[Verse 1]
Teaching at the school
Feeling like a fool
Tell me what I did wrong
Everbody use to love my songs
Now I'm just a teacher mum
[Verse 2]
What a big mistake
My [?] ache
Killed my rock'n'rolling dreams
The boy who loves a big tall trees and me
Well I belong in ammity
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I'll play rock
And then I'll play along
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Wake up the kid
Good morning its breakfast
I know you how you like your bananas
Quit with the screeching
Schools in an hour
Well my dreams are dying
You'll be multiplying
You're gonna like your new school
[Verse 3]
Shane doesn't know
That very long ago
When dad and I were still quite thin
Oh we came upon a baby chimp
Decided that we'd take it in
Forgetting all our dreams
We took him as it seems
We had a little family
For seven hundred bucks a week, I teach
And it pays for all the food Shane eats
And he eats a lot
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I'll play rock
And then I'll play along
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Wake up the kid
Good morning its breakfast
I know you how you like your bananas
Quit with the screeching
Schools in an hour
Well my dreams are dying
You'll be multiplying
You're gonna like your new school
[Outro]
Well it could have been me
Upon the stage
Yeah it could have been me
That worked for the chimp in the cage
Oh it could have been me
Upon the stage
Yeah it could have been me
That worked for the chimp in the cage
Oh it could have been my
Upon the stage
It could have been me
