[Verse]
Gimme that mic fool, lemme get a few things off the chest
I remember them, student days put me to the test yes
actually you could say, that i put myself through it
how could i be helpful to mum if i aint sail through a
tertiarty institute, older brother, sister who
did it, so you aint shit if you ain't in the livin room
with "bachelor" on the wall, this plaque is awarded for
what ? I don't know shit.. back chillin on the wall
outside of the guidance counsellors office
and he sittin askin if I know, what I'm really wantin out of life
see I don't know, what I wanna do or pursue, I just wanna make
moves with the crew to hit the
[Chorus]

[Bridge]
[Verse]
Year 00, now I'm outside in the big bad world

what, what you wanna do ? still don't really know
so just grabbed the university brochure and i chose
somethin at a whim, I.T? Yeah, i like computer games
"but I heard their pay got lower since Y2K?".. fuck it
I suck at economics and accounting, so BCom is out
B Bursary cut down all the choices, aint no medicine or engineering for me,
now the only small problem is the fees
cost 3 and a half to 5 over 4 years
yeah its steep but you shoulda tried to save before you're here
you gonna need money for text books on top of that here
here's a discount card for Shads cheapen up your beer
don't fear, if you ain't got no money little Dave
here's a student loan form, you can sign your life away to
[Chorus]
Big Time
soon we'll hit the Big Time
when we hit the Big Time
soon we'll hit the Big Time
so you gotta reach for that money
keep receipts for that money
they gon leach all that money
when you least need it, but we
hit the Big Time
soon we'll hit the Big Time
