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 [Verse 1] 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: [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 [Verse 2] Eighty grand later, I found out that all that I had learned Was that you should show up to take your finals and your mid-terms The party scene is kind of mean. I think it's sick and twisted The Navy showed up at my door and claimed that I enlisted [Chorus] [Bridge] Don't get excited. She'll say "no" without a doubt, you see 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 cuz college is too hard It's time to call my father Cuz 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 Cuz it's his alma mater But college always was his dream And I would always say, "It's not for me." [Chorus] 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 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
