So sue me if I crave just a bit of stability
But I hate when I fall and I know that there's nothing to catch me
I work hard for my money I won't let my time just go to waste
I wanna settle down, find a new hometown
But I just need to see more of this place
So get your next degree and you'll be fine
Waste all of your money wasting all that time
Spent with someone else you didn't know was mine
Oh I hate to let you down like this
Oh I hate to let you down like this
I've always been on my own I'm so independent
An only child alone in the world and having to face it
I went so far put all the work in just for it to shatter
It's like broken clay always so cliché
But I wish I could say that it didn't matter
So get your next degree and you'll be fine
Waste all of your money wasting all that time
Spent with someone else you didn't know was mine
Oh I hate to let you down like this
Oh I hate to let you down like this
Oh I never stay out late
I fall in love on the first date
And I wonder why they always run away
Oh I'm trying to succeed
Never succumbing to the greed
I just wanna live inside of my fantasies
Oh I'm living inside my dreams
So get your next degree and you'll be fine
Waste all of your money wasting all that time
Spent with someone else you didn't know was mine
Oh I hate to let you down like this
Oh I hate to let you down like this
Oh I hate to let you down at all
