Album: Snakes 'N' Ladders (1989)Back to SchoolYou didn¡¯t listen when you went to school
You dressed like a clown and you behaved like a fool
But now your education is about to begin
The difference between love and the mess that you¡¯re in
You figured you¡¯re cool I¡¯ll bend all the rules
I¡¯ll get them going red flags to a bull
It¡¯s not like the movies no duel in the sun
You need the answer to get your love done
Now you¡¯re going back to school
Now you¡¯re going to learn the rules
Now you¡¯re going back, you¡¯re going back
You¡¯re going back to school
You know the business or so you believe
You set all your sights but you aim to deceive
You think you¡¯ll hit the target every time that you fire
You think you know the difference between love and desire
But someone¡¯s waiting to turn you around
She¡¯ll shoot you down and put your feet on the ground
It¡¯s not like dreamin¡¯ you can make mistakes
A lesson learned is not so easy to take
Now you¡¯re going back to school
Now you¡¯re going to learn the rules
Now you¡¯re going back, you¡¯re going back
You¡¯re going back to school
Now you¡¯re going back to school
Now you¡¯re going to learn the rules
Now you¡¯re going back, you¡¯re going back
You¡¯re going back to school
You¡¯re doin¡¯ numbers but you don¡¯t keep the score
They¡¯re scratchin¡¯ the surface but they don¡¯t
Reach the core
You only bought the ticket ¡®cause the price was ¡°all in¡±
You¡¯ll never reach the heart until you,ve broken the skin
You¡¯re busy running but you never relax
Live now pay later including the tax
But now your education is about to begin
Forget about the stories and the places you¡¯ve been
Now you¡¯re going back to school
Now you¡¯re going to learn the rules
Now you¡¯re going back, you¡¯re going back
You¡¯re going back to school
Back to school back to school
