Well, a large degree of frustration with trying to keep a school schedule which is reasonable and helps advance my degree has produced this filk. Whether it's art is up to you. Keep My Counselors Satisfied lyrics by Morgan Lewis tune of "Keep the Customers Satisfied", by P. Simon & A. Garfunkel Gee, but it seems I'm on my own, Classes are not there for me, Tryin' to get what I want, my friend, And if you'd only watch I know you couldn't help but see, It's a sorry story. Every term I go, I get scrambled, Stymied, I end up taking classes I don't need, So I still am registered full-time, And don't fall below the twelve credit line, I'm just trying to keep my counselors satisfied, Satisfied. CS Department said to me, "Three-nine-nine has been can-celled, boy," I'm down a credit, two or three, Need to make 'em up, So now I'm headed into War, and the Samurai, yeah. Every term I go, I get scrambled, Stymied, I end up taking classes I don't need, So I still am registered full-time, And don't fall below the twelve credit line, And I'm so tired, So frustrated and tired, I'm just trying to keep my counselors satisfied, Satisfied. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------- Morgan Lewis mrl@efn.org mlewis@gladstone.uoregon.edu mlewis@cs.uoregon.edu ..
