Nick Why? - Fly [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Been to three private schools of Toronto
To this one, I didn't even want to go
Failed the entry, purposely
Had a responsibility
To my clique counting on me to return on beat
Handed in the test
Thought that I was set
Teacher asked me "Was it easy?"
I said "Yes"
All the other kids reading and comprehending
I just chose the answers that made the better ending
Like "what did the boy do at the corner store?"
Was it A: "he bought milk he was doing a chore"
B: "he fell face down onto the floor"
Or C: "he broke in for cash and candy galore;
Told the man to fill the bag before the cops came to the door"
If you think like me
We'd agree, obviously
The answer was C
But something else was meant to be
B, be, B, be
Did the
Interview, lady said I was charming
She said "oh darling, we might be calling"
Weeks later, there was a ring at the telephone
I was home
Nintendo 64 light was on
Mamma said I had an offer
You gotta be kidding me
Don't bother, I said, sticking to my affinity
I'mma stay at Bayview Glen 'till I'm a hundred infinity
Unlike guys studying vigorously for UCC
I gallivanted and frolicked, then gave up my seat immediately
Without skipping a beat
Now, clearly
I was fighting fate
Cuz it was late May
When another phone call came
At the age of 1 plus 8
I realized that this was my place
And to this date
I feel great (x2)
