i wish i could go back to college

these are the lyrics from the song "i wish i could go back to college" from the musical avenue q. i just wanted to share them with everyone early because my sister, who's only a junior in college, says she already does feel remorse and stuff about college. so anyway, here's this to make you think. (this thoughtful moment brought to you by puc)

I wish I could go back to college.
Life was so simple back then.
What would I give to go back and live
in a dorm with a meal plan again!

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!"

How do I go back to college?
I don't know who I am anymore!
I wanna go back to my room
and find a message in dry-erase pen on the door!

I wish I could just drop a class...
Or get into a play...
Or change my major...
Or fuck my T.A.

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!

I wish I could go back to college!
How do I go back to college?!
I wish I had taken more pictures.

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