when I'm in college I'll have it made,
but for now I'm in second grade,
and I'm trying not to really mind,
but I'm marching back to school
and mom you gotta stay behind.
Autumn looms, summer fades,
I'm starting in a higher grade.
It's okay, I'll make new friends,
to tell the truth I'm a little tense.
on my locker combination.
There are higher expectations
as I'm marching back to school.
Hi -ho, it's off to school we go,
and for sure we know this
Here's a song to march us back to
the university starts today,
I'll fill the space inside my head,
But first I gotta get out of bed,
One class of mine it really sucks,
The textbook costs a hundred bucks,
to go marching back to school.
Hi -ho, it's off to school I go.
Three cheers and kick me in the rear.
Overworked and underpaid,
they're marching back to school
going for my first degree
I've got pencils and some shiny pens
Brand new clothes and estrogen
I'm as happy as I've ever been
To be marching back to school
Hi -ho, it's off to school we go
And for sure we know this
Here's a song to march us back to school.
