I study nuclear science
I love my classes
I got a crazy teacher, he wears dark glasses
Things are going great, and they're only getting better
I'm doing all right, getting good grades
The future's so bright, i gotta wear shades
I've got a job waiting for my graduation
Fifty thou a year, buys a lot of beer
Things are going great, and they're only getting better
I'm doing all right, getting good grades
The future's so bright, i gotta wear shades
Well i'm heavenly blessed and worldly wise
I'm a peeping-tom techie with x-ray eyes
Things are going great, and they're only getting better
I'm doing all right, getting good grades
The future's so bright, i gotta wear shades
I study nuclear science
I love my classes
I got a crazy teacher, he wears dark glasses
Things are going great, and they're only getting better
I'm doing all right, getting good grades
The future's so bright, i gotta wear shades
I gotta wear shades, i gotta wear shades
