What Do You Do with a B.A. in English / It Sucks to Be Me

Lyrics

What do you do with a B.A. in English?
 What is my life going to be?
 Four years of college and plenty of knowledge
 Have earned me this useless degree
 I can't pay the bills yet 'cause I have no skills yet
 The world is a big scary place
 But somehow I can't shake the feeling I might make
 A difference to the human race
 Morning, Brian
 Hi, Kate Monster
 How's life?
 Disappointing
 What's the matter?
 The catering company laid me off
 Oh, I'm sorry!
 Me too! I mean, look at me!
 I'm ten years out of college
 And I always thought, oh
 What?
 No, it sounds stupid
 Aww, come on!
 When I was little I thought I would be
 What?
 A big comedian on late night TV
 Ha-ha! Oh!
 But now I'm thirty-two and as you can see I'm not
 Nope!
 Oh well
 Mmm
 It sucks to be me
 No
 It sucks to be me
 No
 It sucks to be broke and unemployed
 And turning thirty-three, it sucks to be me
 You think your life sucks?
 I think so
 Your problems aren't so bad!
 I'm kinda pretty and pretty damn smart
 You are!
 Thanks! I like romantic things like music and art
 And as you know I have a gigantic heart
 So why don't I have a boyfriend?
 Fuck! It sucks to be me
 Me too
 It sucks to be me
 It sucks to be me, it sucks to be Brian
 And Kate
 To not have a job!
 To not have a date!
 It sucks to be me
 Hey, Rod, Nicky, can you settle something for us?
 Do you have a second?
 Ah, certainly
 Whose life sucks more? Brian's or mine?
 Ours!
 We live together
 We're as close as people can get
 We've been the best of buddies
 Ever since the day we met
 So he knows lots of ways to make me really upset
 Oh every day is an aggravation
 Come on, that's an exaggeration!
 You leave your clothes out
 You put your feet on my chair
 Oh yeah?
 You do such anal things like ironing your underwear
 You make that very small apartment we share a hell
 So do you, that's why I'm in hell too!
 It sucks to be me!
 No, it sucks to be me!
 It sucks to be me!
 It sucks to be me!
 Is there anybody here it doesn't suck to be?
 It sucks to be me!
 Why you all so happy?
 Because our lives suck!
 Your lives suck? I hearing you correctly?
 Ha! I coming to this country for opportunities
 Tried to work in Korean deli but I am Japanese
 But with hard work I earn two master's degrees in social work!
 And now I a therapist! But I have no clients!
 And I have an unemployed fiance!
 And we have lots of bills to pay!
 It suck to be me! It suck to be me!
 I say it sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-suck!
 It suck to be me
 Excuse me?
 Hey there
 Sorry to bother you, but I'm looking for a place to live
 Why you looking the way out here?
 Well, I started at Avenue A
 But so far everything is out of my price range
 But this neighborhood looks a lot cheaper!
 Oh, and look a 'For Rent' sign!
 You need to talk to the superintendent
 Let me get him
 Great, thanks!
 Yo, Gary!
 I'm comin' I'm comin'
 Oh my God! It's Gary Coleman!
 Yes I am! I'm Gary Coleman, from TV's Diff'rent Strokes
 I made a lotta money that got stolen by my folks!
 Now I'm broke and I'm the butt of everyone's jokes
 But I'm here the superintendent! On Avenue Q
 It sucks to be you
 You win!
 It sucks to be you
 I feel better now!
 Try having people stopping you to ask you
 'What you talkin' 'bout, Willis?'
 It gets old!
 It sucks to be you on Avenue Q
 (Sucks to be me)
 On Avenue Q
 (Sucks to be you)
 On Avenue Q
 (Sucks to be us)
 But not when we're together
 We're together here on Avenue Q!
 We live on Avenue Q! Our friends do too!
 'Til our dreams come true
 We live on Avenue Q!
 This is real life!
 We live on Avenue Q
 You're gonna love it
 We live on Avenue Q!
 Here's your keys!
 Welcome to Avenue Q!
