Let's go back to school

I used to get the highest marks
I used to be top of the class
I once believed I'd rule the whole world
I used to push the biggest weight
I fooled myself I ran the place
I once believed that was the real world

All our youth and all our cash need something to do
We'll attract admiring glances
Let's go back to school, let's go back to school
Wide eyes and distant plans, that's an offer you can't refuse
We'll even turn up to our classes
Let's go back to school, let's go back to school

I once believed... I once believed I was the don
Hello, hello, hello, you can't get enough of me
Hello, hello, hello, I couldn't get enough of me
Spent every evening chasing skirts
I thought I looked so good it hurts
I used to think I had it all down

All our youth and all our cash need something to do
We'll attract admiring glances
Let's go back to school, let's go back to school
Wide eyes and distant plans, that's an offer you can't refuse
We'll even turn up to our classes
Let's go back to school, let's go back to school

Drank my loan and now I owe the banks a lot,
But down the hatch it goes
Tried acting tough and all grown up,
Though cringe to watch did not last long enough

All our youth and all our cash need something to do
We'll attract admiring glances
Let's go back to school, let's go back to school
Wide eyes and distant plans, that's an offer you can't refuse
We'll even turn up to our classes
Let's go back to school, let's go back to school

I once believed, I once believed
I once believed, I once believed... That it was real
