Bohemian Rhapsody (Notre Dame Finals Style)

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Notre Dame chapter.

Is this the test life? 

This prompt is a mystery. 

My laptop freakin’ died, 

School is not just a cup of tea. 

Open your eyes,

With no sleep I cannot see

I’m just a poor college student, I need God’s mercy. 

My grades are easy come, easy go, 

A little high, little low,

Anyway the curve goes, it will really matter to me, to me.

 

Mama, just killed an exam.

Slept with a pencil in my bed,

Now I’m written on with lead.

Mama, the semester had just begun,

But now I’ve gone and thrown my grades away.

Mama, ooo,

Didn’t mean to make you cry,

If I’m not awake by this time tomorrow, 

I will fail, I will fail, because the final is all that matters.

Too late, finals time has come, 

Sends shivers down my spine,

Head is aching all the time.

Goodbye everybody we’ve got to go,

Gotta leave the Dome behind and face the truth.

Mama, ooo,

I just want to cry.

I sometimes wish I hadn’t Feve’d at all.

 

I see a little silhouetto of a student.

Where’s my pooch?  Where’s my pooch? I’ll see him soon, though.

Cumulative and writing very very frightening! A “C”!

I will fail!  I will fail!

I will fail! I will fail!

I will fail Orgo! No, no, NOOOOOO!

 

I’m just a poor college kid, financial aid doesn’t love me. 

He’s just a finance major from an ND family, 

Spare his life from this finals monstrosity!

Easy come easy go, vacation let us go, 

Fighting Irish! No we will not let you go – let him go! 

Fighting Irish! We will not let you go – let him go!

 

Oh Father Jenkins, Father Jenkins, Father Jenkins let me go! 

Hesburgh Library has a book put aside for me! 

To read! 

For me!

 

So you think you can study and say goodbye?

So you think you can fail me and leave me to cry?

Oh Professor can’t do this to me Professor, 

Just gotta get out just gotta get right outta here.
 
 
These grades actually matter,
Grads schools, they will see.
These grades really matter, my future really matters to me.
