Status Back Baby

Ooo-Ooo-Ooo [etc.]

AH-AH WA WA WA WA WA WA WAH!

I'm losin' status at the high school

I used to think that it was my school . . .

BOW WOW WOW WOW!

I was the king of every school activity

But that's no more . . . oh mama!

What will come of me?

The other night we painted posters

They played some records by the Coasters

BOW WOW WOW WOW!

A bunch of pom-pom girls looked down their nose at me.

They had painted tons of posters; I had painted three.

I hear the secret whispers everywhere I go

My school spirit is at an all-time low . . . BLA-A-A-A!

I'm losing status at the high school

I used to think that it was my school . . .

BOW WOW WOW WOW!

Everyone in town knows I'm a hand-some football star

I sing & dance & spray my hair & drive a shiny car

I'm friendly & I'm charming . . . I belong to De Molay

I'm gonna try like mad to get my status back today!

Status back baby

Status back baby

Status back baby

Status back baby
