Academic Suicide

pull the trigger, my eyes are closed
and my brain is leaking out of my ears;
i've read more than I'd like
someone give me a spike
'cause I need to fall on it like a sword!

too much theory makes me dreary
but i've already put my hand to the plow;
it's just that I feel like the donkey
and the whip's on my back
oh my goodness, it's academic suicide attack!!

help me, I'm loco and can't seem to focus -
graduation is more than a year away;
I can't stop the procrastination
it's like the painkiller for my disease,
yet the gods of academia still want to be appeased!!
