Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm (The Studiengebühren-Song)

Sung to the melody of "Mmm Mmm Mmm" by the Crash Test Dummies

Once, there was this boy who
Woudn't go to class and woudn't read the books
But when he took the exam
He failed and had to do the course once more
He finished after ten years
And now he's got the Pulitzer

Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm

And then, there was this girl who
Would do nothing but study and learn all the day
She wished that she could party
But she just didn't really have a live
She had to finish real quick
Because her parents said so

Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm

But both girl and boy were glad
'Cause one kid had it worse than that

'Cause then, there was this boy who
Really got the stuff it takes to be a scientist
And if he just had his chance
He might have found a way to heal the cancer
He couldn't quite afford it
Now he is fixing engines

Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm
