Subject: RE: Parodies-Non-Intellectual
I work at a high school and we have a group who writes parodies and enterains at special events. We did this one a couple of years ago for the entire district at our beginning of the year inservice.

Stayin' Alive

Well, you can tell by the way that I use my chalk
I can still teach a class while my students talk.
The media's loud and my head throbs.
They're always saying we aren't doing our job.

Now it's all right, it's OK,
But we can't look the other way.
We must try to understand
Society's effects on our children.

At the elementary, or the middle or the high school
You're stayin' alive, keep stayin' alive.
Feel the mandates comin'
The Congress is a hummin'
Stayin' alive, keep stayin' alive.

Ah, ha, ha, ha
Stayin' alive, keep stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha,
Stayin' alive. *

Well, now the pay is low and the stress is high,
But we all know that we'll get by.
We've wings of knowledge on our shoes,
We'll meet the challenge and we won't lose.

You know it's all right, it's OK,
We'll live to see another day,
While we all try to implement
The state's wishes for improvement.

At the elementary, or the middle or the high school
You're stayin' alive, keep stayin' alive.
Feel the vouchers comin'
Business is a hummin'
Stayin' alive, keep stayin' alive.

Ah, ha, ha...(Repeat from beginning to *)

From out of nowhere
Somebody help us!

Ah, ha, ha, ha stayin' alive, keep stayin' alive. (Fade)
