Straight A's In Love (Empire Burlesque Outtake)

You ain’t so good in arithmetic, baby

You don’t know how to count

When it comes to spending money

It’s never the right amount

But baby, you know, two and two is four

Baby, that’ll be the day

But in love, crazy love, you get straight A’s

In history, you don’t do too well

You don’t know how to read

You could confuse Geronimo

With Johnny Appleseed*

And if you don’t know who Thomas Edison is

Well, baby, that’s OK

But in love, crazy love, you get straight A’s

You could fall right off the honour roll

You wouldn’t need a shove

But you graduate with honours

From the school of love, well …

You aren’t doing too well in geography

Baby, you can never read a map

And if you hear that teacher starts talking

It’s a time to take a nap

You thought that England is in Spain

Baby, that’s OK

But in love, crazy love, you get straight A’s
