For you must get your Ph.D.

To the tune of "I am the monarch of the sea" from H.M.S. Pinafore by Gilbert and Sullivan

For you must get your Ph.D.
It is of great necessity!
It will your status quite enhance

(as it will his T.A.s and his
graduate studants
his T.A.s and his graduate studants)

When budget cuts I’ve spied
I budget-setters chide
and pursue those funds with di-li-gance

(to support his T.A.s and his
graduate studants
his T.A.s and his graduate studants)


As funding breezes blow
I’m generally in the know
and modify how I write my grants!

(and so do his T.A.s and his
graduate studants
and so do his T.A.s and his
graduate studants
his T.A.s whom he doesn’t
quite reckon by the dozens
and studants!)
