God, we spent ages on this...

I wrote, and recorded with a friend, a track to make the transition between school and college - kind of a Limp Bizkit parody in some ways. It has a few in-jokes but the majority could be understood by anyone who has ever been educated. (I rap the second verse, BTW)

So we're all leaving school N' going to college
Dan Holley just hopes that YOU'LL HAVE LOTS OF KNOWLEDGE
When you take a course that you want to do
Showin' no remorse, cos it STINKS LIKE POO
When you've done owt wrong An' a teacher's on you
Mutha****er's just giving you twice you gave, too
Like 'You think I enjoy this? You think I'm your slave?'
Well it's alright for you love; you're the one getting..

PAID (with a jaunty toupee)
Getting PAID (an' I'm writin' an essay)
Getting PAID (only hope that's me someday)
Getting PAAAAAAAAIIIIIIID (only if my food's on a tray)

It's been a bloody'ard year, with it's ups an' downs
Maybe side to side 'fore we hit the ground
While mashed (wheyy) or even more so
Shouting 'I love to party!'... Let's see how we go
Or Post-viral chronic fatigue syndrome
Through no fault of your own, real shame you can't roam, but
You own everyone on subjects of medicine to ohms!
It's grown to be a case of

Up n' DOWN (coursework all night and all day)
Up n' DOWN (my rope is starting to fray)
Up n' DOWN (but we're still OK)
Up n' DOOOWWWWN (glad it's not here we must stay)

Yo' Fob Nob, shred that thing! (Guitar solo)

[Middle 8, 1 line to 2 bars]
We've all been here
A little bit too long
But I'll miss everyone in Misfit Park
Just as soon as I'm gone....

I've gotta get out
You've gotta get out
(Please)Let us all out
Cos we've gotta get out (X2)
GOTTA GET OUT, GOTTA GET OUT
GOTTA GET OUT, GOTTA GET OUT
GOTTA GET OUT, NOOOOWWWW! ...Else I won't be
PAID (with a jaunty toupee)
Getting PAID (an' I'm writin' an essay)
Getting PAID (only hope that's me someday)
Getting PAID (only if my food's on a tray), and still be
Up n' DOWN (coursework all night and all day)
Up n' DOWN (my rope is starting to fray)
Up n' DOWN (but we're still OK)
Up n' DOOOWWWWN (glad it's not here we must stay)

Yeeeea.
