BOYZ II MEN
"Beauty School Dropout"

[Verse 1: Boyz II Men]
Your story sad to tell
A teenage ne'er do well
Most mixed up non-delinquent on the block
Your future's so unclear now
What's left of your career now?
Can't even get a trade in on your smile

[Interlude - Boyz II Men and Grease Live Cast:]
(La la la la la la la la...)

[Verse 2: Boyz II Men]
Beauty school dropout
No graduation day for you
Beauty school dropout
Missed your midterms and flunked shampoo
Well at least you could have taken time
To wash and clean your clothes up
After spending all that dough to
Have the doctor fix your nose up

[Verse 3: Boyz II Men]
Baby, get moving (Baby, get moving)
Why keep your feeble hopes alive?
What are you proving? (What are you proving?)
You've got the dream but not the drive
If you go for your diploma, you could join a sneto pool
Turn in your teasin' comb and go back to high school

[Interlude - Boyz II Men and Grease Live Cast:]
(La la la la la la la la...)

[Verse 4: Boyz II Men & (Grease Live Cast)]
Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)
Hanging around the corner store
Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)
It's about time you knew the score
Well they couldn't teach you anything
You think you're such a looker
But no customer would go to you unless she was a hooker

[Verse 5: Boyz II Men]
Baby, don't sweat it (Don't sweat it)
You're not cut out to hold a job
Better forget it (Forget it)
Who wants their hair done by a slob?
Now your bangs are curled
Your lashes whirled
But still the world is cruel
Wipe off that angel face and go back to high school

[Verse 6: Boyz II Men & (Grease Live Cast)]
Baby, don't blow it (Baby, don't blow it)
Don't put my good advice to shame
Baby, you know it (Baby, you know it)
Even Dear Abby'd say the same!
Now I've called the shot, get off the block
We really gotta fly!
Gotta be going to that, malt shop, in the sky!

[Outro: Boyz II Men & (Grease Live Cast)]
Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)
Go back to high school
Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)
Go back to high school
Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)
Go back to high school
