I could be a business man, sign here on the dotted line Maybe that's a perfect plan but it isn't mine 'Cause I don't have time for chasing carrots on a stick When I think of wearing suits to work, it really makes me sick I don't wanna go to college I don't wanna do things that require a degree That seems like death to me I don't wanna be in college I don't wanna be another puppet of demand I hope you understand That I don't wanna go to college I could be the CEO of a great big company But deep down in my heart I know that it's not for me Because my destiny simply cannot be bought or sold Or forced into the mold that the world shoves down my throat I don't wanna go to college I don't wanna do things that require a degree That seems like death to me I don't wanna be in college I don't wanna be another puppet of demand I hope you understand That I don't wanna go to college Oh no, I don't wanna take what they wanna give I don't want the life they want me to live I don't even know what I wanna do I just know I don't wanna be like you, no I don't wanna go to college I don't wanna do things that require a degree That seems like death to me, yeah I don't wanna be in college I don't wanna be another puppet of demand I hope you understand That I don't wanna go to college No, I don't wanna go to college No, I don't wanna go to college
