Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And we deserve a French teacher
Who actually speaks French
J'accuse, Monsieur Kupferberg
[Verse 2]
What is she yakkin' about?
I rest my case
[Verse 3]
Nelson? Rebuttal?
Yo, everyone
It's me, Nelson
(Yay!)
(Nelson, Nelson)
(Nelson, Nelson)
[Verse 4]
I'm not that cool, I don't wear jeans
I've polished an apple or two
But every grade that I grubbed
I grubbed it for you
[Verse 5]
So call me book worm
But I'll never squirm when there's work to be done
Yes I'll take my lunch at my desk
While you're all outside having fun
[Verse 6]
Don't vote for me, kids of Springfield
Unless you want an effective leader
I'll talk to teachers, I'll handle Skinner
A vote for Lisa makes you the winner
[Verse 7]
Vote Lisa, vote Lisa, vote Lisa
[Verse 8]
You wanted to see me?
Actually Lisa, I wanted you to see you
You're our president now
But you look like the First Lady of Yawn
What would you change?
[Verse 9]
Eyes, pearls, smile, hair points
Dress, voice, shoes, swatch watch
[Verse 10]
I may be the new girl
But you can't brainwash me
Just Oshkosh B'gosh me
And then leave me be
To fight for kid power
I must be heard, not seen
I have to lead wisely
Not just primp and preen
[Verse 11]
Nails, pimples, ears, scrunchie
Purse, lunch box, teeth, Millhouse
This beauting-up suits me
There's beauty within me
So let's Olsen Twin me
Give them someone to love
This grown-up makeover
Has made me a super tween
For they are my people
And I am their queen
[Verse 12]
Oh Lisa
You look so successful
Like you're the wife of a businessman
I wish I'd married a businessman
Then I'd have nice things
[Verse 13]
I'm so happy with my evil plan
Say goodbye to music, gym and art
Soon we will have the perfect school
Where fun and excitement never start
[Verse 14]
I'm so drunk I can barely see
But it helps me get through another day
My stomach is filled with haggis and ham
I've got to go puke in some hay
[Verse 15]
Lisa is a fool
I think the rules are cool
I'm falling in the pool!
[Verse 16]
Mmm, not a cloud in the sky
A perfect day to unveil Operation SLAAAM
So Long Athletics Art And Music
Care for a T-shirt?
[Verse 17]
T-shirt?
Why don't you just give me
A sandwich board that says
"Male Prostitute"?
[Verse 18]
Oh, well, I-
Forgive me, sir
[Verse 19]
What have I done?
What they wanted you to
Skinner betrayed me
But a tango takes two
[Verse 20]
Skinner!
I don't mean to interrupt
Your advice from the janitor
But I say, cut off the head
And the body will die
[Verse 21]
You want to get rid of Lisa?
But she's such a good student
[Verse 22]
Yes, in fact I think
She's a little too good for this school
[Verse 23]
If we stand together, we are strong
(Yay!)
[Verse 24]
Lisa Simpson, you have just been transferred
To the Springfield Magnet School for the
Gifted and troublesome
Please climb into the idling bus
[Verse 25]
But, but I-
[Verse 26]
Poor Lisa, poor Lisa
Don't cry for me, kids of Springfield
You can still reach me through email
At Smart Girl six three, underscore backslash
At Yahoo dot com
