College


This is your year to leave the nest Your mother cries, Your father cries, Wishing you all the best This is the year you must look after your own health Time to take the claws out and fend for yourself It's time to take out those student loans, You may not pay off 'til you're full-grown To take responsibility for your own life, And take off in a keen flight Working hard, assignments may take all night It will be worth it because your future is bright It's your time to work hard and prove who you are, Whether you want to be a doctor, artist, or a movie star Know the future will have bumpy roads But you must march past those and go Go GO At the end your dreams will be no more But your story for people to know
