Lyrics
Recess
Put down that pencil and your ruler too
Too nice a day outside to be hanging around the school
I spoke with Vanessa and she agreed with Paul
They're gonna answer "here" for us whenever the roll is called
Watermelon is icing down I've got the blankets here in the car
Just need to make one stop to pick up my guitar
Chorus. It's time for Recess
Oh, because it's such a lovely day
I'm declaring recess, come on
You know it's time we play
I'm gonna miss a few classes but they'll just have to wait
I'll study extra hard tomorrow cuz today I'm taking a break
Gonna miss a little history but when this day is done
We'll recall the history of having so much fun
I'm headed out to the parking lot darling don't let me leave here alone
Chances are that we'll be back before they've realized we've gone
Chorus. It's time for Recess
Oh, because it's such a lovely day
I'm declaring recess, come on
You know it's time we play
I don't know what tomorrow holds darling I'm gonna live for today
I might have to pay the price but that's the price I have to pay
Chorus. Cuz it's time for Recess
Oh, because it's such a lovely day
I'm declaring recess, come on
You know it's time we play
Chorus. I'm declaring Recess
Oh, because it's such a lovely day
I'm declaring recess, come on
You know it's time we play
Time out...na na na na
They'll just have to, they'll just have to wait
Much too nice a day la la la la
La la la la la la Na na na na
Na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
