Foreign Exchange Student

 

It's my first time doing foreign exchange,

I'll be at a German school for two weeks,

But in German I got poor speaking range

I don't know how I'll survive with these geeks.

 

I'll be at a German school for two weeks,

It's my first class and I am struggling,

I don't know how I'll survive with these geeks

They're messing around and they're juggling.

 

It's my first class and I am struggling,

They speak to me like I know good German,

They're messing around and they're juggling

So does my class teacher, Mr Herman.

 

They speak to me like I know good German,

Very often they put me on the spot,

So does my class teacher, Mr Herman

Sometimes I say things that tickles the lot.

 

Very often they put me on the spot,

It is embarrassing, why did I come?

Sometimes I say things that tickles the lot,

My ruby slippers, I want to go home.

 

It is embarrassing, why did I come?

But in German I got poor speaking range,

My ruby slippers, I want to go home,

It's my first time doing foreign exchange.
