FINALZ

Lyrics:

Head to Butler, didn’t pack light
Got me a pillow and I might spend the night.
Brace myself, it’s about to get crazy
Three days to go so I can’t get lazy

Go post up, 310,
Cup full of coffee and I’m ready to go
Just me and the bedbugs chillin’ in style,
And I think to myself, I could be here a while.

Gonna stay up all night, like…
Gotta bring my flashlight, like…
Is it gonna hurt like hell?
F I N A L S

Too much stuff in my brain
But I guess I really can’t complain
I’m gonna get it together, won’t shed a tear
Because next week, summer’s here. And so…

CHORUS

B’s & G’s up in the place, go put on your Butler face
‘Cause finals are a f***ing big deal
Calculus and Chemistry, Demeter and Persephone
I’m telling you this s**t is for real.

In one week, it’s summertime
So we gotta do it right
Even if that means not getting any sleep tonight…oh.

Studying Chem, trying to make sense,
Don’t know much so It’s getting kinda tense.
I’m looking at a process that we talked about in lecture,
And I think it’s isobaric, ’cause I’m still feeling the pressure.

Now onto Frontiers.
Work ’till the world ends, like Miss Spears.
Frogs having sex, the Earth blowing up,
Talk about the brain and blow bubbles in a cup.

So Aeneas loves Dido, Shakespeare loves drama,
Augustine loves God and reading with his mama.
And I hate them all, ’cause these quote ID’s
Are making me wish that I were in SEAS.

But it’s all good, I don’t care
With only one more week, I’m almost there.
Just one thing on my mind,
So I get back to the grind. And I say…

CHORUS

BRIDGE

Studyin’, studyin’ yeah…
Yesterday was Thursday
Studyin’, studyin’ yeah…
Tomorrow it is Saturday
Studyin’, studyin’ yeah…
And after that comes Sunday
Study in, studyin’ yeah…
And then…It’s time for summer.

CHORUS
