Your story's sad to tell 
A grown up ne'er do well 
Most mixed up non-delinquent on the block 
    Your future's so unclear now 
    What's left of your career now 
    Can't even get a trade in on your stock
MIT dropout 
No graduation day for you 
MIT dropout 
Missed your mid-terms and flunked thermo too... 
Well at least you could have taken time to wash and clean your clothes up 
After spending all that dough to have the college fix your brain up 
    Baby get moving (Better get movin') 
    Why keep your feeble hopes alive 
    What are you proving (What are you provin') 
    You've got the dream but not the drive
If you go for your diploma you could join the working pool 
Turn in your palm pilot and go back to grad school 
MIT dropout (MIT dropout) 
    Hanging around the student store 
    MIT dropout (MIT dropout) 
    It's about time you knew the score
Well they couldn't teach you anything, you think you're such the shit 
But no customer would go to you unless he was an idiot 
    Baby don't sweat it (Don't sweat it) 
    You're not cut out to hold a job 
    Better forget it (Forget it) 
    Who wants their plans built by a slob
Now your fists are curled your senses twirled but still the world is cruel 
Wipe off that angel face and go back to grade school 
    Baby don't blow it 
    Don't put my good advice to shame 
    Baby you know it 
    Even dear Abby'd say the same
Now I've called the shot, get off the pot, I really gotta fly 
Gotta be going to the computer lab in the sky 
    MIT dropout (MIT dropout) 
    Go back to grad school 
    MIT dropout (MIT dropout) 
    Go back to grad school
