I can’t wait till class is over
And my homework is all done.
I can’t wait until my eyes are
No more bothered by the sun.
I can’t wait ‘till it’s the weekend
Oh I’ll push things to the brink,
And if I remember what I’ve done,
Well that’s a waste I think.

I can’t wait until I graduate
So I can get a job,
Waste away my nine-to-fives
And start livin’ like a slob.
I can’t wait till I get married
So that I can hate my wife
And drink away my sorrows
For the rest of my dull life.

Oh boy! Let’s have some children
(I hope that they’ll look up to me)!
I’ll let them gorge on fast-food dinners
While staring blankly at the screen.
So then they turn to teenagers
And we fight all **** day.
They tell me they don’t love me,
Couldn’t care less what I say.

I can’t wait till I get older –
Then I’ll have my fun!
I’ll eat and sleep and **** myself
Like life’s a game I’ve won.
And when I’m on my deathbed
I’ll smile (if I can),
I won’t regret a single thing:
A proud American.
