College Kids
Lyrics
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 Matthew's 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
80 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 claimed that I enlisted
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
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 dropped out 'cause college is to hard
It's time to call my father
'Cause it's his Alma mater
Good grades aren't what they seem
I think he knows the dean
It's time to call my father
'Cause it's his Alma mater
He says he's proud of me
But college always was his dream
And I would always say it's not for me
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
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
Do what will make you happy (someone, please save us)
Do what you feel is right (us college kids)
Only but one thing matters (what my parents told me)
Learn how to live your life (is what I did)
Do what will make God happy (they said go to school and)
Do what you feel is right (be a college kid)
Only but one thing matters (but in the end)
Learn how to live your life
