Lyrics Beauty School Dropout

Your story's 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

Beauty school dropout
No graduation day for you
Beauty school dropout
Missed your midterms and flunked shampoo
Well at least you could have taken time
To wash and clean your clothes up
After spending all that dough
To have the doctor fix your nose up

Baby get moving
(baby get moving)
Why keep your feeble hopes alive
What are you proving
(what are you proving)
You've got the dream but not the drive
If you go for your diploma
You could join a steno pool
Turn in your teasing comb
And go back to high school

Beauty school dropout
(beauty school dropout)
Hangin' around the corner store
Beauty school dropout
(beauty school dropout)
It's about time you knew the score
Well they couldn't teach you anything
You think you're such a looker
But no customer would go to you
Unless she was a hooker

Baby don't sweat it
(don't sweat it)
You're not cut out to hold the job
You better forget it
(forget it)
Who wants their hair done by a slob
Now your bangs are curled
Your lashes twirled
But still the world is cruel
Wipe off that angel face
And go back to high school

Baby don't blow it
Don't put my good advice to shame
Baby, you know it
Even Dear Abby'd say the same
Now I've called the shot
Get off the pot
I really got to fly
Gotta be going to that
Malt shop in the sky

Beauty school dropout
(beauty school dropout)
Go back to high school

Beauty school dropout
(beauty school dropout)
Go back to high school

Beauty school dropout
(beauty school dropout)
Go back to high school
