Lyrics:
Dear struggling student, when you read my book
it will suck your brains out with just a look!
It's based on a thousand other books I've read
And I reference them all 'cause I am an academic writer
Academic writer!

I use the biggest words at my command
To make it difficult to understand
pneumonoultramicroscopicsilico-
volcanoconiosis now that is big but nothing for a writer
Academic writer!

Academic writeeeer (writer!) (writer...)

It's got ten revisions give or take a few
Then another is out in a week or two!
I do this to add a couple more big words
And to empty your wallets cause I am a total pompous blighter
Academic writer!

If I wrote my book to be decipherable
Then the consequences would be terrible
You'd see that the book could be a quarter the length
But I wouldn't make money the way I do if it was lighter
ACADEMIC WRITER!!!

Acadeeeeemic writer! (Academic writer...)
Acadeeeeemic writer! (Academic writer...)
Acadeeeeemic writer! (Academic writer...)
Acadeeeeemic writer! (Academic writer...)

(No, I still make no money off it, though a few people have been kind enough to help me lower my DEBT to cafepress lately. You're awesome!)

Everything in the song performed by myself using only the built-in microphone on my iMac, my cheap Jaw Harp, 93 pence in change and my own angelic voice. Edited in Garageband. (Then video edited in Final Cut.)
