Staircase at the University Lyrics

March, April, May
She crammed night and day
I hadn't seen her smile in awhile

March, April, May
She crammed night and day
I hadn't seen her smile in awhile

Staircase at the university
she threw herself down
and her head split three ways

If you don't get three A's
her sweet daddy said
you're no child of mine and as far as I'm concerned, you're dead
If you don't get three A's
her sweet daddy said
you're no child of mine and as far as I'm concerned, you're dead

Staircase at the university
she threw herself down
and her head split three ways

If you don't get three A's
her lovely boyfriend said
Your shame is sure to stain the family name
If you don't get three A's
her lovely boyfriend said
You're shame is sure to stain the family name

Staircase at the university
She threw herself down
and her head split three ways

Ramming, jamming
Pack em’ in, ramming
Chock-a-block
Power study, Polish up
If it breaks your heart then don't come running to me

Ramming, jamming
Pack em’ in, ramming
Chock-a-block
Power study, Polish up
If if breaks your legs then don't come running to me
