Plagiarized Paper

(Tune: Paperback Writer)

Plagiarized paper paper paper

Dear professor would you read my essay

Took an hour to write is it worth an "A"?

It's based on a paper someone wrote last fall

And I need an "A" so I'm handing in a plagiarized paper

Plagiarized paper

Some of the text is from the internet

And you'll never trace it, least that's what I bet

Encyclopedias fill in the rest

And I did my best so I'm handing in a plagiarized paper

Plagiarized paper

Plagiarized paper paper paper

I changed a word or two here and there

And I missed the quote key, ask me if I care

Some of the book titles I just made up

And I'm really clever so I'm handing in a plagiarized paper

Plagiarized paper

I can't believe that you wrote a book

That I copied from, I guess I should have looked

I didn't think you would check my source

You say I failed this course for handing in a plagiarized paper

Plagiarized paper

Plagiarized paper plagiarized paper
