Lyrics

The bell is ringing Can't you feel it, baby? Can't you feel it baby? Come on, come on Can't you feel it, baby? Can't you feel that, baby? In my new life I met plenty of girls But none that make me wanna do The things you make me do, said that I wanna learn What makes you feel good See Lord knows I tried to keep you satisfied The best way I could, baby See no woman Has laid love down on me The way that you laid it on me Keep on laying it on me, baby And I wanna learn all the things To keep you occupied I wanna give you my time, baby See, you be the teacher I won't be the fool, baby (I won't be no fool baby) I did my homework, baby And I'm ready for school You ca be the principal I'll follow the rules I did my homework, baby And I'm ready for school Come on and school me, baby (school me, baby) Won't you teach me, baby Show me, baby School me, baby I'll take notes So I can remember All the things that I do to make you scream (scream) Tell me what you like 'Cause I'm willing and able I can fulfill your every dream, baby See no woman Has ever made me wanna break down And give her everything I have to offer and even more See you're the kind of girl That'll make a man wanna give all this money Give up his cars, all of his dreams So baby, why don't you show me, said See, you be the teacher I won't be the fool (won't be no fool baby) I did my homework, baby (I did my homework) And I'm ready for school (I'm ready to learn, I'm ready to learn) You be the principal (you can be the principal) I'll follow your rules (I'll follow the rules) I did my homework, baby (and I'm back) And I'm ready for school (and I am back again) You be the teacher I won't be the fool (I won't be no fool yeah) I did my homework, baby (see I'm ready to learn) And I'm ready for school (I'm ready to learn) You be the principal (whatever you want baby) I'll follow your rules (I'm here to do) I did my homework, baby (see and I'm ready) And I'm ready for school (I'm ready, I'm ready for school) Teach me, baby (Come on baby) Show me, baby (Can't you hear the bell?) (Can't you feel the bell?) Come on help me, baby Why don' t you work me, baby? Do me, baby Show me, show me, hey You be the teacher (I wanna learn) I won't be the fool (whatever it is baby) I did my homework, baby (that makes you happy for you) And I'm ready for school You be the principal I'll follow your rules I did my homework, baby And I'm ready for school You be the teacher (you be the teacher) I won't, I won't be no fool, baby, hey hey And I'm ready, I'm ready, and I'm ready, I'm ready You be the principal I'll follow your rules I did my homework And I'm ready for school You be the teacher (wake me up in the morning baby) I won't be the fool I did my homework, baby (every morning and the afternoon) And I'm ready for school (whatever you want, whatever you need)
