it’s a place called Ghent
where I’ve been
where I went
what I’ve seen

it’s a place where I will go to for a while
to study criminology
it’s not like I have to ride thirty mile
to go to my university

I’ll go to Ghent again tomorrow
I’ll go there to bring some stuff there, I’ll go there with my dad
I’ll go to my room where I’ll have periods of sorrow
and periods in which I am very glad

Ghent was the name of this place
I’m curious how it’s going to be
some parts are a big disgrace
but we’ll see

I’ll meet new people there
and become their mate
friends with who I might share
and stay up late

a new life is right ahead
people think that I will dance and sing
some people wish it was them instead
and off course I’m going to make fun, but my studies will stay the most important thing
