No, I don't ride on a schoolbus, I only have to roll out of bed
And instead of some dumb uniform, I can wear my pajamas instead
You may think I've got it easy, but home schooling's messin' with my head

I'm number one in my class, and that's where I'll always be,
'Cuz no matter how bad my grades are, I'm still at the top of the heap
You may think I've got it easy, but home schooling's makin' me weep

I've read the Oxford Dictionary preparing for the spelling bee
I can quote entire chapters from the Iliad and Odyssey
You may think I've got it easy, but home schooling ain't my cup of tea

I am the class President, and the captain of the football team
I was voted homecoming king, and most likely to succeed
You may think I've got it easy, but home schooling's makin' me scream

I'll probably go to Harvard or Stanford or MIT
I'm in the 99th percentile on the SAT and ACT
You may think I've got it easy, but home schooling nauseates me

Alternate ending:
You may think I've got it easy, but ... you know, home schooling - maybe it is for me!
