Money and the Fame Lyrics

Tuesday morning, just gotta find the key

No time to spare, I'm late for PLC

Intercom's busy calling out my name

Gotta learn how to play the game

Teaching to a test, I'm reaching for the STAAR

It's got me all FUBAR

Those scores'll come out and again I'll take the blame

But at least I get the MONEY AND THE FAME

What do I do when they don't write their name

I'm not a video game

This kid can't read - let's test him just the same

But at least I get the money and the fame

So tired I can't even think

This job - it'll drive you to drink

And these parents ain't got no shame

Don't have an xbox, so the boys think I'm lame

Roll with the punches, that's how you play the game

They call me mister 'cause they never knew my name

Monday morning, the kids ain't got a clue

The struggle is real and I wish I knew

Where to go when the lesson's gone down in flames
