The Student Loan

 

---

Student loans in college are as common as cell phones,
sold to students by the banks in dulcet, urgent tones.
The good life is dependent on obtaining that sheep skin,
so running up a crushing debt is surely not a sin.
Mom and dad will co-sign right upon the dotted line,
hoping that their backyard will contain a deep gold mine.
Everyone who graduates from college is assured
a job that pays a fortune, even if you're not a nerd.
You'll never flip a burger or become a lowly clerk --
in fact with this economy you'll likely never work,
but spend your life on welfare dreaming of that PhD,
living in the basement of your parents all for free.
