I saw a poster in the hall of my dorm
It said "Follow your dreams offshore"
There was a picture of a luxury yacht
A summer spent relaxing, or so I thought
So I signed up and thought "How bad can it be?"
I never realized how bad it could be
That's how I got on a Semester at Sea
How did this happen to me?
I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be
There are way too many crusties
I don't wanna be on a Semester at C-Sharp
All the state rooms are vacant because
Everyone's squatting with their mangy dogs
And all the life boats were chopped up for fires
Burned on the deck in a pit made from tires
There's been an outbreak of impetigo
The buffet is just a dumpster
I can't escape the smell no matter where I go
How did this happen to me?
I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be
There are way too many crusties
I don't wanna be on a Semester at C-Sharp
This is nothing like Road Rules
There's so many white dudes with dreads
Water, water everywhere but not a drop to drink
There's water fucking everywhere
Why does everybody stink?
Misery, Nausea, Fleas and Lice
They're more than just back patches here
How did this happen to me?
I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be
There are way too many crusties
I don't wanna be on a Semester at C-Sharp
