sick of being a useless intern?

i wake up early every day
and ride to work on the L & C subway
some might think i've got it made
the problem is - i don't get paid

i'm just a useless intern, see
no one wants to employ me
i pay my rent with student loans
& the cost of living makes me groan
i've had a lot of internships now
at elite museums - you wonder, 'how?'?
i guess i'm a sort of smartish bro
but if smarts are enough, i do not know

i build models, do research, and write reports
i've done collections, exhibits - work of all sorts
i have degrees from two prestigious universities
and i'm G-damn sick of working for free!
can i have a job, please, in new york or san fran?
or some sunny city where i'll get a good tan?
can i start getting paid to do all this work?
or will i keep interning, and just go berserk?

it's not like i care a lot about money
but i do like to buy that expensive organic honey
i'd like to buy my parents some stuff -
of this crippling debt i've just had enough!
i know i'm young, and i should get some experience
but really - i get it - that's not what my fear is
my fear is that no one will give me a shot
and i'll intern till i'm 40 whether i like it or not

sick to death of paying my dues
why can't i just get paid like you?
just want to do some meaningful work -
but maybe i will just go tot'ly berserk
i'm just a useless intern, see
no one wants to employ me
so sing a lament for the sad intern bro
a lost, confused, and wandering soul
majoring in english & museum studies
is the choice that i made
so now i'm a hopeless intern -
never paid

r u a useless intern?
what was ur 'most meaningful' internship?
r u a useless '20-something'?
how do u get by in the competitive 'useless 20-something' market?
how do u 'pay ur bills'?
do u have a 'real' job?
do u just get all ur money from ur rich-ass parents?
will i get a job?
will i get a job that i '"'like'"'?

sick of being a worthless grad student?

yall
so sick of being a worthless
over-educated
white person
effing hipster
grad student + intern
few practical skills
thousands of dollars in debt
24 years old
writing history essays
no one will read
doesn't matter
tired
worn out
give up
over it
sick of the pressure
anxiety
debt
rlly just want to be a boring
8-5 mainstreamer
just want to blog
just want to watch netflix
just want to play X-box
just want to eat TV dinners
just want to read 'the da vinci code'
and 'eat pray love' and 'the secret'
and 'the five bros you meet in heaven'
want to watch 'glee' and 'CSI'
want to order take-out thai
want to drive a hummer
want to have 2.5 kids
that will grow up to resent me
exploit me for money
to live in a trendy, brooklyn-like city
while they go to grad school
to study film, literature, acting
tired
worn out
sick of being a worthless grad student + intern
paying money
to make copies
have people judge my writing
eff it
social life dead
cant find a date
seems like a corrupt system
we all buy into it
'M.A./Ph.D. = social status'
but does any of it matter
does n e one actually 'give a shit'
sort of confused
over it
24 years old
over-educated
white person
effing hipster
no practical skills
thousands of dollars in debt

at least its winter break soon yalls!
