[Intro]
Wooh!
Do you ever seem to have one of those days
Where everyone's on your case
From your teacher all the way down
To your best girlfriend?
Well, y’know I used to have those about all the time
But I found a way to get out of it
Let me tell you about!

[Verse 1]
I'm sitting in the classroom thinking it's a drag
Listening to the teacher rap, it just isn't my bag
When two bells ring, you know it's my cue
I'm gonna meet the boys on floor number two

[Chorus]
Smoking in the boys room
Smoking in the boys room
Now Teacher, don't you fill me up with your rule
'Cause everybody knows that smoking ain't allowed in school

[Verse 2]
Checking out the halls, making sure the coast is clear
Looking in the stalls, nah, there ain't nobody here
My buddies, Sixx, Mick, and Tom
To get caught would surely be the death of us all

[Chorus]
Smoking in the boys room
I was smoking in the boys room
Now teacher, don't you fill me up with your rule
'Cause everybody knows that smoking ain't allowed in school
Hey, can I be excused?

[Guitar solo]

[Verse 3]
Well, put me to work in the school book store
Check-out counter and I got bored
The teacher was looking for me all around
Two hours later, you know where I was found

[Chorus]
Smoking in the boys room
I tell you I was smoking in the boys room
Now teacher, don't you fill me up with your rules
Everybody knows that smoking ain't allowed in school

[Bridge]
Smoking in the boys room
Smoking in the boys room
I tell you, I was smoking in the boys room
Smoking in the boys room
Hey teacher, don't you fill me up with your rule
'Cause everybody knows that smoking ain't allowed in school
One more!

[Outro]
Smoking in the boys room
Smoking in the boys room
Hey, teacher, I ain't fooling around with your rules
Everybody knows that smoking ain’t allowed in school

Mötley Crüe is the symbol of the 1980s rock n roll attitude. Formed in Los Angeles, California on January 17, 1981, the group was founded by bassist Nikki Sixx and drummer Tommy Lee, later joined by Mick Mars on the guitar and Vince Neil on the microphone.

Mötley Crüe has revolutionized the rock scene multiple times and officially introduced the idea of the rock show with fireworks, barely dressed girls and flamethrowers. They sold more than 100 million records worldwide.
