lyrics

I was so young just having fun
Could give a shit 'bout education
I tried to excel it didn't go well
I didn't have no motivation
Me and my friends were idiots
Tried to pretend that we weren't kids
We should have never left the basement
But all our brains went to our heads
We walked away from our own threads
We really thought that we could make it
I guess I might enroll in college
But it's all down hill from Harvard
Ya it's all down hill from here
Started out just fine but now
It's just a waste of time ya know
It's all down hill from here
I'm growing up still make shit up
Can't keep from all this affectation
I'm a genius I'm so egregious
I really have no explanation
But all my brains went to my head
I can't believe the shit I've said
I never thought that I would sing this
I'm burning out from my success
I need a break I need a rest
Bachelor's degree I'll get in English
The rivers run back to the well
So I say "Oh well"
'Cause I don't give a shit about it
But it's all down hill from Harvard
Ya it's all down hill from here
Started out just fine but now
It's just a waste of time ya know
It's all down hill from here
( Guitar )
I wish I had a soul to sell
I'd kick right through the gates of hell
And run right back into that well
So I say "Oh well"
'Cause I don't give a shit about
It's all down hill from Harvard
Ya it's all down hill from here
Started out just fine but now
It's just a waste of time ya know
It's all down hill from here
Well it's all down hill from Harvard
Ya it's all down hill from here
Started out just fine but now
It's just a waste of time ya know
It's all down hill from here
