Lyrics

Ev ’ry week’s the same; stuck in school’s so lame.

My par ents say that I’m la zy; get tin’ up at eight a.

m.’s cra zy!

Tired of be in’ told what to do; so un fair, so un cool.

The day’s too long,

and I’m hold ing on

till I hear the bell ring,

’cause that’s the time when we’re gon na, time when we’re gon na break out; let the par ty start.

We’re gon na stay out, gon na break some hearts.

We’re gon na dance till the dance floor falls a part.

Uh oh, all o ver a gain.

We’re gon na wake up ev ’ry one we know.

We’re gon na have some fun, gon na lose con trol.

It feels so good

to let go, oh, oh.

(Go, oh, oh.) Hang in’ out’s just some thing we like to do; my friends and the mess we get in to.

These are the les sons that we choose, not a book full of things we’ll nev er use.

(Go, oh, oh.)
