I Don't Want to Be an Engineer Songtext
von Ellie Minibot

I don′t want to be an engineer
I tried so hard and got so far, and now I can't decide
All my life I′ve given my career
These numbers in my head keep on spinnin' 'round and ′round, yeah

I can only guess what′s right
Should I stay three more years just to waste away?
Become a slave to all these numbers?
It's overdue, all this stress, yet I say I′m fine

Workin' overtime, trying to finish this in time
Got myself into this mess, can I really pass this test? Yeah
X, Y, Z
Teach me how to breathe
I′m suffocating deep inside, I can't deny I′ve tried to quit
All my life I've failed to be the one to meet these expectations
All my life I've tried, now all this stress to fill those answers


A, B, C
Finding all these numbers (numbers)
Integrate, differentiate, it′s getting old, yeah
Five, four, three (five, four, three)
Finding all these numbers (numbers)
Calculate, no mistake, it′s getting old, yeah

I can only guess what's right
Should I stay three more years just to waste away?
Become a slave to all these numbers?
It′s overdue, all this stress, yet I say I'm fine

I don′t want to be an engineer
I tried so hard and got so far, and now I can't decide
All my life I′ve given my career
These numbers in my head keep on spinnin' 'round and ′round, yeah

I can only guess what′s right
Should I stay three more years just to waste away?
Become a slave to all these numbers?
It's overdue, all this stress, yet I say I′m fine

I don't want to be an engineer
I tried so hard and got so far, and now I can′t decide
All my life I've given my career
