So, as soon as I uploaded a moderate-resolution WMV ver­sion of the video to year12.joahua.com, Google Video decided it was going to approve it. How­ever, it seems the Google ver­sion is pretty poor qual­ity (yes, I uploaded the same ver­sion to both Google and my own site), so if you want qual­ity it’s best to go with the year12.joahua source — though the audio qual­ity on both of them seems to be about the same.

The Google Video ver­sion will play in your browser (using Flash Video).
The hosted Win­dows Media ver­sion can be saved to your com­puter (right-click, “Save Tar­get As…” or “Save Link As…”, depend­ing on the browser).

The Win­dows Media ver­sion is ~23MiB, so I’d assume the Google ver­sion will be (prob­a­bly sig­nif­i­cantly) less than that.

Now with added lyrics!

(Thanks to Ben, though I don’t know I agree with the end bit, and think he’s hashed out sec­tions where it’s entirely pos­si­ble noth­ing was even said :P)

I’ve had Mrs Christie for three years,
When she speaks it’s like music to my ears.
Hav­ing her has been such a blast,
Marcelo told me that he wants to touch her arse.

I started out with Oud then Sinovich,
Year 12 Eng­lish proved to be quite a bitch.
You may think you’re pretty far from first,
But don’t worry Tyrone will always be the worst.

Always try to steal my essays from you,
’Coz when it comes to Eng­lish I just don’t have a clue,
And now it’s com­ing down to HSC,
I’m going to need the Lord to pray for me.

I went down to class just the other day,
And I had some­thing really witty to say.
I was just about to speak but then just my luck
{the part where} ? except Gar­rett never shuts up.

Always have to steal my essays from the ‘net,
Here good look­ing dont know what to do,
And now it’s com­ing down to HSC,
I’m going to need the Lord to pray for me.

We’re going to take it down a bit.
(Hums)

So let’s get down to Mod­ule A, B and C.
Oooo, Ondaatje’s mak­ing love to me.
Oh baby, baby, won’t you come, come with me,
To an imag­i­nary jour­ney on pages sev­enty two and sev­enty three.

When I get that feel­ing, I need tex­tual heal­ing,
Ondaatje is mak­ing me feel, so damn fine.
The syn­tax lit­er­ary tech­niques and devices all show­ing,
Shake­speare is get­ting my juices flowing.

I’m going down to Kubla Khan, (Oooooo yeah)
And sweet­heart I want you to come, (You come)
When I take that Coleridge off the shelf,
Damn, he makes me want to touch myself.

When I get that feel­ing, I need tex­tual heal­ing,
Ondaatje is mak­ing me feel, so damn fine.
The syn­tax lit­er­ary tech­niques and devices all show­ing,
Shake­speare is get­ting my juices flowing.

(Tex­tual, tex­tual, tex­tual heal­ing,
Tex­tual, tex­tual, tex­tual.) x2

When I get that feel­ing, I need tex­tual heal­ing,
Ondaatje is mak­ing me feel so damn fine.
The syn­tax lit­er­ary tech­niques and devices all show­ing,
Shake­speare is get­ting my juices flowing.

Tex­tual, tex­tual, tex­tual heal­ing,
Tex­tual, tex­tual, textual.

Now, who wants to time­code it for me?! Cap­tions await! ;-)
