1. You're sittin' on the school bus starin' out the window .. too late to do the homework, or to study for the quiz. And, you're wishin' that some ALIEN would take you to ANDROMEDA .. 'cause they don't HAVE any homework, where Andromeda is! CHORUS: OH WELL! THAT'S LIFE! Sometimes you have to face it .. all the wishin' in the world, isn't gonna erase it. Yesterday's over, it's a thing of the past .. and TODAY is a brand new day! HEY! 2. DEAR TEACHER .. I couldn't do my homework. I wanted more than anything to do it, instead .. But, this teeny-greeny alien took me to ANDROMEDA .. And by the time he brought me home again .. I had to go to bed! CHO 3. DEAR MOM .. I couldn't dump the garbage. (spoken) Now, I KNOW .. leavin' it in the driveway wasn't very cool .. But, this teeny-greeny alien took me to ANDROMEDA .. And by the time he brought me home again .. I had to go to school! CHO 4. DEAR DENTIST .. I couldn't floss or gargle. I couldn't brush my teeth .. though I was dyin' to do IT! But, this teeny-greeny alien took me to ANDROMEDA .. Where it's diplomatically insensitive to froth and spit! CHO 5. So .. I'm sittin' on the school bus .. starin' out the window. Too late to do my homework, or to study for the test .. And, I'm wishin' that some ALIEN would take you to ANDROMEDA .. (spoken) YOU KNOW .. SOMETIMES IT'S HARD TO REMEMBER .. THAT .. basically, I'm doin' my best! CHO
