Average Student - Oliver Nelson

I’m so broke

Yeah, I’ve got bills up to my ears, I’ve started to smoke

Drinkin' cheap wine and shitty beers

I’m sayin' it’s jokes

But really I’m holdin' back the tears and debating my career

Maybe I should stop right here

'Cause nobody knows that I do this

Sometimes I just lose it

Don’t know what I’m doing

And I do not know why I do this

I’m fine then I’m clueless

Just your average student that’s tryna find her way

'Cause all the doors they keep on closing and I’m not okay

It’s like nothing I do will keep them open

And I want to go away on a permanent holiday for at least 3−6-5 days

3−6-5, 3−6-5, 3−6-5, I’m just your average student

3−6-5, 3−6-5, 3−6-5, I don’t know what I’m doing

I wanna go to Tahiti so I can walk along the bach in a yellow bikini

But it all seems so out of reach cos I can’t afford a take out

So how can I afford a flight?

I keep hoping that this ain’t ral but it keeps me up every night

I don’t sleep til the morning which means I’ll be a grumpy bitch all day

And not do much talkin'

But my mind is so awake, I said my mind is so awake

And the funny thing is that

Nobody knows that I do this

Sometimes I can’t move it

Don’t know what I’m doing

And I don’t know why I do this

I’m young and so stupid

Just your average student that’s tryna find her way

'Cause all the doors they keep on closing and I’m not okay

It’s like nothing I do will keep them open

And I want to go away on a permanent holiday for at least 3−6-5 days

3−6-5, 3−6-5, 3−6-5, I’m just your average student

3−6-5, 3−6-5, 3−6-5, I don’t know what I’m doing

I never know what to say (I don’t)

I wish I had my own car in my driveway

Maybe a Mustang or a bright blue Chevrolet (Imagine that)

And I want to go away for at least 3−6-5 days

I’m tryna find my way

'Cause all the doors they keep on closing and I’m not okay

It’s like nothing I do will keep them open

And I want to go away on a permanent holiday for at least 3−6-5 days

3−6-5, 3−6-5, 3−6-5, I’m just your average student

3−6-5, 3−6-5, 3−6-5, I don’t know what I’m doing
