Lyrics
Well, we got no choice
Expressing a lack of options or alternatives
All the girls and boys
Referring to both male and female students
Makin' all that noise
Describing the loud and energetic atmosphere
'Cause they found new toys
Suggesting excitement over new experiences or activities
Well, we can't salute ya
Unable to show respect or admiration
Can't find a flag
Unable to find a symbol of unity or identity
If that don't suit ya
If that doesn't appeal to you
That's a drag
Expressing disappointment or frustration
School's out for summer
Declaring the end of the school term
School's out forever
Emphasizing a permanent conclusion to school
School's been blown to pieces
Describing the severe disruption or destruction of school
No more pencils
No more need for writing instruments
No more books
No more textbooks or educational materials
No more teacher's dirty looks
No more disapproving looks from teachers
Well, we got no class
Highlighting the absence of structured classes
And we got no principles
No guiding beliefs or values
And we got no innocence
Lacking a sense of purity or naivety
We can't even think of a word that rhymes
Struggling to articulate positive ideas or thoughts
School's out for summer
Reiterating the end of the school term
School's out forever
Stressing the finality of the school's closure
School's been blown to pieces
Reinforcing the idea of the school's destruction
No more pencils
Continuing the theme of no need for writing tools
No more books
Continuing the theme of no need for textbooks
No more teacher's dirty looks
Continuing the theme of no disapproving looks from teachers
Out for summer
Reinforcing the idea of being out of school during the summer
Out 'til fall
Being out of school until the fall season
We might not go back at all
Suggesting the possibility of not returning to school
School's out forever
Emphasizing the permanent end of school
School's out for summer
Reiterating the conclusion of the school term
School's out with fever
Expressing an enthusiastic departure from school
School's out completely
Declaring the complete and final departure from school
