Lyrics for School Spirit Skit 2

You keep it going man, you keep those books rolling You pick up those books you're going to read And not remember, and you roll man You get that associate's degree, okay Then you get your bachelor's, then you get your master's Then you get your master's masters Then you get your doctorate You go man, and then when everybody says quit You show them those degrees man When everybody says, "hey, you're not working "You're not making any 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 These guys are out here, huh Making money all these ways, and I'm spending mine to be smart You know why? Because when I die, buddy You know what's gonna keep me warm? That's right, those degrees
