Premiered at InOOBriated (3/13/10)

Yeah
Yeah Im up at Waterman, now Im down on Thayer
Right next to a hobo, I look up in the air.
Im a Brown student, and if I can study here,
I can study anywhere, yeah the buildings really square.
I used to work in Friedman, all of my pre-medicals
Right there in the basement, brought me back ten decibels.
Took it to the top floor, fourteenth story
Catch me in the stairwell takin shots of Captain Morgy.
Cruisin' through the clusters, off white bagel,
Took a rolly chair from someone elses table.
Nerds so nervous you can practically feel it.
Will I watch your laptop? No, Ill just steal it.
Naked donut run time, I got my donuts,
But its super cold here - looks like I have no nuts.
Its always cold here, like a super freeze G
Tell by the shrinkage that I'm most definitely in...

The Sci Li
Concrete building thats made of concrete
Theres nothing thats fun here
You're in the Sci Li
The Science Center is brand new,
Fluorescent lights will tire you
Youre in the Sci Li, Sci Li,
Sci Li.

These lights are blinding, and the bathrooms do stank
But I head to the Scili cause its soulja boi I crank




Got a problem set due for advanced computer sci
got so many calculators that they call me TI
Flash my harddrive cuz it attracts all the honeys,
Yea I drop so many paw prints
Youd think I was printing money
A cute coed gives me a real sly greeting,
Im dropping you a prospect, better give me a meeting
Getting back to work even though shes a knockout,
Only got 15 minutes til my computer logs out
Gmail the lab partner, got a big project,
Gonna wrap that shit up just like East Side Pockets
You know Im even nerdier than Michael Cera,
Enter all my data then I calculate my error,
All this hocus pocus makin my head spin,
Whoa, Im losing all my focus, better slip me a Riddalin.

The Sci Li
Concrete building thats made of concrete
Theres nothing thats fun here
You're in the Sci Li
The Science Center is brand new,
Fluorescent lights will tire you
Youre in the Sci Li, Sci Li,
Sci Li.

For the past 5 days Ive had the sci li on lock,
So just to switch it up I think Ill head to the rock.
Four stories high, two stories deep

Absolute quiet room, dont make a peep
Readin periodicals, sittin on couches

Ergonomic chairs to eliminate slouches
How am I to work in these big armchairs?
Im typing on the laptop and an outlets rare.
Dropping all my papers and my pencils outta lead
No calculations cause my calculators dead!
No ones doing math here, what is the point
I asked for spare batteries and they passed me a joint
Tried to grab a bagel, but the guys like dude,

gotta stop you right there, no outside food.
Some kids talking in the lobby on the phone,
Gotta get out, you know Im never alone in the

The Sci Li
Concrete building thats made of concrete
Theres nothing thats fun here
You're in the Sci Li
If your work is like damn,
Open til the AM.
Youre in the Sci Li, Sci Li,
Sci Li.
