You ask me why I'm still in school
I know you finished years ago
It's easy when your cares are few
Your balance never low
But my grades won't be recorded
If I'm working to afford it
So I'll never graduate
Good things keep coming my way
They never quite get here
But who's gonna say
That I'm not bursting with joy
'Cause good things keep coming my way
With each new job my rate goes down
What gives if I'm more qualified
I haven't graduated yet
I promise you I tried
They don't care that I'm earning it
Just that I have an internship
I'll never get a raise
Good things keep coming my way
They never quite get here
But who's gonna say
That I'm not bursting with joy
'Cause good things keep coming my way
Oh we've been writing several months
And we've been kissing several weeks
I make her feel so special
And I pay for what she eats
But when I ask her for her hand
She won't commit to any plan
So kids will have to wait
Good things keep coming my way
They never quite get here
But who's gonna say
That I'm not bursting with joy
'Cause good things keep coming my way
Good things keep coming my way
They never quite get here
But who's gonna say
That I'm not bursting with joy
'Cause good things keep coming my way
Good things keep coming my way
Good things keep coming my way
Good things keep coming my way
Good things keep coming my way
