Lyrics:

I'm Playin' Hooky, I'm Playin' Hooky
i Can't Walk Cool When I Got Books Underneath My Arm
i'm Playin' Hooky, I'm Playin' Hooky
and I'm Afraid I Will Be Failing To Be Hearing The Alarm

i Refuse To Go To School, Think I'll Play A Little Pool
and I Will Pass On The Curriculum Today
i Apologize To Educational Supplies
statistics Just Keep Getting In My Way
how Will They Teach Me How To Learn I Don't Want To Be No Attorney
or Receive A Credential Just Like Raymond

i'm Playin' Hooky, I'm Playin' Hooky
i Can't Walk Cool When I Got Books Underneath My Arm
playin' Hooky, I'm Playin' Hooky
and I'm Afraid I Would Be Failing To Be Hearing The Alarm

maximum Security Is Some Peculiarity
my Educationality Has Brought Me To A Conclusion
institutionality That Tries To Blow The Malady
can Never Seem To Go To The Release
so Can You Blame Me If I'm Tempted
and The Chug Down Is Pre-Empted

playin' Hooky, I'm Playin' Hooky
i Can't Walk Cool When I Got Books Underneath My Arm
i'm Playin' Hooky, I'm Playin' Hooky
and I'm Afraid I Would Be Failing To Be Hearing The Alarm

counselors Said I'm Maladjusted And I Never Can Be Trusted
irreconcilable Differences Cause Problems With The Faculty
conflicting Interests In The Area
but I Should Intend To Be Considering Vocationally
i Must Be Dealt With Very Gently And I Might Say Incidentally
playin' Hooky, I'm Playin' Hooky
can't Walk Cool When I Got Books Underneath My Arm
i'm Playin' Hooky, I'm Playin' Hooky
and I'm Afraid I Would Be Failing To Be Hearing The Alarm

about This [] Called Detention, With The Captives Aforementioned
assuming The Dilemma's To Rile The Guard
here's A Memo To Communicate Or Maybe You Should Demonstrate
instead Of Just Divulging Information In Regard
beyond The Shadow Of A Doubt, You Can Trample Yourself Out

playin' Hooky, Playin' Hooky
i Can't Walk Cool When I Got Books Underneath My Arm
i'm Playin' Hooky, I'm Playin' Hooky
and I'm Afraid I Would Be Failing To Be Hearing The Alarm
