Wally Pleasant

My problems all started on commencement day
When people started asking me what my plans were I didn’t know what to say.
I thought about hanging out in Europe or traveling around the states,
But my car was total junk and I couldn’t afford airline rates.
So I got down on my knees and prayed and sent out resumes cause I needed a job.

Well, I was just looking for an easy, high paying, career,
But I could wall paper my bedroom with the rejection letters I got this year
Because the entry level job picture just ain’t what it ought to be,
But at least I can blame all my problems on the economy.

I got the postgraduate, over educated, out of work blues.

Well, 1 and 1 is 2. 2 and 2 is 4. 28 squared is 784!
I know a lot of useless facts that I’ll never even use,
When I’m not at the MECS office, I’m at job interviews.

I got the postgraduate, over educated, out of work blues.

I should of joined the Army instead of taking that SAT test
Because my BA degree is a bunch of BS.
And I wish I worked in a factory, I wish I knew how to weld stuff.
I should have gone to Botech and got a job where I don’t need to know stuff,
Like the 18th theory of economics, or the houses of Croy.

I once wrote a 35 pages paper about the significance of the United States having a service based economy and now I’m unemployed. I’m unemployed.

I got the postgraduate, over educated, out of work blues.
I got the postgraduate, over educated, out of work blues.
One more time for everyone whose got a masters degree!
I got the postgraduate, over educated, out of work blues.
