Tough topic to try to cover, this and I’m not too sure what point I was trying to make or what news story triggered it. Presumably some confusion at a major university somewhere over what to do about drunken students who didn’t know what they had done, with whom and/or how consensual whatever it was might have been.
Mercifully, I don’t think the lyric was used.
_ RAPING DRUNKS IS HARD TO DO _
(To the Tune of “Breaking Up Is Hard To Do”)
INTRO/BACKING REFRAIN THROUGHOUT – COLLEGE DONS
Clear the college town too-tee-too town town,
Send the buggers down doo-dee-doo down down,
Wear a silly gown goo-gee-goo gown gown,
Raping drunks is hard to do.
VERSE 1 – THE BOY
They say our love was not p.c.,
When we were at University;
You’re a girl that I once knew,
For taking pot and sniffing glue.
VERSE 2 – THE GIRL
Remember when we got so tight,
I stayed with you all through the night;
Can’t recall what I went through,
But waking up was hard to do.
MIDDLE BIT – ALTERNATELY
BOY:You know that making love is hard to do,
GIRL:When you’re both as pissed as a newt;
BOY:(looks down) Don’t say that this is me end,
GIRL:Instead of making love I think we may be throwing up again.
VERSE 3 – THE BOY
I beg of U-niversity,
Please don’t add to my adversity,
College court’s a kangaroo,
Cos raping drunks is hard to prove.
OUTRO – COLLEGE DONS
Clear the college town too-tee-too town town,
Send the buggers down doo-dee-doo down down,
Wear a silly gown goo-gee-goo gown gown,
Raping drunks is hard to do.
