College Kids

Someone please save us,
us college kids!
What my parents told me
is what i did.
They said go to school and
be a college kid,
but in the end
I questioned why I did.

I’m poor, I’m starving, I’m flat broke
I’ve got no cash to spend.
Sell all my books for front row tickets
to Dave Matthews Band.
My girlfriend’s at another school;
I know this year will test her.
I called, found out she had three other boyfriends last semester!

And that’s why I say
Oh no! Not for me, not for me!
Call it torture, call it university.
No! Arts and crafts is all I need.
I’ll take calligraphy and
then I’ll make a fake degree.

Eighty grand later I found out
that all that I had learned
is that you should show up to
take your finals and your midterms.
The party scene is kinda mean
I think it’s sick and twisted
the navy showed up at my dorm
and clamed that I enlisted

Don’t get excited she’ll say “no”
without a doubt you see.
And I’ve decided college girls
just won’t go out with me.
They make me nervous and they
always catch me off my guard.
Like cell phone service
I drop out cause college is too hard

It’s time to call my father,
’cause it’s his alma mater.
Good grades arn’t what they seem.
I think he knows the dean.
It’s time to call my father ,
’cause it’s his alma mater.
He said he’s proud of me,
but college always was his dream,
and I would always say it’s not for me.
