Caroline Was a Drop-Out

Lyrics

I would like to introduce you To a friend of mine, Caroline When I knew her she was younger But then so was I, Caroline Lazy child, she was poking fun at those Who worked hard all their lives She said that she survived But instead she's growing under Maybe got something to do with the fact that… Caroline - she was an outcast, a typical smart ass Caroline - she was a dropout, a permanent copout Dropout, dropout, dropout Dropout, dropout, dropout If you want her, here's a portrait Of a waisted mind, Caroline Don't condemn her, don't commend her Don't give pearls to swines, Caroline Mangy child, now she dances at The Pussycat And other topless dives Somehow the girl capsized And she steady going under Maybe got something to do with the fact that… Caroline - she was an outcast, a typical smart ass Caroline - she was a dropout, a permanent copout Dropout, dropout, dropout Dropout, dropout, dropout She has the tendency To blame society I got no sympathy She had the same opportunities as me Caroline, Caroline Crazy child, she preferred the sordid company Of shiftless older guys And she was once in style Oh but now she's on the bottom Maybe got something to do with the fact that… Caroline - she was an outcast, a typical smart ass Caroline - she was a dropout, a permanent copout Dropout, dropout, dropout Dropout, dropout, dropout She had the tendency To blame society I got no sympathy She had the same opportunities as me Copout, copout, copout Oh Caroline was a dropout She was a dropout, dropout, dropout Oh Caroline was a dropout Dropout Go away Charlie Charlie, blow over here Charlie Dropout, dropout, dropout, dropout
