School Spirit Skit 2

You keep it going man, you keep those books rolling,

You pick up those books your going to read

And not remember and you roll man.

You get that a sociate degree, okay,

Then you get your bachelors, then you get your masters

Then you get your master's masters,

Then you get your doctron,

You go man, then when everybody says quit

You show them those degree man, when

Everybody says hey, your not working,

Your not making in money,

You say look at my degrees and you look at my life,

Yeah i'm 52, so what, hate all you want,

But i'm smart, i'm so smart, and i'm in school,

And these guys are out here making

Money all these ways, and i'm spended mine to be smart.

You know why?

Because when i die, buddy, you know

What going to keep me warm, that right, those degrees
