Nunca Me He Sacado Un 7

Teachers and classmates
I want to tell you my drama
I have to come to school
But I don't like to study
I don't understand anything about literature
Numbers mean nothing to me
And if they ask me about history
I tell them: To hell with Vietnam

But there's something living in my body
That I'll never be able to control
It's my feet burning inside me
And they only ask me to dance

I will never get a seven
Because they don't give sevens for dancing
In school

The psychologist said dyslexia
The priest, seed of evil
Parents say I'm a bad influence
And the principal just wants to kick me out
I don't want to be a problem child
I just want to pass the grade
Get out of school somehow
And dance for a coin

May the steps take me far away
To the center of the capital
Let people give me grades
When they see my legs fly

I will never get a seven
Because they don't give sevens for dancing
In school

I will never get a seven
Because they don't give sevens for dancing
In school
