Lyrics

We Play Rock and Roll

I used to go to college
I used to be pre-med
Doctors and professors
Never heard a word they said
I’d cheat on my exams
I’d plagiarize reports
I had to study grammar
But I never knew what for
We play rock and roll
We play rock and roll
We play rock and roll
Cause we can’t do anything else
No, we can’t do anything else

Go to work at the skanky bank
I’m head embezzler
People give me money all day
I stick it in my shirt
But they make you get up so early
And that’s why I get tired
Get high and fall asleep at lunch
By two o’clock I’m fired
Yeah, by two o’clock I’m fired
We play rock and roll
We play rock and roll
We play rock and roll
Cause we can’t do anything else
No, we can’t do anything else

We really like achievements
We’d like to do our part
We could accomplish something
If we knew where to start
It’s true, so true

I don’t want to work
Don’t want to get a job
Don’t wanna do anything
But be a lazy slob
Cause I think I’m entitled
To everything I want
The world owes me a living
When will it pay up
Yeah, when will it pay up?
