Waltzing Matilda

See that jolly student, dropped outside the school one day,
He's gonna begin IB life, is he,
And he sang as skipped up the slope on that bright morning day,
"You'll come a-mugging IB life with me!"

Mugging Assessments, Mugging those Term Tests, 
"You'll come a-mugging IB life with me!"
And he sang as skipped up the slope on that bright morning day,
"You'll come a-mugging IB life with me!"

Down came the work, piling up upon his head,
EE, IAs, TOK, whoopee!
And he sang as he sat, struggling through some damned uncertainties,
"I need Excel to do this with ease."

Working those IAs, no sleep till midnight,
"I need Excel to do this with ease."
And he sang as he sat, struggling through some damned uncertainties,
"I need Excel to do this with ease."

No more free time, gone like that small gust o' wind,
Work, work, work, and more work, you'll see!
And he sang as he slept, his mind filled up with misery,
"To survive, I need much more coffee!"

Coffee and Milo, Horlicks and Hi-Lo,
"To survive, I need much more coffee..."
And he sang as he slept, his filled up with misery,
"To survive, I need much more coffee..."

Exams have all passed, school's out, the hols are here to stay!
No more work, TOK, Hooray!
And he sang as he stared into the brightly lighted clear blue sky,
"Now it's time for NS, hooray!"

Push-ups and sit-ups, pull-ups and chin-ups,
"Now it's time for NS, hooray!"
And he sang as he pumped, his forehead filled with beads of sweat,
"IB Life beats this shit any day!"
