About This Track

'Average Student' by Caity Baser is a 2021 pop track from the album 'Lil CB'. The lyrics sketch a gig economy sort of strain, with the narrator running on low money, leaning on drink, and trying to treat everything as a joke while “holding back the tears”. There is a restless self-questioning running through the words, too, as they weigh whether to continue at all and fret over what others do not know. The overall mood is raw, funny in places, but ultimately drained and vulnerable.

Lyrics

Average Student

I'm so broke
Yeah I got bills up to my ears, I've started to smoke
Drinking cheap wine and shitty beers
I'm saying it's jokes
But really I'm holding back the tears and debating my career
Maybe I should stop right here

'Cause nobody knows that I do this
Sometimes I just lose it, don't know what I'm doing
And I do not know why I do this
I'm fine then I'm clueless

Just your average student
That's tryna find her way
'Cause all the doors they keep on closing
I'm not okay
It's like nothing I do will keep 'em open
And I want to go away
On a permanent holiday
For at least three-six-five days

Three-six-five, three-six-five, three-six-five
I'm just your average student
Three-six-five, three-six-five, three-six-five
I don't know what I'm doing

I wanna go to Tahiti
So I can walk along the beach in a yellow bikini
But it all seems so out of reach
'Cause I can't afford a takeout, so how can I afford a flight?
I keep hoping that this ain't real, but it keeps me up every night

I don't sleep 'til the morning
Which means I'll be a grumpy bitch all day
And not do much talking
But my mind is so awake, I said my mind is awake
And the funny thing is that

Nobody knows that I do this
Sometimes I can't move it, don't know what I'm doing
And I do not know why I do this
I'm young, I'm so stupid

Just your average student
That's tryna find her way
'Cause all the doors they keep on closing
I'm not okay
It's like nothing I do will keep 'em open
And I want to go away
On a permanent holiday
For at least three-six-five days

Three-six-five, three-six-five, three-six-five
I'm just your average student
Three-six-five, three-six-five, three-six-five
I don't know what I'm doing

I don't know what to say (I don't)
I wish I had my own car in my driveway
Maybe a Mustang or a bright blue Chevrolet (Imagine that)
And I want to go away
For at least three-six-five days

'Cause I'm tryna find my way
'Cause all the doors they keep on closing
I'm not okay (I'm not okay)
It's like nothing I do will keep 'em open
And I want to go away
On a permanent holiday
For at least three-six-five days

Three-six-five, three-six-five, three-six-five (three-six-five days)
I'm just your average student
Three-six-five, three-six-five, three-six-five (mmm ah)
I don't know what I'm doing
