Song: Fresh Student of Compsci

Now, this is a story all about how
My brain got flipped-turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute
Just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the student of a class called comp sci

In Kansas City born and raised
In my bedroom was where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
And all registering for classes outside of my school
When a couple of courses that were up to no good
Started making trouble in my schedule's neighborhood
I enrolled in one little class and my mom said WHY??
She said 'You need to enroll instead in a class called comp sci'

I begged and pleaded with her day after day
But she convinced me and then sent me on my way
She gave me a kiss and my RDU plane ticket
I put my Duke sweatshirt on and said, 'I might as well kick it'.

First lecture, yo this is cool
Learning about for loops and snarfing APTs is for no fool
Is this what the people of comp sci are like?
Hmmmmm, this might be alright.

But wait I hear they're nerdy, weird, all that
Is this the type of place that they just send this cool cat?
I don't think so
I'll see if it's a lie
I hope they're prepared for the student of comp sci

I waited for the c3 and when it came near
Its sides advertised going green and it had a smiley face in the mirror
If anything I could say that this bus was super fly
But I thought 'Nah, forget it' - 'Yo, homes to comp sci'

I pulled up to the stop about 1:25
And I yelled to the driver 'Thanks for the ride to science drive'
I looked at the LSRC
I was finally there--no lie
To sit on my seat as student of comp sci.
