School love - school love
The only thing you learn in school is ABC
But all I want to know about is you and me
I went and told the teacher 'bout the thing we found
But all she said to me is that you're out of bounds at
School love, school love
Even though we broke the rule
I only want to be ruled in
School love, school love
You an' I will be together, end-of-term until forever
They never ever teach you in history
And yet we seem to learn about it easily
I went and wrote 'I love you' on the classroom wall
I wanted ev'ry one to know the way to fall in 
School love, school love
Even though we broke the rules
I only want to be ruled in
School love, school love
You an' I will be together, end-of-term until forever
After school, oh, I'll be walkin' you home
Just me and you - my very own - very own
School love, school love ....
