Lyrics:

Now normally if I can help it
I don't spend a lot of time in a Principal's Office

(RING) . . . What? . . . . 9 O'Clock!!!

Verse 1:
Now as I get to school I hear the late bell ringin',
Runnin' through the hall, I hear the glee club singin',
Get to the office I can hardly speak,
'Cause it's the third late pass that I got this week,
So to my first class I run and don't walk,
All I hear is my sneakers and the scratching of chalk,
And when I get to the room I hear the teacher say,
"Mr. Young I'm happy that you could join us today,"
I try to sit down so I can take some notes,
But I can't read what the kid next to me wrote,
And if that wasn't enough to make my morning complete,
As I try to get up, I find this gum on my seat,
And with the seat stuck to me, I raise my hand,
And say, "Excuse me but can I go to the bathroom, ma'am?"
The teacher got upset, and she screamed out "No,
It's off to the Principal's Office you go."

Verse 2:
12 o'clock comes with mass hysteria,
Everybody rushes down to the cafeteria,
Picked up my tray to have Thursday's lunch,
And when I tried the apple sauce, I heard it crunch,
I'm running up the stairs with my front tooth broken,
The nurse just laughs and says, "You must be jokin',"
I look up at her with a smile on my face,
No joke 'cause my front tooth is out of place,
So I walked to school with ice on my lip,
A nurse's late pass like a gun on my hip,
My books are real heavy, I'm walkin', I'm draggin' it,
No school lunch next week, I'm brown baggin' it,
Forget class, I'ma shoot some ball,
With a late pass I got no trouble at all,
But then the nurse walks up and says, "What do ya know,
It's off to the Principal's Office you go."

RECESS

Verse 3:
Passin' notes is my favorite pass time,
I can't wait to find a girl to pass mine to,
To express my feelin',
Give me a week, me and the girl'll be dealin',
Now one young lady was lookin' at me,
I said, "Hi, my name is Marvin, known as Young MC,
But then the ball rang, and the teacher came in,
And that's when the game of passin' notes would begin,
I wrote the first note, told her she was fine,
And I hope that the two of us could spend some time,
She wrote me back and told me you're fine, too
I'd love to go on a date and spend some time with you,
So then I sat there reeling, and lookin' at the ceilin',
Words can't express the way that I was feelin',
Then I thought to myself, the sure way to get her,
Is to write another note, oh yes, a love letter,
When I finished the note, it was ready to pass,
The teacher took it, and read it right in front of the class,
She read it word-by-word and line-by-line,
And everybody who was laughin' was a friend of mine,
Even my girl was laughin', it was too late,
No need to write another note 'cause there would be no date,
The teacher looked at me, and I said, "I know,
It's off to the Principal's Office I go."

Yo, you think this is bad?
Wait 'till I get my report card.
