An original tune by myself about my Uni Experience so far - Rough take I made at the time (was still a bit ill!) :) - Quite a few personal references that I wouldn't expect anyone to get, but I hope you enjoy nonetheless!

Lyrics:

Verse 1

First got here didn't know what to expect,

all the johnny uni rules you're expected to accept,

collected my nickname with the E block fame,

I dont know what you heard about me but i guess its vain,

Lets get straight to the point, pun galore,

There's no point drinking anything other than snakebites anymore.

To the floor, amongst my floordrobe,

it's times like these where I wish I was sober,

uh, uh, through the wall,

with your YOLO attitude you can't win em all,

But it'll go to your head with her givin it in bed,

made up in a world that you thought was pretend,

Pre-chorus

So I'll lie on my bed cos I got no seating,

Hair dryer on cos I got no heating,

clothes in a heap from the night before,

and your minimum bed time is past 4,

Chorus

So I'll hold on, to the life I'm living,

And I'll focus, on the tests I'm sitting,

When you realise it's all tempromental you'll,

play the fool,

verse 2

third year focused but there was a time,

when I was stumbling in the gutter after dirty wine,

singing you'll be mine oh of course she will,

only got with her after she was taking MD pills,

for thrills, but still, we chilled, feels real, this kills,

feel ill, oh oh oh I guess I gotta repill,

So I walked 8 miles snapped back to reality

oh there goes gravity, but it doesn't matter see,

It flatters me, to think that Im desired, my hearts on fire,

or maybe thats my cooking, shit I wasn't looking,

Pre-chorus, Chorus,

Middle Eight,

Change can be a blessing, in disguise,

I dont want to be a failure, in my fathers eyes,

We're here for a short while, so it makes sense,

to be the man you wanted and win in the end,

When I look back on my life and ask for it twice,

I wont labour on the days when all I had was rice,

These memorys made and moments to keep

are songs that I'll sing in the end you'll see.

Chorus

Haha, "it's called Play the Fool, and it's about my Uni experience so far". Looks like you took Uni about as seriously as I did going in. Looking back, I am sure I could have "done more"... But I am happy to have completed it, with a Bachelor Degree in Learning Management. Enjoy your studies bro, and keep the fantastic music flowing! Your guitar work and vocals are actually astounding. Shalom, ♫ Ashwin Acharya
