I don't know the song, but it's a fun idea.
Here's a song all about those times when we were cramming for exams and such.
This one is devoted to student trying to complete his Ph. D. thesis ...
"Carry The Five"
(parody of
"Stayin' Alive" by the Bee Gees)
Well, you can tell that it's time for Ph. D.,
And the student's tired as he can be.
He's survived on coffee (black),
But his thesis is now back on track.
And so he must write - cannot stop;
Or else his work will be a flop.
Can he be a doctor (math)?
Well, firstly he must walk this path...
Chorus:
Is he math'matician or will he be politician?
He'll carry the five, carry the five.
See professor judgin', but his work he won't be smudgin' -
He'll carry the five, carry the five.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, carry the five - carry the five.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, carry the fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiive....
Well now, he's been working for so long,
Now the goal's in sight - he must be strong.
He's feeling exhausted but he's very close,
Now is not the time to be morose.
So now deltas dance, and epsilons,
Derivatives he calls upon;
Can he differentiate?
His theorem must not be late!
Chorus:
Is he math'matician or will he be politician?
He'll carry the five, carry the five.
Whether by statistics or by easier linguistics,
He'll carry the five, carry the five.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, carry the five - carry the five.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, carry the fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiive....
He's writin' on. He needs those functions.
He writes those functions, yeah.
He's writin' on. He needs those functions.
Those functions work out, yeah.
Carry the five.
Well, you can tell that it's time for Ph. D.,
And the student's tired as he can be.
He's survived on coffee (black),
But his thesis is now back on track.
And so he must write - cannot stop;
Or else his work will be a flop.
Will he be a doctor (math)?
Well, firstly he must walk this path...
Chorus:
Is he math'matician or will he be politician?
He'll carry the five, carry the five.
See professor judgin', but his work he won't be smudgin' -
He'll carry the five, carry the five.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, carry the five - carry the five.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, carry the fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiive....
He's goin' nowhere; he'll get his Doctor's.
He'll get his Doctor's, yeah.
He's goin' nowhere; he'll get his Doctor's.
He'll get his Doctor's, yeah.
He'll carry the five.
