Senior School Survival

Hey guys!,

Remember the classic “If You’re Happy and You Know It” song we all grew up singing?

Well…

I decided to give the classic song a little Senior School makeover.

Here’s what “If You’re Happy and You Know It” would sound like if it were written by a very tired student 😭:

If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands! 

If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands! 

If you’re happy and you know it, and you really want to show it,

 If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands!  

If you’re happy and you know it, stay in bed!

If you’re happy and you know it, stay in bed!

If you’re happy and you know it, getting up will surely blow it;

If you’re happy and you know it, stay in bed!  

If you’re happy and you know it, check your grades!

If you’re happy and you know it, and your marks don’t completely blow it,

If you’re happy and you know it, check your grades!  

If you’re happy and you know it, check your grades!  

If you’re happy and you know it, fake a cough! 

 If you’re happy and you know it, fake a cough! 

 If you’re happy and you know it, and your homework doesn’t show it, 

 If you’re happy and you know it, fake a cough!  

If you’re happy and you know it, do not cry!

If you’re happy and you know it, do not cry!

If you’re happy and you know it, stressing will surely ruin it,  

If you’re happy and you know it, do not cry!  

 If you’re happy and you know it, mute the chat! 

 If you’re happy and you know it, mute the chat! 

 If you’re happy and you know it, because someone keeps going “where you at?” 

 If you’re happy and you know it, mute the chat!  

 If you’re happy and you know it, skip the test!  

 If you’re happy and you know it, skip the test!  

 If you’re happy and you know it, and your brain has failed the quest, 

 If you’re happy and you know it, skip the test!  

 If you’re happy and you know it, you got real friends!

If you’re happy and you know it, you got real friends!

If you’re happy and you know it, having fake friends will surely break you,

If you’re happy and you know it, you got real friends!  

 If you’re happy and you know it, survive the week! 

 If you’re happy and you know it, survive the week! 

 If you’re happy and you know it, and your teachers really mean it, 

 If you’re happy and you know it, survive the week!  

And there you have it — the Senior School version of “If You’re Happy and You Know It”! 😂

Because apparently, being happy in senior school means surviving homework, tests, grades, group chats, friendship drama, and somehow making it to the end of the week. (And by the way guys please don’t listen to the advice given in the 7th stanza! 😅)

If you’re a student, you probably understood at least one of these verses a little too well. 😭

So remember: stay strong, survive the week, and if all else fails… stay in bed. 💀
