Homeroom Songtext
von Steve Everett

Once upon a Monday just a couple of kids
We were talkin′ 'bout your weekend
When we should′ve been listenin'
Teacher came over and said to knock it off
I reached for your hand and told her it was all my fault

I've never been cool never been tough
Turkey and cheese with my cutoff crust
But you were my pizza Lunchable crush and I was tryin′
Tryin′ to be smooth coming off funny
Laughin' it off when you kissed my buddies
Playin′ the long game askin' your Dad for a tip or two
It was a hell of a trip tryin′ to make you fall in homeroom


Saturday morning just you and me and your boyfriend
You were takin' the hill too fast
And crashed in the neighbor′s fence
Neighbor's son heard us and he came outside
He cussed at you once and that's when I lost my first fight

I′ve never been cool never been tough
Turkey and cheese with my cutoff crust
But you were my pizza Lunchable crush and I was tryin′
Tryin' to be smooth coming off funny
Laughin′ it off when you kissed my buddies
Playin' the long game askin′ your Dad for a tip or two
It was a hell of a trip tryin' to make you fall in homeroom


I knew it was over long before you said a thing
But I′ll always love you just for showing me
How to be cool how to act tough
How I should chase after what I want
That I can find love with anyone who's worth the tryin'
While I′m tryin′ to be smooth coming off funny
Laughin' it off when you kissed my buddies
Playin′ the long game askin' your Dad for a tip or two
It was a hell of a trip tryin′ to make you fall in homeroom
It was a hell of a trip tryin' to make you fall in homeroom
