Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, you think that's funny?
You think it's funny 'cause I want you to teach me?
Because I want a lover who makes you feel good
I'm sad and up , c'mon, baby
[Verse 2]
The bell is ringing
Can't you feel it, baby?
Can't you feel it, baby?
C'mon, c'mon
Can't you feel it, baby?
Can't you feel that, baby?
[Verse 3]
In my new life, I met plenty of girls
But none that make me wanna do
The things you make me do, say that
I wanna learn
What makes you feel good (Feel good)
See, Lord knows I tried to keep you satisfied
The best way I could, baby
[Verse 4]
See, no woman has laid love down on me
The way that you laid it on me
Keep on layin' on me, baby
And I wanna learn all the things to keep you occupied
I wanna give you my time, baby
[Verse 5]
See, you be the teacher, yeah
I won't be the fool (I won't be no fool, baby)
I did my homework, baby (See, I'm comin')
And I'm ready for school
You can be the principal
(And I'll, I'll follow the rules) I'll follow your rules
I did my homework, baby (Ah, baby, I love you)
And I'm ready for school (Ready for school)
[Verse 6]
C'mon and school me, baby (School me, baby)
Won't you teach me, baby?
Show me, baby
School me, baby (School me, baby)
[Verse 7]
I'll take notes so I can remember
All the things that I do to make you scream (Scream)
Tell me what you like, 'cause I'm willin' and able
I can fulfill your every dream, baby
[Verse 8]
See, no woman has ever made me wanna break down
And give her everything I have to offer and even more
See, you're the kind of girl
That'll make a man wanna give all his money
Give up his cars, all his dreams
So, baby, why don't you show me? Say
[Verse 9]
See, you be the teacher, baby
I won't be the fool (I won't be no fool, baby)
I did my homework, baby (I did my homework)
And I'm ready for school (I'm ready to learn, I'm ready to learn)
You be the principal (You can be the principal)
I'll follow your rules (I'll follow the rules)
I did my homework, baby (And I'm ready)
And I'm ready for school (And I'm ready)
[Verse 10]
You be the teacher (Hey, hey, hey)
I won't be the fool (I won't be no fool, baby)
I did my homework, baby (See, I'm ready to learn)
And I'm ready for school (I'm ready to learn)
You be the principal (Whatever you want, baby)
I'll follow the rules (I'm there to do)
I did my homework, baby (See, and I'm ready)
And I'm ready for school (I'm ready, I'm ready for school)
[Verse 11]
School me, baby, teach me, baby (C'mon, baby)
Show me, baby, school me, baby (Can't you hear the bell?)
Can't you hear the bell? C'mon, help me, baby
Why don't you work me?
Do me, baby
Show me, show me, hey
[Verse 12]
You be the teacher (I wanna learn)
I won't be the fool (Whatever it is, baby)
I did my homework, baby (That makes you love me, baby)
And I'm ready for school (Hey, hey, hey, hey, b-baby)
You be the principal (I wanna make you feel good)
I'll follow your rules (I wanna make you feel good)
I did my homework, baby (Hey, hey, hey)
And I'm ready for school (And I'm ready, baby)
(C'mon, do me, baby, baby)
[Verse 13]
You be the teacher (Be the teacher)
I won't, I won't be no fool, baby, hey, hey
And I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready
Yeah, you be the principal
I'll follow the rules
I did my homework
And I'm ready for school
[Verse 14]
You be the teacher (Wake me up in the mornin', baby)
I won't be the fool
I did my homework, baby (Every mornin' and the afternoon)
And I'm ready for school
(Go and late assign whatever you want, whatever you need)
You be the principal (You can be the principal)
