Kanye West - School Spirit (Skit 1) Lyrics

Artist: Kanye West

Album: The College Dropout

  • Songwriters: Kanye Omari West

{Now beat that
And your mother sayin' "Go to college"
So you finish college and its wonderful
You feel so good and after all the partyin' and crazin'
And don't forget about that drug habit
You picked up at school being around your peers
Hey, now you'll get that 25 thou, job a year and
You'll spend all your money on crack cocaine
But it'll be you're your money
No more borrowin' from mom, for my high}

{So now you get your degree tattooed on your back
Your so excited about it
If you continue to work at the gap, after several interviews
Oh my God, you'll come in at an entry level position
And when you do that, if you kiss enough ass
You'll move up to the next level
Which is being a secretary's secretary}

{And boy is that's great, you get to take messages for the secretary
Who never went to college
She's actually the boss's niece, so now your a part of the family}

{You know what college does for you?
It makes you really smart man
All you kids want to talk in the back of the class not me
I listened, okay}

{I was a hall monitor, this was meant to be
Know, how many classes I took
Extra classes, extra classes
No, I've never had sex but you know what
My degree keeps me satisfied}

{When a lady walks to me say, "Hey, you know what's sexy?"
I say, "No, I don't know what it is, but I bet
I can add up all the change in your purse very fast"}
