HEY SCHOOLGIRL
Paul Simon - 1957


Hey, Schoolgirl in the second row
The teacher's lookin' over 
so I got to whisper way down low
To say, "Who-bop-a-loo-chi-bop, let's meet
after school at three."

She said, "Hey, babe, but there is one thing more
My school is over at half past four
Maybe when we're older then we can date
O - oh, let's wait!"

Hey, Schoolgirl in the second row
The teacher's lookin' over 
To say, "Who-bop-a-loo-chi-bop, let's meet
after school at three."

She said, "Hey, babe, I gotta lot to do, 
It takes me hours till my homework's thru,
Someday we'll go steady, so don't you fret.
O - oh, not yet!"

Hey, Schoolgirl in the second row
The teacher's lookin' over 
so I got to whisper way down low
To say, "Who-bop-a-loo-chi-bop, let's meet
after school at three."

Then she turned around to me
with that gleam in her eye
She said, "I'm sorry if I passed you by,
I'm gonna skip my homework 
gonna cut my class,
Bug out of here real fast."

Hey, Schoolgirl in the second row
Now we're going steady, 
hear the words that I want you to know
Well it's "Who-bop-a-loo-chi-bop, you're mine, 
I knew it all the time."
Who-bop-a-loo-chi-bop, hah, you're mine
