OSAP Bureaucracy
To the tune of Veggie Tales' "Gated Community" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJmkpSOMyUA

INTRO:

There once was a girl
Who went to a school
That charged exorbitantly!
The girl wasn't rich,
So she had to contend
With the OSAP bureaucracy!

REFRAIN:

Can I have my loan?
Can I get my loan?
You said you'd give it to me!
And I need my loan,
'Cause I'm very poor,
And I can't pay tuition fees!

VERSE 1:

Oh, the OSAP bureaucracy's a paradox, you see,
Success depends on schooling, but that schooling isn't free.
And if you don't have money, it's a crummy place to be,
'Cause there aren't a lot of ways that you can finance your degree!

(REFRAIN)

VERSE 2:

Oh, the OSAP bureaucracy is full of cruelty,
The folks in charge act snotty to the folks like you and me.
And if you don't have money, it's a crummy place to be,
'Cause there aren't a lot of ways that you can finance your degree!

(REFRAIN)

VERSE 3 (EXTENDED):

Oh, the OSAP bureaucracy has much formality,
The numbers, forms, and lineups stretch as far as you can see.
And if you don't have money, it's a crummy place to be,
'Cause there aren't a lot of ways that you can finance your degree.
OH, the OSAP bureacracy's dramatic irony,
Forget one tiny detail, and you're stuck financially.
And if you don't have money, it's a crummy place to be,
'Cause there aren't a lot of ways
(Can you help me find a way?)
No, there aren't too many ways that you can
Finance your degree!

HARMONY (CHORUS):

With the OSAP bureau-craaaa-cyyyyy!!!!
