I have no motivation, I don't even wanna try
What's after graduating? Work hard, retire and die
I don't wanna live that life, rather drop out than get by
Working a mediocre, average fucking nine-to-five
And I know it's what my parents want from me, but I don't
So I won't go get that business degree, I'm sorry, mom
That I'm a deadbeat, the failure of the family, but
I didn't ask to be here, so just leave me alone
(I told you not to go out last night)
My apologies that I don't wanna be what you want me to be
I'm sorry
I'm not a prodigy, rarely got good grades, no A's or B's
Yeah, I'm hardly
Getting by on a daily basis, but I got a dream, so I gotta chase it
Never gonna be who they want to see
All my life, I know I'll be saying
That I know exactly what my parents want, but I don't
So I won't go get that business degree, I'm sorry, mom
That I'm a deadbeat, the failure of the family, but
I didn't ask to be here, so just leave me alone
(Now get out of my sight, you little—)
I'm a delusional freak who's chasing made-up dreams
Most people give up at twelve, but now I'm twenty-three
I'm from another planet, they'll never understand it
Everyone's getting degrees while I still have nothing planned out
And I know exactly what my parents want, but I don't
So I won't go get that business degree, I'm sorry, mom
That I'm a deadbeat (I'm sorry, mom), the failure of the family, but (so sorry, mom)
I didn't ask to be here (I'm sorry, mom), so just leave me alone (I'm sorry, mom)
