Teenage Life Lyrics

Now hear this

"What did you learn at school today?"
That's what the teachers used to say (oh yeah)
But they don't know, don't understand, do they?
Why do they always give advice? (always)
Saying: "Just be nice, always think twice"
When it's been a long time since they had a teenage life (lets go)

"What did you learn at school today?" (what did ya learn, what did ya learn)
That's what the teachers used to say
But they don't know, don't understand, do they? (why)
Why do they always give advice? (always, always)
Saying: "Just be nice, always think twice"
When it's been a long time since they had a teenage life

Dwelling on the past, from back when I was young
Thinking of my school days and trying to write this song
Classroom schemes and dreams, man, they couldn't save me
'Cause my days were numbered when I signed down on Avy (Avy)
Teenage kicks running out, what could we do?
I still show respect to my boys who made it through
And getting told off Mr T how my life would be
Then giving him a signal, so everyone could see (could see)
Sunshine and shade, those girls I'd serenade
Thinking of those sixth form chicks that misbehave (whatever)
Hoping that those days would go on and on forever
Every day something new, just friends running together (together)
But suddenly school ends, your teenage life's gone (lifes gone)
All your mates are growing up now, they're moving on (moving on)
And now I'm looking back, I'll tell you what I knowDawn - Teenage Life - http://motolyrics.com/dawn/teenage-life-lyrics.html
Do you listen to your teacher? No, I don't think so

"What did you learn at school today?" (yeah, yeah)
That's what the teachers used to say
But they don't know, don't understand, do they?
Why do they always give advice?
Saying: "Just be nice, always think twice"
When it's been a long time since they had a teenage life

Now if you treat the kids fine, together they will shine (yeah yeah)
Ooh ooh ooh... shine ( we all will shine) (hear me now)
And if you give the kids time, they won't do the crime (No, No)
Won't do the crime (give them a little time)

Now my bad old ways were during my school days
Messing on those grade A's, my life is just a haze
I'm going through the struggle, five ten and kicking back
So I could lock my flow, lace it up now on the track
Oh yeah, I felt the pain, whilst chasing all the fame
I'm being told I'm nothing, just a player in the game
But now I walk tall, stand proud for you to see
I'm driving these fast cars, it's five stars for me

"What did you learn at school today?"
That's what the teachers used to say
But they don't know, don't understand, do they? (don't know nothing)
Why do they always give advice? (always giving advice yeah)
Saying: "Just be nice, always think twice"
When it's been a long time since they had a teenage life
(yeah yeah) when it's been a long time since they had a teenage life
