Lyrics

English Degree... English Degree... English Degree... English Degree

I went to a party to chill out

The apartment is decently pretty, I'm checking out

When I saw a picture frame on the shelf

It's an English Degree

Oh Michael, I wonder how you are now

What do you do for a living?

Was it tough to get a job

All the books that you read about compassion with passion

Was it worth the debt and doubt?


All the arts and humanities the rich don't care about

Doesn't mean they are no use at all

It's better off a rebel than a heartless robot

Got no blood on your hands, nothing weighs on your conscience

You can sleep in peace at the night fall

It's better off a penniless fool than a soul sucking tool


I woke up early this day in 2012

Rushing to the basement of Dumbach hall

Professor had a cynical sense of humor

I remember the joke he tried to tell


I hope what I'm about to say is a wake up call

To you all the English majors having second thoughts

If you stick to your decision here, there's not gonna be any job

Waiting in the real world


Or you can be like me

Take a decade of your life to get a PhD

Only to be stuffed in a tiny office

Like sardine fish

That's the price you pay to know


All the arts and humanities the rich don't care about

Doesn't mean they are no use at all

It's better off a rebel than a heartless robot

Got no blood on your hands, nothing weight on your conscience

You can sleep in peace at the night fall

It's better off a fool than a soul sucking tool


Ooooo, ooooo, ooooo, oooooooo


Oh an English Degree

The paper that doesn't pay

By the end of the day

You, you hope it's all worth it


Oh an English Degree

The paper that doesn't pay

By the end of the day

You hope it's all worth it
