    All About the Lockers

    The time is really here, the sun is blazing hot

    The summers waiting for us, but elementary’s not

    We’re moving on from Lincoln, we’re moving right on up

    The Middle School’s, waiting and we’re growing up.

     

    Goodbye to 2 straight lines, goodbye to recess

    Hello to lockers, and walking with my friends

    Goodbye to free draw, and messy desks

    Every inch of us is ready, from the bottom to the top!

     

    Refrain:

    You know my momma she told me one day I’d be on my own

    And with my friends by my side I just know I won’t be alone

    You know I won’t forget lessons I learned in el’mentary days,

    But now I’m older and ready to move in my own unique ways.

     

    Because you know it’s all about the lockers, ‘bout the lockers, no recess

    It’s all about the lockers, ‘bout the lockers, no recess

    It’s all about the lockers, ‘bout the lockers, no recess

    It’s all about the lockers, ‘bout the lockers

     

    I got my backpack…

    Goodbye to Lincoln, we’re not comin’ back...

    Let’s make these memories last, We’re here to tell ya,

    Every inch of us is ready from the bottom to the top!

     

    Refrain

    You know my momma she told me one day I’d be on my own

    And with my friends by my side I just know I won’t be alone

    You know I won’t forget lessons I learned in el’mentary days,

    But now I’m older and ready to move in my own unique ways.

     

    Because you know it’s all about the lockers, ‘bout the lockers, no recess

    It’s all about the lockers, ‘bout the lockers, no recess

    It’s all about the lockers, ‘bout the lockers, no recess

    It’s all about the lockers, ‘bout the lockers

     

    Because you know it’s all about the lockers, ‘bout the lockers, no recess

    It’s all about the lockers, ‘bout the lockers, no recess

    It’s all about the lockers, ‘bout the lockers, no recess

    It’s all about the lockers, ‘bout the lockers

     

    Because you know it’s

        all about the lockers…

     

    Because you know it’s

        all about the lockers…

    You know my momma she told me one day I’d be on my own...
