(Skip Ewing/Donny Kees)



Let me tell you 'bout my alma mater

Got educated by a rich man's daughter

I didn't have to read a single book

One lesson is all it took

My diploma reads First Class Fool

I graduated from Heartbreak School



They don't teach science they don't teach math

Our love is history is your only class

You do your homework every lonely night

Study memories till the morning light

Forget about her is the golden rule

That's what they teach you in heartbreak school



You don't get recess you don't get lunch

You don't get vacation when summer time comes

You don't get in cause they think your smart

You pay tuition with a broken heart



I learned to cry and I learned to moan

I learned I hate to spend my nights alone

I studied hard on how do I forget you (then I..)

Wrote a speech on wish I'd never met you

I got accepted to who needs U

I was the Valedictorian at Heartbreak school



You don't get recess you don't get lunch

You don't get vacation when summer time comes

You don't get in cause they think your smart

You pay tuition with a broken heart



So come enroll if you've been mistreated

Get extra credit if your baby cheated

All you need are tears and misery

To start working toward your Ph.D

Everybody past the age of two

Gets educated at Heartbreak School

You'll never find yourself a love that's true

'Til you've graduated from Heartbreak School
