High School

My first year of high school was spent at a tiny little church school. Tiny. I think there was less than thirty people in the whole school. There was less than ten people in my class, which was 9 & 10 combined class. We had this iguana named Godzuki that was freakishly awesome!

Anyway... I was going to talk about the theme song for that year. In the glory that comes with becoming a high school student the boys in the class, all two of them, decided they were enamored with the song "Stacy's Mom" by Fountains of Wayne. It played on Pandora today and I couldn't but think of my class bellowing that song in unison during lunch breaks. There were a few other songs that came and went that year, but Stacy's Mom was the only one that stuck all year.

For anyone who has never heard Stacy's Mom here are the lyrics:

Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on

Stacy, can I come over after school? (after school)
We can hang around by the pool (hang by the pool)
Did your mom get back from her business trip? (business trip)
Is she there, or is she trying to give me the slip? (give me the slip)

You know, I'm not the little boy that I used to be
I'm all grown up now, baby can't you see

Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
She's all I want and I've waited for so long
Stacy, can't you see you're just not the girl for me
I know it might be wrong but I'm in love with Stacy's mom

Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on

Stacy, do you remember when I mowed your lawn? (mowed your lawn)
Your mom came out with just a towel on (towel on)
I could tell she liked me from the way she stared (the way she stared)
And the way she said, "You missed a spot over there" (a spot over there)

And I know that you think it's just a fantasy
But since your dad walked out, your mom could use a guy like me

Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
She's all I want, and I've waited so long
Stacy, can't you see you're just not the girl for me
I know it might be wrong,
but I'm in love with Stacy's mom

Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
She's all I want and I've waited for so long,
Stacy can't you see your just not the girl for me,
I know it might be wrong but oh oh
(I know it might be wrong)
I'm in love with (Stacy's mom oh oh)
(Stacys mom oh oh)
I'm in love with Stacy's mom
