Spring break made me think of “school’s out” and that made me think of the old Alice Cooper song. So I rewrote the lyrics with a Spring break theme.<\/em><\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Spring Break!<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

To the tune “School’s out!” by Alice Cooper<\/font><\/p>\n

Can’t pick and choose ’em,
\nlike sewin’ a hem.
\nCan’t take or leave ’em,
\nlike plannin’ your REM
\nThey’re built into the sked.
\nVacation time’s set
\nby some egghead’s
\ntime sublet.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Spring break is startin’
\nTime out for piggin’.
\nYoo Hoo, Reese’s Pieces.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

No more pencils
\nNo more books
\nNo more teacher’s dirty looks<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Well we got no class,
\nand we got no principles,
\nand we got no innocence.
\nBut we’re good at double entendres.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

School’s out for Spring break.
\nSchool’s out till next week.
\nAll brainwashing ceases.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

No more pencils
\nNo more books
\nNo more teacher’s dirty looks<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Out for this week,
\nthen go back.
\nSouvenirs in your backpack.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Time out for piggin’.
\nSpring break is startin’.
\nCatch some Spring fever.
\nVeg out completely.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

The original lyrics to “School’s Out”:<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Well we got no choice
\nAll the girls and boys
\nMakin all that noise
\n‘Cause they found new toys
\nWell we can’t salute ya
\nCan’t find a flag
\nIf that don’t suit ya
\nThat’s a drag <\/font><\/p>\n

School’s out for summer
\nSchool’s out forever
\nSchool’s been blown to pieces. <\/font><\/p>\n

No more pencils
\nNo more books
\nNo more teacher’s dirty looks<\/font><\/p>\n

Well we got no class
\nAnd we got no principles
\nAnd we got no innocence
\nWe can’t even think of a word that rhymes<\/font><\/p>\n

School’s out for summer
\nSchool’s out forever
\nSchool’s been blown to pieces<\/font><\/p>\n

No more pencils
\nNo more books
\nNo more teacher’s dirty looks<\/font><\/p>\n

Out for summer
\nOut till fall
\nWe might not go back at all <\/font><\/p>\n

School’s out forever
\nSchool’s out for summer
\nSchool’s out with fever
\nSchool’s out completely <\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
