Lyrics
March, April, May
she crammed night and day I hadn't seen her smile in a while March, April, May she crammed night and day I hadn't seen her smile in a while staircase at the university she threw herself down and her head split three ways
"If you don't get three A's" her sweet daddy said "you're no child of mine and as far as I'm concerned you're dead" "if you don't get three A's", her sweet daddy said "You're no child of mine and as far as I'm concerned you're dead" staircase at the university she threw herself down and her head split three ways
"If you don't get three A's" her lovely boyfriend said, "your shame is sure to stain the family name" "if you don't get three A's" her lovely boyfriend said "your shame is sure to stain the family name" staircase at the university she threw herself down and her head split three ways
Cramming, jamming pack 'em in, ramming choc-a-bloc books power study, polish up and if it breaks your heart then don't come running to me cramming, slam 'in pack 'em in, ramming choc-a-bloc books power study, polish up and if it breaks your legs then don't come running to me.
