Lyrics

I owe $35 to the library
At Humboldt State University
But I dropped out 15 years ago
So I never paid
And I'm still not gonna
I never got my report card
But I didn't go to class
And I didn't work hard
So I didn't wanna know
How bad I did
But I know I never made
The Dean's List
And college is a waste of time
If you wanna baker or a candlestick maker
You still have to wait in line
At the bank drive-through
And the train tracks too
Behind people like me
With no degree
Cus I know the conductor and he knows me
You might have a nicer car
But I've travelled pretty far
And I have have is an old guitar
Oh, 40 bucks for a bag of weed
In the summer, 1993
$40 is all I have
And it isn't mine
It belongs to my parents
Oh, 500 points for a roll of cookie dough
In the cafeteria they got sloppy joe's
And the sloppy joes cost 3 points
I won't eat in the spring
But hey, cookie dough
And college is a waste of time
If you wanna be a diver or a big rig driver
You still have to go to the store
Share the road with a wide load
Who's taking up all three lanes
And you can't get around it
Its a big rig
And the driver hasn't slept in three whole days
But he knows one thing, and that's free ways
He's got a Gatorade bottle
Where he goes pee
And you're behind him with
Your college degree
I owe $35 to the library
At Humboldt State University
But I dropped out 16 years ago
So I never paid
And I'm still not gonna
