When I moved to brandon I expected to play
But was then asked to manage...boy was that gay
It was too late to leave, I was locked into school
I showed up to class and hoped things would be cool
Now classes were easy, you could say they were a joke
But outside of school I was Seriously BROKE
I went on the hunt to get some cash flow
Where I wound up serving tables at a joint called Echo
The weeks turned to months and things weren't so bad
Even Christmas was saved by my buddy T-brad
During the night it was parties and drinking
I met some great girls, and a few "WHAT WAS I THINKING?!" 's
I finished my first year and school had gone swell
Nothing lower than a "B" with a few "A's" as well
Now year one 's almost over, and surprise, I'm still here
Gonna play college basketball for the first time next year
So what can I say about this small unknown town
Well for starters the people, best ones around
If you threw the girls in a pageant, they'd all tie for 1st
And aside from their beauty, they're all down to earth
The days still pass by, and the first year is through
So I wait to find out the mysteries of year two
