Alright, the time is upon us once again. It's nearly finals week, which means we'll all be studying and rereading our notes until we're finally released to Winter break. For some of us, this time conveniently falls after the release of Taylor Swift's new album, 'reputation', which means all of the songs are stuck in our heads. Here are 17 lyrics from the album that you can sing to your professor during finals week.
1. "So I take my time, are you ready for it?"
As you receive your final, and realize that yes, it is double sided. And you 100% plan on being the last one out of that room.
2. "Baby, let the games begin."
So, they want to play you by giving you several long-answer essays to finish in the span of just two hours? That’s fine.
3. "I don’t wanna hurt you, I just wanna be drinking on a beach…"
Just be honest with them at this point. No hard feelings Professor, but being on a beach right now is preferable to crying my way through this microbiology exam.
4. "I’ve made mistakes and made some choices, that’s hard to deny."
My mistakes include not studying enough for this final, because looking through it makes me want to cry.
5. "I did something bad."
Not just something bad. Something horrible. In all of my preparations for each final, did you really expect me to spend my time on your study guides?
6. "Is it cool that I said all that?"
I’m sorry my essay is longer than the max word count, but I had a lot to say. You’ll understand when you read it, trust me.
7. "I don’t like your perfect crime, how you laugh when you lie."
“YOU SAID THIS WOULDN’T BE ON THE EXAM AND YOU LIED!” I scream as I flip through the entire exam.
8. "I got smarter, I got harder in the nick of time."
Did you know you can memorize an entire semester’s worth of philosophy in one night?
9. "I’ve got a list of names and yours is in red, underlined."
I keep track of all the professors who have wronged me. You’ll see my feelings on Rate My Professor after the semester ends.
10. "Oh, look what you made me do."
Honestly, the extra three pages of matching and true/false was unnecessary.
11. "You did a number on me."
And honestly, I’m counting.
12. "You should take it as a compliment that I got drunk and made fun of the way you talk."
I didn’t understand an entire word you said this semester, you don’t think my friends were going to hear about it at a party?
13. "You’ve ruined my life."
Self-explanatory.
14. "I shoulda known I’d be the first to leave."
I know I’m the first one to turn the exam in, and I’m hoping that’s because it was as easy as I thought it was and I didn’t just bomb that.
15. "This is why we can’t have nice things."
I spent the last two weeks crying into a lab manual while simultaneously writing a couple hundred flashcards. No nice things were had.
16. "But then you stabbed me in the back while shaking my hand."
The day I met you, I should have known you’d give me the hardest exam of my life.
17. "Don’t read the last page."
Really, it’s better if you don’t acknowledge my exam at all. If you could just give me like a ‘B’ and move on with your life, that’d be best.
