2nd Grade - Held Back lyrics

All the other kids are having a good time
All the other kids are on track
All the other kids got through on
The first try i'm being held back
All the other kids are off for the summer
All the other kids were cut slack
All the other kids are off, getting dumber
I'm being held back
Second grade was such a drag
Man, I thought I had it in the bag
Then I got my report card and
This is what it said

I'm being held back
I'm being held back (Being held back)
I'm being held back (Being held back)
I'm being held back
I'm being held back (Being held back)
I'm being held back (Being held back)
I'm being held back i'm being held back
I'm being held, being held back
I'm being held back i'm being held back
