Donald Trump's Rocking QUT Challenge - UQ Law Revue 2005

A reworded version of Ben Lee's Catch My Disease, commissioned by Donald Trump who wants a new advertising campaign for the Queensland University of Technology.

In retrospect, this song IS pretty harsh and over-the-top-UQ-propaganda-like. It's comparable to Leni Reifenstahl's best work except with bright colours and clapping. But I hope that you realize that it's so over-the-top that you can't take a lot of it so seriously.

Just enjoy the harmonies if anything. :D

From the 2005 University of Queensland Law Revue.

If your head is a box full of nothing
That's the way we like it
We don't have many departments
And that's the way we like it
That's the way we like it
If you're on parole and you're violent
That's the way we like it
That's the way we like it
If all of your marks have been shitty
That's the way we like it

QUT... QUT
Don't have to be smart
To get a degree

Our courses have two hour study loads
And that's the way you'll like it
Our lecturers' brain functions they are very slow
And that's the way you'll like it
That's the way you'll like it
And all of our pass grades, they are very low
And that's the way you'll like it
That's the way you'll like it
And if you don't turn up, WHO WILL EVER KNOW!
Woo hoo!
That's the way you'll like it

QUT... QUT
We disregard
Your crap OP
QUT... QUT
Pylons
But not many trees

QUT
Na na na na na na na na
Not UQ please!
Na na na na na na na na
Nor Griffith please!
Na na na na na na na na
Nor USQ please!
Na na na na na na na na
Or James Cook University
Na na na na na na na na
Um... what else rhymes with QUT? Bond?
Na na na na na na na na
Oh yeah, and TAFE! Don't go to TAFE!

i x understand this thing btwn UQ and QUT. I guess if u look at it from the elitist POV, UQ is the better uni with legacy, tradition and its one of the group of 8. however, QUT is more practical, looking to the needs of the community and fulfilling those needs. Im a QUT student and i hv a friend at UQ who said that evn the teaching staff at UQ hv some 'hostility' towards QUT.

Does any1 know whats the history between this 2 unis?

QUT kept pushing UQ in the car whenever it turned corners. UQ in turn spilled its Coke over QUT, prompting Dad to "turn this car around". And there was no Wet N Wild for anyone.

I'm a QUT student, so come on UQ lets band together and pay out Griffith.

I agree with IamapersonQ, I am a QUT student, i think the songs funny, they bag us out, we bag them out, its just like high school!

Everyone who takes these things seriously should have a nice warm mug of SHUT THE FUCK UP

@nextos Also, I've done law at UQ for 4 years and only ever heard 1 lecturer mention QUT. So since you don't go to UQ, I wonder how you're so familiar with what the majority of lecturers/staff think? Take my word (or don't, I'm not too fussed either way) that myself and all of my UQ friends couldn't give a shit whether someone goes to UQ, QUT, Griffith, Bond...we all end up in the same place once we graduate. There are a lot of people with their heads up their arses, but you get that anywhere.

[LaFemmeEcarlate]

@nextos I never said "if QUT were as good as UQ maybe you too could"...I said "if QUT had a good law review, they probably WOULD pay out UQ". I use the hypothetical "if" because as far as I know, QUT doesn't have a law revue. I don't know anyone from UQ Law who takes the rivalry seriously and I'm pretty sure I've said that I don't...so seriously, don't take it to heart. If you think all UQ students and staff are pretentious prats who hate QUT, you haven't met many.

[laceyandeva]

Nawwwww, i never realised UQ students were so low! That's so pathetic it's almost cute.

[nextos]

Even the comments saying that this whole thing is a joke, is immediately followed by "if QUT was as good as UQ maybe you too could… ". people can think whatever they want, however I personally think that there are a alot of UQ staff and students that have thier head up their own asses and are thoroughly enjoying the smell.

[nextos]

@LaFemmeEcarlateThe only time I hear about this "rivalry" is whenever I meet anyone from UQ, at all other times in my life no one cares you exist. However the moment I meet someone from UQ all I hear is QUT is shit, UQ is the greatest. And which disturbs me more is that this weird cheerleader attitude is encouraged by the staff at UQ. Honestly the reason it seems like a jab at QUT, is because if it was a joke it wouldn't be going for so many years digging into my skull.

[nextos]

all i hear is a constant whining of a five year old who insists their “etc” is better than the other kids “etc”.

Even your comments saying that this whole thing is a joke, is immediately followed by "if QUT was as good as UQ maybe you too could… ". You can think whatever you want, however I personally think that you and many like you, have your head up your own ass and are thoroughly enjoying the smell.

@nextos seriously dude it's a JOKE. It's not meant to be taken seriously, if you are interpreting it as an honest dig at QUT you're the one with the issue. Most UQ law students have friends from QUT; I know I do. The UQ Law Revue is a *comedy sketch show*...they make fun of our own students, our lecturers etc. as well. Don't think you're so special. If QUT had a good Law Revue, I'm sure they probably would pay out UQ and I'd have a good laugh, because that's what adults do, they take a joke lol
