The Ineffectual Intellectual

I'm a kid from Oklahoma
Only wanted a diploma
I completed registration
For my four year education

Then off I went to college
Was seeking higher knowledge
I was taught by all these scholars
Who were making all these dollars

Didn't make a lot of buddies
Was too busy with my studies
Never racked up any tardies
And avoided all the parties

When graduating I was glad
But there were no jobs to be had
Now I'm living back at home
Can't pay off my student loan

My parents are so disgusted
Say the system can't be trusted
Became an ineffectual
Out of work intellectual
