Laurence O'Keefe & Nell Benjamin - The Harvard Variations lyrics

[EMMETT] Hello, I'm Emmett Forrest Welcome to the hallowed halls of Harvard Law Let's go around and share a bit about yourselves [AARON] Aaron Schultz I won a Fulbright and a Rhodes I write financial software codes But that's a challenge I've outgrown How many yachts can one man own? Some say that I'm a pompous creep Somehow I don't lose that much sleep Why bother with false modesty? Harvard's the perfect place for me [EMMETT/ENID/SUNDEEP] Pretty impressive, good to know [EMMET] Welcome to Harvard [SUNDEEP] What's up [ENID] Yo! [SUNDEEP] Sundeep Agrawal Padamadan But you may call me Your Majesty! In my country my word was law but then I flee because of stupid coup d'état But here I learn, I make new friends and soon return in bullet-proof Mercedes Benz [EMMETT/ENID/AARON] Pretty impressive, good to know [EMMETT] Welcome to Harv- [ENID] Enid Hoopes! I did the Peace Corps overseas Innoculating refugees in family clinics that I built myself from mud and trees I fought to clean up their lagoons and save their rare endangered loons And led a protest march against insensitive cartoons [EMMETT/SUNDEEP/AARON] Pretty impressive, good to- [ENID] But now I'm on the legal track because this country's out of whack and only women have the guts to go and take it back We'll make the government come clean and get more people voting Green And really stick it to the phallocentric war machine [ELLE] I love your top, it is so fatigue chic! Anyone know where I could find Criminal Law 101 with Professor Callahan... and Warner Huntington III? [EMMETT] It's in Hauser, over there, second building on the left [ELLE] Thanks! [AARON] I won a Fulbright and a Rhodes I write financial software codes Why bother with false modesty? Harvard's the perfect place for me [SUNDEEP] In my country my word was law But then I flee [ENID] I did the Peace Corps overseas innoculating refugees In family clinics that I built myself from mud and trees [AARON/SUNDEEP/ENID] Harvard's the perfect place for- [ELLE] Warner! [ENSEMBLE] Ahh ah ah ah ahh [ELLE] 'Scuse me [ENSEMBLE] Ahh ah ah ah ahh [ELLE] Pardon me [ENSEMBLE] Ahh ah ah ah ahh [ELLE] Comin' through! [ENSEMBLE] Harvard's the perfect place for me! Pretty impressive, good to know Welcome to Harvard! [WARNER] Elle?! [ELLE] Hm? Oh my God, Warner? I totally forgot you go here
