Children sighing, teachers crying,
It's our jobs on the line,
In the air there's a feeling of panic.
Accreditation,
Humiliation,
When the scores are returned,
And on every street corner you'll hear...
S.O.L.s, S.O.L.s
It's testing time in Virginia.
Burger King,
Hear us sing,
Soon we'll be knocking at your door!
Then there's Wal-Mart, maybe K-Mart
Mickey-D's sure sounds fine,
There's no test that we give to the customers.
We'll just smile nice,
No more head lice,
There will be no more stress,
And on every street corner you'll hear...
S.O.L.s, S.O.L.s
It's testing time in Virginia.
Hang in there,
Don't despair,
Soon it will be summertime!
