Principal's Office

歌詞

Now normally if I can help it I don't spend a lot of time in the principal's office What!? Nine o'clock Now as I get to school, I hear the late bell ringing Running through the hall, I hear the glee club singing Get to the office, I can hardly speak 'Cause it's the third late pass that I got this week So to my first class I run and don't walk All I hear is my sneakers and the scratching of chalk And when I get to the room, I hear the teacher say, "Mr. Young, I'm happy that you could join us today" I try to sit down so I can take some notes But I can't read what the kid next to me wrote And if that wasn't enough to make my morning complete As I try to get up I find there's gum on my seat And with the seat stuck to me, I raise my hand and say, "Excuse me, but can I go to the bathroom, ma'am?" The teacher got upset and she screamed out "No" It's off to the principal's office you go Twelve o'clock comes with mass hysteria Everybody rushes down to the cafeteria Picked up my tray to have Thursday's lunch And when I tried the applesauce, I heard it crunch I'm running up the stairs with a front tooth broken The nurse just laughed and says, "you must be jokin'" I looked up at her with a smile on my face No joke 'cause my front tooth is out of place So I walk through school with ice on my lip A nurse's late pass like a gun on my hip My books are real heavy, I walk and I'm dragging it No school lunch next week, I'm brown-bagging it Forget class, I'ma shoot some ball With a late pass I've got no trouble at all But then the nurse walks up and says, "Whaddya know? It's off to the principal's office you go" Recess Passing notes is my favorite pastime I can't wait to find a girl to pass mine to To express my feelings Give me a week, me and the girl will be dealin Now one young lady was looking at me I said, "Hi, my name is Marvin, known as Young MC" But then the bell rang and the teacher came in And that's when the game of passing notes will begin I wrote the first note, told her she was fine And I hope that the two of us could spend some time She wrote me back and told me, "You're fine too, I'd love to go on a date and spend some time with you" So then I sat there reeling and looking at the ceiling Words can't express the way that I was feeling Then I thought to myself, The sure way to get her is to write another note, oh yes, a love letter When I finished the note it was ready to pass The teacher took it and read it right in front of the class She read it word by word and line by line And everybody who was laughing was a friend of mine Even my girl was laughing, it was too late No need to write another note, 'cause there would be no date The teacher looked at me and I said, "I know, it's off to the principal's office I go" Yo, you think this bad? Wait 'til I get my report card
