School Is Still In Session

เนื้อเพลง

[Verse 1] You left your worksheet folded in your coat The bell has rung; the hallway holds its note A ruler taps against the classroom door You know the answer—still, you ask for more [Pre-Chorus] Count the squares and check the sum Hear those careful footsteps come [Chorus] One page, two page, keep your pencil straight Every little answer has to match the date Round the corner, hurry down the hall School is still in session when the last bells call [Verse 2] The chalk dust settles softly on your sleeve The clock says there is nowhere else to leave A paper pass is trembling in your hand The rules are written where you’ll understand [Pre-Chorus] Count the squares and check the sum Hear those careful footsteps come [Chorus] One page, two page, keep your pencil straight Every little answer has to match the date Round the corner, hurry down the hall School is still in session when the last bells call [Bridge] The lights click off above the empty desk You find one question hiding in the rest Take a breath, erase the mark you made The morning comes, but class is not dismissed today [Final Chorus] One page, two page, keep your pencil straight Every little answer has to match the date Round the corner, hurry down the hall School is still in session when the last bells call School is still in session—hear the last bell call
