Her voice is echoed in my mind

I count the days till she is mine

Can't tell my friends cause they will laugh

I love a girl from senior class

Woah oh

I daydream through my freshman math

While she fills out her college apps

I'll show her a world where we belong

But she'll have to drive us to the prom

That's what I go to school for

Even though it is a real bore

You can call me crazy

She is so amazing

That's what I go to school for

Even though it is a real bore

Girlfriends I've had plenty

But she's the one that I need

That's what I go to school for

That's what I go to school for

Her boyfriend's just turning nineteen

But that doesn't bother me

He's back at college out of town

I find a reason to go round

I climb a tree outside her home

To make sure that she's alone

She looks up and sees me there

Still I can't help but stop and stare

That's what I go to school for

Even though it is a real bore

You can call me crazy

She is so amazing

That's what I go to school for

Even though it is a real bore

Girlfriends I've had plenty

But she's the one that I need

That's what I go to school for

That's what I, what I, what I go to school for

Everyone that you see all day

Knows you're looking at me in a different way

I guess that's why my marks are getting so high

I can see those tell tale signs

Telling me that I was on your mind

I could see that you wanted more

When you told me that I'm what you go to school for

I'm what you go to school for

She's made her choice and I'm the one

At least till graduation comes

We drive past school to wave goodbye

My friends they can't believe thier eyes

That's what I go to school for

Even though it is a real bore

You can call me crazy

She is so amazing

That's what I go to school for

Even though it is a real bore

Girlfriends I've had plenty

But she's the one that I need

That's what I go to school for

That's what I, what I, what I go to school for
