Alice Cooper - The Great American Success Story lyrics

He was born in a depressed nation
Started tough and worked his way
Right off the street
Thumbed his nose at a graduation
Wheeled and dealed
His education was complete

He's got all his hair
But his life is a wreck
Always been a brat, he don't get no respect
He's got the time, he's got the money
You better get out of his way
You better watch out for him, sonny

Back to school he's gonna take that plunge
Gonna jump back in there back to school
He's gonna shape his mind
Gonna shed old skin there back to school

Spent some time in appreciation of finer arts
And the human body mysteries
Scoring high in procreation
Got an 'A' in the study of female anatomy

He thinks about his teacher
In his literary class
He's staring at her legs
But he's dreaming 'bout her face
He's got the time he's got the money
You better get out of his way
You better watch out for him, sonny

Back to school he's gonna take that plunge
Gonna jump back in there back to school
He's gonna shape his mind
Gonna shed old skin there back to school
