Dead Kennedys Terminal Preppie Lyrics

Terminal Preppie Lyrics

I go to college
That makes me so cool
I live in a dorm
And show off by
the pool

I join the right clubs
Just to build an impression
I
block out thinking
It won't get me ahead

My ambition in life
Is to
look good on paper
All I want is a slot
In some big
corporation

John Belushi's my hero
I lampoon and I ape him
My news
of the world
Comes from Sports Illustrated

I'm proud of my
trophies
Like my empty beer cans
Stacked in rows up the wall
To
impress all my friends

No, I'm not here to learn
I just want to get
drunk
And major in business
And be taught how to fuck

Win!
Win!
I always play to win
Wanna fit in like a cog
In the faceless
machine

I'm a terminal terminal terminal preppie
terminal terminal
terminal preppie
terminal terminal terminal terminal
terminal terminal
terminal terminal

I want a wife with tits
Who just smiles all the
time
In my centerfold world
Filled with Springsteen and wine

Some
day I'll have power
Some day I'll have boats
A tract in some
suburb
With Thanksgivings to host

I'm a terminal terminal terminal
preppie
terminal terminal terminal preppie
terminal terminal terminal
preppie
