LYRICS:
Day one, med school - let's begin
I'm here to learn incredible things
Logic, magic, medicine
Saw the school and I thought, oh my god
Look at that place, it looks like it's from outer space
School's a game, wanna stay?
No money; stethoscope
Allow me to take your history
Ain't it funny, still got hope
'Cause I still like biochemistry
So hey, first year meds
Study all night until we're dead
Grab your
TIME passport and my hand
I can make these grades all good til the weekend
[CHORUS]
So it's gonna get all better
Or it's gonna get all inflamed
And I'll know when it's over
If the degree was worth the pain
Got a long list of case studies
They're driving me insane
'Cause you know I love the gunners
And they love the game
'Cause we don't know what we're doing
And med school's way too hard
You'll leave dyspneic
Or with a nasty scar
Got a long list of credentials
That means
I've got a brain
But I've got a blank space, maybe
I'll guess the name
Cherry spots, cystic spines
Symptoms all sound exactly the same
Herpes virus, lymphocytes
I'm so lost, someone help me please
Find out what you want
Memorize that for a month
And
Step 1 is yet to come, oh no
Screaming, crying, sleepless nights
I can make all the tables turn
BRSs, what a sight
Keep me second-guessing like, oh my god
G6P? What's
MCAD deficiency?
The
HSC, I'll never leave
'Cause darling it ain't easy trying to get that
M.D.
So it's gonna get all better
Or it's gonna get all inflamed
And I'll know when it's over
If the degree was worth the pain
[CHORUS]
Boards only want you to be tortured
Don't say I didn't say I didn't warn you
Boards only want you to be tortured
Don't say I didn't say I didn't warn you
[CHORUS]
I'll guess
... uncinate process
