The Last Day Of High School
It's the early '60s, and it's the last day of high school. The doo wop boys are singing in the bathroom, and here comes the instant nostalgia for the not-so good not-so old days.
Brand new old songs of the '30s, '40s, '50s and '60s.
Lyrics
It’s the last day of high school
The place is so empty and bare
Now here I am with my yearbook to sign
And all through the halls, there’s nobody there
It’s the last time forever we’ll be together, playin’ it cool...
I’ll borrow some wheels
Get a six-pack of Piel’s
Darlin’ now you know how it feels...
On the last day of high school.
It’s the last day for forging hall passes
The last day for cheating on tests
The last day for cutting our classes
The last day for carving our names in the desks
It’s the last time for being teens, acting mean, and breaking rules.
No more traveling in herds
No more tormenting nerds
Darlin’ it’s just too sad for words...
On the last day of high school.
We’ve come so far since freshman year
Now we’re the big senior class.
The next time we’re seniors
We’ll really be seniors
And sleep with our teeth on the sink in a glass.
It’s the last of the malt shop, it’ll all stop...ain’t it cruel?
No more hard words to spell
No more gym bags to smell
We can’t tell heaven from hell
On the last day of high school.
It’s the last gasp of school spirit
It’s the last we’ll believe in such crap
Guess I’ll enlist in the Navy
I’ll get a tattoo and a dose of the clap
It’s the last of the kid stuff...Now it’s big stuff for me and you...
Now we’ll get the results
Here we go...oy gevault
Darlin’ now I guess we’re adults
It’s the last day of high school.
