[edit] Lyrics
{Children talking}
STRONG BAD: {talking} Okay, settle down, class. Settle down, uh, we gotta get this right, or nobody gets any chocolate milk, for the rest of th— of the term. I will be accompanied by Mr. Cheaterson on the piano, so would everyone please rise for the presentation of our national colors.
{piano plays}
{whispered} Shh! Hey, you zip it! Jerome! Jerome! Show some respect! Spit that gum out! Shut up! I'm gonna freakin' hit— {piano becomes more up-tempo}
Oh, yeah! Oh, I like that!
KIDS AND STRONG BAD: {singing}
Come to the place where tropical breezes blow.
Come to the coolest place I know.
ONE KID:
The pe-
STRONG BAD:
The people are so great,
But really there's only me,
And that means I'm so great,
And also there's the Cheat.
KIDS AND STRONG BAD:
Oh there's the Cheat
In the place where the tropical breezes blow
The Cheat in the coolest place I know
STRONG BAD:
And the ones are always cold,
And the parties last all night,
And there's probably lots of chocolate,
And Population: Tire
KIDS AND STRONG BAD:
Population... tiiiire.
STRONG BAD: {talking} That was pretty good. I'll tell you what: you guys can get low fat, sugar-free, chocolate skim milk from now on.
KIDS: Aww, man! I wanted milk!
STRONG BAD: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Go... go back to class.

[edit] Remarks
- The "children" at the beginning sound like the The Brothers Chaps' normal speaking voices. Then during and after the song, they sound like small children.
- At the end you can hear a small bit of canned laughter.
[edit] Inside References
- The name "Jerome" is in reference to anything, where Homestar fills in and acts as if he's teaching a class. He refers to the person who sent the email as "Jerome".
- This is another instance of Names ending in -erson.
