advice to shame (Ooo-ahh)
Baby you knew it (Baby you knew it)
Betcha Dear Abby'd say the same (Ooo-ahh)
Yes there's no way to get through to you (Ahh)
No matter who may try
Might as well go back to that malt shop in the sky
[ANGELS]
Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh
Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh
Ahh-ahh

Gotta be going to that malt shop in the sky
