If you go out to uni today you're sure of a big surprise.
You may be bored but anyway i'm sure your intellect will rise.
For subjects such as fluids and soils may really stretch your mind.
But somehow I don't think it's quite the same in the case of structural design.

If you go out to uni today you'll find you're not alone.
It's lovely to be at uni today, but so tempting to stay at home.
For every student there ever was will be meandering about there too.
And if you don't make an effort that one sitting on Eastern Avenue lawns instead of a lecture might just be you.

If you go into uni today you can take part in an EU public meeting.
You could be transformed by the renewing of your mind by a talk thats meaning's not fleeting.
For amongst the students who follow Christ you'll find a community of grace.
And as you strive in Christ's stride all evils you'll be bold to face.

If you go into uni today you're sure to have heaps of fun.
From working sudokus to playing cards to soccer in the sun.
Though when it's time to say farewell you'll never be sorry,
Because you'll scurry home to return tomorrow just like me!

Up, up, up and away!!

actually, they have. my parents have a cd with a song called 'picnic time at hanging rock' or something like that. the chorus goes: "picnic time at hanging rock, see the teddy bears leaping over the mountain top. what's that thing up in the air? it's a fast descending teddy bear" hehehehe

Yes Pun! That last site was exactly where I went to remind myself of the tune!
