Beauty School Dropout - The Theatreland Chorus

Your story sad to tell

A teenage ne’er do well

Most mixed up non-delinquent on the block

Your futures so unclear now

What’s left of your career now

Can’t even get a trade in on your smile

Beauty school dropout

No graduation day for you

Beauty school dropout

Missed your mid-terms and flunked shampoo

Well at least you could have taken time

To wash and clean your clothes up

After spending all that dough

To have the doctor fix your nose up

Better get movin

Why keep your feeble hopes alive

What are you provin

You’ve got the dream but not the drive

If you go for your diploma you could join the steno pool

Turn in your teasin' comb and go back to high school

Beauty school dropout

Hanging around the corner store

Beauty school dropout

It’s about time you knew the score

Well they couldn’t teach you anything

You think you’re such a looker

But no customer will go to you

Until she is a hooker

Baby don’t sweat it

You’re not cut out to hold a job

Better forget it

Who wants their hair done by a slob

Now your bangs are curled your lashes twirled

But still the world is cruel

Wipe off that angel face and go back to high school

Baby don’t blow it

Don’t put my good advice to shame

Baby you know it

Even dear Abby’d say the same

Now I’ve called the shot

Get off the pot, I really gotta fly

Gotta be going to that malt shop in the sky

Beauty school dropout (beauty school dropout)

Go back to high school

Beauty school dropout (beauty school dropout)

Go back to high school

Beauty school dropout (beauty school dropout)

Go back to high school
