(Buying Time)

Going to school to be a journalist
But that quickly lost my interest
My intro class made me hate it
I don't know where I'm going
Will I ever make it?
The choices are in front of me
But I can't choose
Too much pressure from the family
I'm sick and tired of them asking.

CHORUS:
"What are you gonna do
With the rest of your life?"
I don't know!
Stop bugging me!
I'm sure I'll probably
Figure it out eventually!
Maybe... Hopefully!
What am I gonna do?
I can't make up my mind!
I just figure college
Will buy me some time
Before I have to decide!

Before I move away from home
Before I'm out on my own
Before I'm thrusted into the work force
Before I have to pay the bills
I guess I should make a decision
But I can't still.
It's kinda scary knowing
Soon I'll have to act like an adult
I'm really not making an effort
At conclusion time I bolt
But I'm sick and tired of everybody asking.

CHORUS:
"What are you gonna do
With the rest of your life?"
I don't know!
Stop bugging me!
I'm sure I'll probably
Figure it out eventually!
Maybe... Hopefully!
What am I gonna do?
I can't make up my mind!
I just figure college
Will buy me some time
Before I have to decide!

College!
Four years, of procrastination!
Screw figuring my career!
I just wanna have fun!

CHORUS:
"What are you gonna do
With the rest of your life?"
I don't know!
Stop bugging me!
I'm sure I'll probably
Figure it out eventually!
Maybe... Hopefully!
What am I gonna do?
I can't make up my mind!
I just figure college
Will buy me some time
Before I have to decide!

College will buy me some time
Before I have to decide
