letra de student song - ben caplan

[verse 1]
well my feet are tired and my back is sore
and my body’s aching and my hands are raw
and my eyes are drowsy and my mouth is dry
and i feel so alive that i could almost die
‘cos my pockets are draughty from the rent so steep
and my arms are shaking from the lack of sleep
and my mind is melting as my blisters burst
but my grin is endless ‘cos it could be worse

[chorus]
so i drop to my knees and give thanks to the lord
for the rising tuition i can barely afford
i’m so happy to live in the land of the free
free to pay high tuition so i can succeed

[verse 2]
i got a class in the morning, i gotta study at noon
i gotta work in the evening and an essay due soon
i got a test on the morrow and a quiz in an hour
and a bill overdue for the phone and the power
i got a girl who’s upset – yeah, she thinks i’m a jerk
‘cos i cancelled our plans to get called into work
and my, my heart is breaking as i face my curse
but my grin is endless ‘cos it could be worse
[chorus]
so i drop to my knees and give thanks to the lord
for the rising tuition i can barely afford
i’m so happy to live in the land of the free
free to pay high tuition so i can succeed

[verse 3]
so i ride my bike ride right up to my door
i will climb up the stairs and look forward to more
‘cos the clock in the kitchen rads a quarter to three
now tomorrow is today in the land of the free
so i climb in my bed and try to forget
that come summer, i’ll work three jobs just to pay down my debt
but then, thank god i’m no slave; i’ll remember that first
and my grin will be endless ‘cos it could be worse

[chorus]
and i will drop to my knees and give thanks to the lord
for the rising tuition i can barely afford
i’m so happy to live in the land of the free
free to pay high tuition so i can succeed
