The Lyrics

God help me, I've been fully initiated into my school's Mock Trial cult. It's two weeks till competition, so I felt it'd be an appropriate time to spin out a parody on what it's REALLY like being a part of a freakishly honored nerd-school cult. :-)
Gobbling No-Doz
Birkenstock-clad toes
Meetings that last six hours a day
Brand new exhibit
Must introduce it
I hope I can remember what to say


Donating my life to my school's Mock Trial Team
Arguing "Prosecution's at fault!"
Some people claim I'm headed for school-wide fame
But I know I've joined a damn cult

I don't know the reason
Stayed here all season
Practice is the only thing that I do
Life gets so frustrating
'Cos my closing statement
Maggi and Kari say it is screwed.

Donating my life to my school's Mock Trial Team
Arguing "Prosecution's at fault!"
Some people claim I'm headed for instant fame
Now I think
That I have joined a cult

Now it's competition
It's our final mission
To bring the Golden Gavel back home
Well, We kick many asses
Evade all our classes
And gulp Frappuccinos to help us hang on.

Donating my life to my school's Mock Trial Team
Arguing "Prosecution's at fault!"
Some people claim I'm headed for instant fame
Now I think
That I have joined a cult
Yes and some people claim I'm headed for instant fame
But I know that I've joined a cult
