  1. Student loans loom large,
    The Academic Hobo
    Begs for work each term.

  2. Sixty bad papers
    Office hours in coffee lounge
    For two-thousand bucks?!

  3. Fifteen hundred bucks,
    And now the college wants me
    To pay for parking.

  4. Two for the price of one!

    My school pays three grand.
    I complain, but I guess it's
    Actually not bad?

    Job wants doctorate,
    Only pays thirty thousand.
    Are they kidding me?
