Just Around the Riverbend - A Remake

What I hate most about school is:
You can't have a day off
The subject's always changing, always multiplying
But people, I guess, like that
We all must pay a price
To be rich, we lose our chance of ever knowing
What's around the phar-ma-cy dooooor
Waiting just around the phar-ma-cy dooor

I look once more
Just around the phar-ma-cy dooor
Beyond the drug store
Where the students fly free
Don't know what for
What I dream the day might send
Jut around the phar-ma-cy dooor
For me
Coming for me

I feel it there beyond those boundaries
Or right behind these shortfalls
Can I ignore that sound of distant savings                                         
For a handsome sturdy pension
That builds handsome sturdy walls
And never dream that something might be coming?
Just around the phar-ma-cy dooor
Just around the phar-ma-cy dooor

I look once more
Just around the phar-ma-cy dooor
Beyond the drug store
Somewhere past the dreary
Don't know what for ...
Why do all my dreams extend
Just around the  phar-ma-cy dooor?
Just around the  phar-ma-cy dooor ...

Should I choose the smoothest curve
Steady as the reigning stratum?
Should I choose a carefree life?
Is all my dreaming at an end?
Or do you still wait for me, Career Giver
Just around the phar-ma-cy dooor?

I just felt like remaking that song. No, it's not because I'm upset with my career (although, I have those days too), but really, it's just because I don't want to study for biochemistry. As usual, I am procrastinating. I have been procrastinating for the whole weekend, so I thought I should do something that would at least show that I did SOMETHING productive.


Also, FYI, I realized I'm not in pharmacy school for the money. I really do love talking to people and helping people feel better! It's amazing how 3 months of school can change your mentality so much!
