Clases de rock ′n' roll
Clases de rock ′n' roll

El profesor en medio de la calle (lle-lle)
Va explicando a los alumnos la lección (lle-lle-lle)
Hay un tal Elvis que no pierde detalle (lle-lle)
Y un tal Keith Richards con pinta de empollón
Un guitarrista llamado Martín Guille (lle-lle)
Aprueba el curso sin dificultad (lle-lle-lle)
Y a un tal Mick Jagger le dicen que no chille (lle-lle)
Que es un pesado, que deje de cantar

Fundamentales en tu educación
No has de faltar
A clases de rock 'n′ roll

Las partituras no hay Cristo que las halle (lle-lle)
Están perdidas en medio del follón (lle-lle-lle)
Del alboroto que forman los chavales (lle-lle-lle)
Sale Loquillo a dar un toque de atención

Lle-lle-lle-lle
Lle-lle-lle
Lle-lle-lle-lle

Clases de rock ′n' roll
Clases de rock ′n' roll

Cantan los Beatles "She loves you, yeah" (yeah, lle-lle-lle)
Y la pandilla toma apuntes sin parar (sin parar)
Ahí va Chuck Berry, le piden que no ensaye (ye-ye)
Que a todo el mundo le come la moral

Fundamentales en tu formación
No has de faltar
No has de olvidar
Siempre has de dar
Tus clases de rock ′n' roll

Lle-lle-lle-lle
Lle-lle-lle-lle-lle-lle-lle
Lle-lle-lle-lle
Lle-lle-lle
