James Bonamy Heartbreak School lyrics

Let me tell you 'bout my alma mater
Well, I got educated by a rich man's daughter
I didn't have to read a single book
One lesson is all it took

My diploma reads First Class Fool
I graduated from Heartbreak School

They don't teach science, they don't teach math
Our love is history, is your only class
You do your homework every lonely night
Study memories till the morning light

Forget about her is the golden rule
That's what they teach you at Heartbreak School

You don't get recess, you don't get lunch
You don't get vacation when the summer time comes
You don't get in 'cause they think you're smart
You pay tuition with a broken heart

Well, I learned to cry, I learned to moan
I learned I hate to spend my nights alone
I studied hard on how do I forget you then I
Wrote a speech on wish I'd never met you


I got accepted to who needs you
I was the Valedictorian at Heartbreak School

Well, you don't get recess, you don't get lunch
You don't get vacation when the summer time comes
You don't get in 'cause they think you're smart
You pay tuition with a broken heart

So come enroll if you've been mistreated
Get extra credit if your baby cheated
All you need are tears and misery
To start working toward your PhD

Everybody past the age of two
Gets educated at Heartbreak School
If you're in love with someone who don't love you
Well, you're a honor student in Heartbreak School

You'll never find yourself a love that's true
Until you've graduated from Heartbreak School
