“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 mattews band
my girlfriend’s @ 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...

chorus
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 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 @ my dorm and claimed that i enlisted
and that’s why i say...

chorus
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” w/out a doubt you see
and i’ve decided college girls just won’t go out w/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 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

chorus
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 question why i did

do what will make you happy
do what you feel is right
only but one thing matters
learn how to live your life

do what will make God happy
do what you feel is right
only but one thing matters
learn how to live your life
