<b>Back To School</b> by <i>School For The Dead</i><br />

The tape starts as I'm backing out of my garage

Hit the breaks, stop, no wait, I guess it was just a mirage

It's a long ride heading down 202

It took a long time trying to get through to you

It's a long, long ride

But I'll make it ever Friday night.

In the basement there's a telephone built for two

A chair and a string that stretches from me to you

There's a long pause before we speak

It's a hard time trying to get through the week

It's a long, long ride

But I'll make it ever Friday night.

You're going back to school

For another year

Back to school

But I'm staying here

Back to school

For another year

But it's OK, you're only five days away

In the dorm there's a girl and she's typing out his name

There's someone at the door but she's typing out his name

There are cables in a circuit of underground streams

So she's able, in a second, to shatter your dreams

It's a long, long ride

But I'll miss it every Friday night.

You're going back to school

For another year

Back to school

But I'm staying here

Back to school

For another year

But it's OK, you're only five days away
