No Job Blues

Million dollar college fees Money I don’t have Money I never wanted I wonder how they’re going to get it now Could have taught myself all these things For free no less But that doesn’t afford a degree Nothing I can put on the resume Who here’s the most qualified? The biggest dickhead Why? Because he has the most confidence Sucks himself off every night Duh I’d kill myself but that would f--k my parents After all they co-signed, right? I’ll put myself out there as much as I can then For every penny I’m f--king worth But I don’t want a goddamn penny I don’t want a goddamn thing This degree’s for them, it’s not for me It’s so I can get out of their f--king house It’s so I can leave them alone like they so wish and beg It’s so I’ll never have to come crawling back for money It’s so I can eat my own food, live under my own roof Sleep in my own clothes, die in my own bed Until then I’m selling every company something that’s already dead Think they’re buying?!
