Well I had a little trouble with my timetable
So I went on down to see my guidance counsellor
He told me that, I'd never make a dime, If I didn't wise up and make up my mind
"Now sit down son, and let me tell you a tale, about a boy who was smart, but he had to
fail, Well he got good grades, and he got into pot, now he's always high and his grades
are not"
He said to me, "Son, whatcha' gonna be?"
I said, "I'm gonna be a rock star, wait and see"
He said, "Now, son, You're going nowhere fast"
So I looked him in the face and said "KISS MY ASS!"

You're gonna make minimum wage and you aint gonna go to college
You're gonna make minimum wage and you aint gonna go to college

He said "Now boy, tell me seriously"
I said "Something in radio, maybe even TV"
He looked at me like I was something to see, and said "You'd be better off working
at KFC"
I said "I don't like the chicken, and I don't like you"
He said "Now, son, tell me something new...
I've seen a thousand kids, and they're all the same, they like rock music and they dream
of fame, they wanna play their music, and play it loud, well I'll tell ya now, get your
head outta the cloud"
He said "you look away cuz you know it's true"
I said "No matter what, I'm better off than YOU!"

You're gonna make minimum wage and you aint gonna go to college
You're gonna make minimum wage and you aint gonna go to college

You're gonna make minimum wage and you aint gonna go to college
You're gonna make minimum wage and you aint gonna go to college

You're gonna make minimum wage and you aint gonna go to college
You're gonna make minimum wage and you aint gonna go to college
