My Student Loans

TUNE: THE GIRL THAT I MARRY

I live in my dad's basement pad
Cause now I'm no longer an undergrad
McDonalds pays my way
To so many luxurious things I can't say.
My student loans are a piece of cake
They take three-quarters of what I make
Lest I take off
Or I'm laid off
Only thirty years more and they're paid off
And then I can marry
No reason to tarry
There'll be.

So Canadian kids will be poor or dumb
Or flee to countries, and there are some
Like Germany, Denmark and Spain
and Sweden and Cuba and Ireland so sane
Where tuition is free just as it should be
If they can do it, then why can't we?
It's a given
While they're livin'
That they can't make their way when debt-driven
A lousy beginnings
What student loan living
Will be.
