FRANKIE AVALON Beauty School Dropout Lyrics

Your story's sad to tell a teenage ne'er do well
Most mixed up nondelinquent on the block
Your future's so unclear now
What's left of your career now
Can't even get a trade in on your smile

Beauty school dropout no graduation day for you
Beauty school dropout missed your midterms and flunked shampoo
Well at least you could have taken time to wash and clean your clothes up
After spending all that dough to have the doctor fix your nose up

Baby get moving (better get moving)
Why keep your feeble hopes alive
What are you proving (what are you proving)
You've got the dream but not the drive
If you go for your diploma you could join a steno pool
Turn in your teasin' comb and go back to highschool

Beauty school dropout hangin' around the corner store
Beauty school dropout it's about time you knew the score
Well they couldn't teach you anything you think you're such a looker
But no customer would go to you unless she was a hooker

Baby don't sweat it (don't sweat it)
You're not cut out to hold the job
Better forget it (forget it)
Who wants their hair done by a slob
Now your bangs are curled your lashes twirled and still the world is cruel
Wipe off that angel face and go back to high school

Baby don't blow it don't put my good advice to shame
Baby you know it even Dear Abby'd say the same
Now I've called the shot get off the pot I really gotta fly

Gotta be goin' to that maltshop in the sky

Beauty school dropout go back to highschool
Beauty school dropout go back to highschool
Beauty school dropout go back to highschool
