sitting here once again
numbers running through my brain
thinking
will i fail again

will i be a different person
with a maths degree
no i won,t
i,ll still be me

maybe i,ll be more clever
but will anybody see
that i,m a little bit more cleverer
if  i,ve got a maths degree

i guess what i,m saying
is i was happy with before
and if it was,nt for my advisor
i would,nt have walked through your door

its surprising how the dole
can make us do these actions
by telling us if we don,t
they,ll bury us with sanctions

i actually dream at night
quite often you may know
of walking in the dole
and telling her where to go

so let me win the lottery
i,m praying to my preacher
let me win a mill or two
so i can be the teacher
