歌詞: Barenaked Ladies. Gordon. Grade 9.

I found my locker and I found my classes
Lost my lunch and I broke my glasses
That guy is huge! That girl is wailing!
First day of school and I'm already failing

This is me in grade nine baby, this is me in grade nine
This is me in grade nine
This is me in grade nine baby, this is me in grade nine

I got a blue and red Adidas bag and a humongous binder
I'm trying my best not to look like a minor niner
I went out for the football team to prove that I'm a man
I guess I shouldn't tell them that I like Duran Duran, whoa

This is me in grade nine baby, yeah, this is me in grade nine
This is me in grade nine
This is me in grade nine baby, this is me in grade nine

Well half my friends are crazy and the others are depressed
None of them can help me study for my math test
I got into the classroom and my knowledge was gone
I guess I should've studied instead of watching Wrath Of Khan

This is me in grade nine baby, this is me in grade nine
This is me in grade nine
This is me in grade nine baby, this is me in grade nine

They called me chicken legs, they called me four eyes
They called me fatso, they called me buckwheat
They called me Eddie

This is me in grade nine baby, yeah, this is me in grade nine
This is me in grade nine
This is me in grade nine baby, this is me in grade nine

I got a red leather tie and pair of Rugger pants
I put them on and I went to the high school dance
But dad said I had to be home by eleven
Aw, man I'm gonna miss Stairway to Heaven

This is me in grade nine baby, this is me in grade nine
This is me in grade nine
This is me in grade nine baby, this is me in grade nine
This is me

This is me in grade nine baby, yeah, this is me in grade nine
This is me in grade nine
This is me in grade nine baby, this is me in grade nine

This is me in grade nine baby, yeah, this is me in grade nine
This is me in grade nine
This is me in grade nine baby, this is me in grade nine
