The Lyrics
The day before the Purdue University 49th annual Grand Prix race, a story in the Exponent appeared that said "Drinking overshadows Grand Prix festivies". And I was like, NO! This is what I've been thinking for years, and now it shows up? So then I said I had to write a parody explaining the truth. This song is about what most Purdue students do on Grand Prix Weekend (most, not ALL) and how they forget that there's a race going on and get wasted instead. Be smart, not stupid...or just be sober.
Baby, baby, it looks like you're gonna fail
Baby, baby, it looks like you're gonna fail
You shouldn't take the wheel, because you got drunk, drive and fail
CHORUS
Oh, they are all drunk driving, then they fail
They are just drunk driving, then they fail
You see 'em drunk driving, then they fail
They party drunk driving, then they fail
It's all just drunk driving, then they fail away
Marty's over here, my gosh, I think he's gonna bail
He's chugging stuff down and now he's just gonna bail
He's getting naked too, yep he's all drunk drive and fail
(Repeat Chorus)
The race is a race, but for students it's all about the ale
Yes, there's a race, but only people care about the ale
Partying til they collapse, being drunk drive and fail
Jack and Jill run toward the track down the hill
Case of beers in both hands, wine and whiskey for the fill
You know what I think? They're gonna get drunk, drive and fail
(Chorus til end)
Baby, baby, it looks like you're gonna fail
You shouldn't take the wheel, because you got drunk, drive and fail
CHORUS
Oh, they are all drunk driving, then they fail
They are just drunk driving, then they fail
You see 'em drunk driving, then they fail
They party drunk driving, then they fail
It's all just drunk driving, then they fail away
Marty's over here, my gosh, I think he's gonna bail
He's chugging stuff down and now he's just gonna bail
He's getting naked too, yep he's all drunk drive and fail
(Repeat Chorus)
The race is a race, but for students it's all about the ale
Yes, there's a race, but only people care about the ale
Partying til they collapse, being drunk drive and fail
Jack and Jill run toward the track down the hill
Case of beers in both hands, wine and whiskey for the fill
You know what I think? They're gonna get drunk, drive and fail
(Chorus til end)
