I Wish I Could Go Back To College Lyrics

    KATE MONSTER
    I wish I could go back to college.
    Life was so simple back then.

    NICKY
    What would I give to go back and live in a dorm with a meal plan again!

    PRINCETON
    I wish I could go back to college.
    In college you know who you are.
    You sit in the quad, and think, "Oh my God!
    I am totally gonna go far!"

    ALL
    How do I go back to college?
    I don't know who I am anymore!

    PRINCETON
    I wanna go back to my room and find a message in dry-erase pen on the door!
    Ohhh...
    I wish I could just drop a class...

    NICKY
    Or get into a play...

    KATE MONSTER
    Or change my major...

    PRINCETON
    Or fuck my T.A.

    ALL
    I need an academic advisor to point the way!
    We could be...
    Sitting in the computer lab,
    4 A.M. before the final paper is due,
    Cursing the world 'cause I didn't start sooner,
    And seeing the rest of the class there, too!

    PRINCETON
    I wish I could go back to college!

    ALL
    How do I go back to college?!
    AHHHH...

    PRINCETON
    I wish I had taken more pictures.

    NICKY
    But if I were to go back to college,
    Think what a loser I'd be-
    I'd walk through the quad,
    And think "Oh my God..."

    ALL
    "These kids are so much younger than me."
