Great American Success Story by Alice Cooper
Lyrics & Translation
English
He was born in a depressed nation
Started tough and worked his way right off the street
Thumbed his nose at a graduation
Wheeled and dealed, his education was complete
He's got all his hair, but his life is a wreck
Always been a brat, he don't get no respect
He's got the time, he's got the money
You better get out of his way
You better watch out for him, sonny
Back to school
He's gonna take that plunge
Gonna jump back in there
Back to school
He's gonna shape his mind
Gonna shed old skin there
Back to school
Spent some time in appreciation of finer arts
And the human body mysteries
Scoring high in procreation
Got an 'A' in the study of female anatomy
He thinks about his teacher in his literary class
He's staring at her legs
But he's dreaming 'bout her face
He's got the time
He's got the money
You better get out of his way
You better watch out for him, sonny
Back to school
He's gonna take that plunge
Gonna jump back in there
Back to school
He's gonna shape his mind
Gonna shed old skin there
Back to school

Started tough and worked his way right off the street
Thumbed his nose at a graduation
Wheeled and dealed, his education was complete
He's got all his hair, but his life is a wreck

Great American Success Story (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Nació en una nación deprimida
Empezó duro y se abrió camino desde la calle
Se burló de una graduación
Negoció y traficó, su educación estaba completa
Tiene todo su cabello, pero su vida es un desastre
Siempre ha sido un mocoso, no recibe respeto
Tiene el tiempo, tiene el dinero
Será mejor que te apartes de su camino
Será mejor que tengas cuidado con él, muchacho
De vuelta a la escuela
Va a dar ese paso
Va a volver a meterse ahí
De vuelta a la escuela
Va a moldear su mente
Va a mudar la piel vieja allí
De vuelta a la escuela
Pasó un tiempo apreciando las bellas artes
Y los misterios del cuerpo humano
Puntuando alto en procreación
Sacó una 'A' en el estudio de la anatomía femenina
Piensa en su maestra de su clase de literatura
Está mirando sus piernas
Pero está soñando con su cara
Tiene el tiempo
Tiene el dinero
Será mejor que te apartes de su camino
Será mejor que tengas cuidado con él, muchacho
De vuelta a la escuela
Va a dar ese paso
Va a volver a meterse ahí
De vuelta a la escuela
Va a moldear su mente
Va a mudar la piel vieja allí
De vuelta a la escuela
