Could have been a doctor at the start
Too long stupid, too late smart
What was the reason for my choice?
Pretty girls and football boys.
And that’s how it goes
Like every every everyone knows
And that’s how it is
How every every everyone sees
Could have been a teacher or a nurse
Kids are awful, patients worse
What made me have a heart like stone?
Years of growing all alone
And that’s how it goes
Like every every everyone knows
And that’s how it is
How every every everyone sees
Could have been a rockstar brave and bold
Too long fat and too soon old
What made me give up stagelight dreams?
Years of tears and baby screams.

I felt this subject matter quite a bit, so well done on the write. I can hear the punk influences but it also reads well on its own.
