<p>Asher Roth — I Love College lyrics</p>

<p>(Intro)
I’m nice right now
I, I feel good
If you have a drink
Would you please put it in the air</p>

<p>(Chorus)
That party lastnight was awfully crazy
I wish we taped it
I danced my ass off and had this one girl completly naked
Drink my beer and smoke my weed
But my good friends is all I need
Pass out at 3 wake up at 10
Go out to eat then do it again</p>

<p>(Verse one)
I wanna go to college for the rest of my life
Sip bankers club and drink miller lite
On thirsty thursday and tuesday night ice
And I can get pizza a dollar a slice
So fill up my cup
Lets get ****ed up
I’m next on the table
Who want what
I am champion at beer pong
Allen iverson hakeem alajuan
Don’t even bounce, not in my house
Better hope you make it
Otherwise you naked</p>

<p>Time isn’t wasted when you’re getting wasted
Woke up today and all I could say is</p>

<p>(Chorus)
That party lastnight was awfully crazy
I wish we taped it
I danced my ass off and had this one girl completly naked
Drink my beer and smoke my weed
But my good friends is all I need
Pass out at 3 wake up at 10
Go out to eat then do it again</p>

<p>(Bridge part)
Man I love college
And I love drinkin
I love women
I love college</p>

<p>(Verse two)
I can’t tell you what I learned from school
But I could tell you a story or two
Um yea of course I learned some rules
Like don’t pass out with your shoes on
And don’t leave the house till the booze gone
And don’t have sex if she’s too gone
When it comes to condoms put two on
Then tomorrow night find a new joint
Hold the beer bong
Nothing wrong with some fun
Even if we did get a little just too drunk</p>

<p>Time isn’t wasted when you’re getting wasted
Woke up today and all I could say is</p>

<p>(Chorus)
That party lastnight was awfully crazy
I wish we taped it
I danced my ass off and had this one girl completly naked
Drink my beer and smoke my weed
But my good friends is all I need
Pass out at 3 wake up at 10
Go out to eat then do it again</p>

<p>(Bridge part)
Man I love college
And I love drinkin
I love women
I love college</p>

<p>Now if everybody would please
Put their drink as high as they can
As high as they can
And repeat after me
Yea
That party lastnight
Man I love collge
I love it
That party lastnight
Goodnight everybody I gotta head back to class for a little bit</p>

<p>(Chorus in background)</p>

<p>But after that
You know what’s goin down
My house and 3 kegs
See you there
You’re all invited
Bring your friends
Bring your mom</p>

<p>Do I really have to graduate
Or can I just stay here the rest of my life</p>

<p>That is disgusting.</p>

3

<p>Sigh. My son went to a HIGH SCHOOL dance the other night and was disgusted. He said, “Mom, they didn’t dance at all - it was all grinding! Is college going to be like that?” He was so disappointed. He just wanted to dance!</p>

4

<p>arg. Thanks for THAT, shrinkrap!</p>

5

<p>I (unfortunately) had the pleasure of hearing that song the other day while I was driving. I was so annoyed I pulled over and ranted a bit to my friend who was driving with me :D</p>

6

<p>Sounds like a song that could have been around when I was in college. Those '60s and '70’s songs were no better.</p>

7

<p>I actually think it’s a catchy tune, and the artist has been well educated (about what will sell); I just mourn the time and money wasted by the kids who will consider this their “anthem”.</p>

8

<p>It’s always going to be something. Remember “Sex and Drugs and Rock & Roll”?</p>

9

<p>Sorry, I prefer to listen to good music (i.e. not Asher Roth).</p>

10

<p>White Jewish rappers?? Pretty harmless stuff. Could be the college party song for this Spring.</p>

11

<p>"It’s always going to be something. Remember “Sex and Drugs and Rock & Roll”? "</p>

<p>Hah! Thats EXACTLY what came into my mind!!</p>

12

<p>I remember my aunt being very concerned about my little cousin hearing the words to Paul Simon’s “Cecilia.” She was bothered by the lyrics “Making love in the afternoon w/ Cecilia up in my bedroom.” He is now an Ivy grad, a lawyer and married to an ivy mom w/ three kids. He may be making love in the afternoon, w/ his wife, but that would be a treat given their hectic lives w/ three kids and jobs etc. </p>

<p>My college age kids have been hearing, sometimes liking, songs w/ questionable lyrics for years. They do not hide it from me. We each listen and laugh. I, and they, know they will not go and do what is said in the lyrics. They like the song or rhythm.</p>

<p>I honestly do not think a kid who has been brought up w/ a certain set of ethics or morals will abandon them based on a songs lyrics.</p>

13

<p>“I actually think it’s a catchy tune, and the artist has been well educated (about what will sell); I just mourn the time and money wasted by the kids who will consider this their “anthem”.”</p>

<p>And I will add "the parents’ money wasted on the “college experience” of the kids who consider this their “anthem”…</p>

14

<p>^ Exactly. That’s why I posted here, and not on college life. And honestly, I’m not one of those people who think music is a bad influence. I listen to pop music and clean-ish rap all the time. That’s how I heard it. Just thought it would be an interesting post on college confidential.</p>

15

<p>Haha, wow. This is one of the funniest threads I’ve ever read anywhere on the internet. You guys are so out of touch with reality. God bless your gifted children, they are great kids, I’m sure, but don’t you think there’s more to life?</p>

<p>As a college student I feel its my responsibility to help you through this… take a deep breath, put the wine cooler down, and remember this:</p>

<p>Kids make mistakes.</p>

<p>Whew…feel better now?</p>

16

<h1>13 YOU MOURN “time and money wasted by the kids who will consider this their anthem.”</h1>

<p>Exactly what time and money? And what are you mourning??</p>

17

<p>This song is extremely exaggerated.</p>

<p>College kids will go crazy. However, they will realize that they can’t party 24/7.</p>

<p>I doubt people make this their anthem.</p>

18

<p>I don’t get it. What are you talking about? How are we out of touch with reality. Okay, so I’m naive. What post are you referring to? And I suppose the fact that this is the funniest post you’ve seen here, is a reflection of how long you’ve been around.</p>

<p>I don’t think anybody here is saying “partying” is a mistake. I DO think blowing 50 grand or more by flunking out is a pretty big “mistake”.</p>

<p>NOW I feel better.</p>

<p>^Oops! Cross posted. That was to joeblow70.</p>

<p>"I doubt people make this their anthem. "</p>

<p>Glad to hear it…I guess I won’t mourn after all. I meant dropped and withdrawn classes, hang overs. Unfortunately several kids at my neighbors school didn’t go back for the spring semester. I’m happy if that’s a fairly unique situation.</p>

<p>Hey this is the parents forum! I purposely didn’t intrude into college life…sheesh! Can’t I have a little fun?</p>

19

<p>Right on Shrinkrap!!!</p>

<p>I actually don’t like this song, but for what it’s worth it does promote the college experience for students who might have otherwise not considered going.</p>
