Bachelor’s Degree Lyrics by Philip Labes

Spring

2022

[Verse 1]
For all my best friends, talking about you is boring
I know productive conversation's unlikely
Like who broke who's heart, who was wrong, who was ignoring
A broken record scratching a good spot on the psyche
Sometimes I want things to happen even if they're bad things
Then at least something would be happening with you and me
Give me a big fight, give me a misunderstanding
I speak every kind of heartbreak fluently
[Chorus]
At this point I've got ten thousand hours
I don't think there's more I can do
I could get a bachelor's degree
In getting over you
At this point I'm so great at forgetting
I'm the expert on what you do
But I think I'm finally ready
To be bad at someone new
Bad at someone new
[Verse 2]
I'll teach a course to all your future ex-lovers
Here are the missteps I made, everyone
Don't sleep together, don't be friends if you're not friends
Kinda fucked up, and it was also kinda fun
See, I've got the mantras, all of the self-affirmations
I've got the "10 Easy Ways" and the "Build Your Foundations"
I've got the lo-fi heartbreak radio stations
Clearly I'm better, all better, congratulations
[Chorus]
At this point I've got ten thousand hours
I don't think there's more I can do
I could get a bachelor's degree
In getting over you
At this point I'm so great at forgetting
I'm the expert on what you do
But I think I'm finally ready
To be bad at someone new
Bad at someone new
[Bridge]
I'm what you went through just to get to
The perfect person that'll get you
I'm your step stool, I'm your jet fuel
Four years down the drain, like the glass of champagne at the interview
She asks me where I went to school
I went to college, then went to you
[Chorus]
At this point I've got ten thousand hours (At this point I've got ten thousand hours)
I don't think there's more I could do (I don't think there's more I could do)
I can get a bachelor's degree (I can get a bachelor's degree)
In getting over you (In getting over you)
At this point I'm so great at forgetting (At this point I'm so great at forgetting)
I'm the expert on what you do (I'm the expert on what you do)
But I think I'm finally ready (But I think I'm finally ready)
To be bad at someone new (To be bad at someone new)
Bad at someone new
Someone new
