APPM BLUES

Stevie Mac and his FMG
That's the stuff that's been plaguing me
Dr. Tom, he's an old FOSL
Watching me suffer's how he gets his thrills
Jerry B's PDEs
Always brings me to my knees

Harvey Segur's making waves
That'll wash me down into my grave
Calm cool Jem she's dressed in black
Her stochastic sims nearly broke my back
Dr. Li's analysis
Is certainly something I won't miss

Dr. Julien just loves them flows
They're dealing me my fatal blows
Mark and Ziad make such a team
It's they're solitons that are a bit extreme
Dr. Curry says,
        ``Come to the dark side.''
But that Newton's method just gives me hives

Dr. Meiss is one bad cat
His chaos theory done left me flat
Greg Beylkin really gets around
And his FFTs really put me down
Williamson and his Markov Chains
One more link will drive me insane

Dr. Easton is so much fun
Those Poicare maps got me on the run
Adam Norris works hard every night
Never let's his students out of sight
Bengt Fornberg I have one thing to say
What's a radial basis function anyway?

Amy Biesterfield teaching stats
Might as well let a black cat cross my path
Dr. Anne says she'll give me a hand
But beating me with more stats is in her plan
Is there any place that I can turn
Without another prof putting on the hurt

All the students of APPM
Our profs claim to help us in the end
But we all know the painful truth
It doesn't take a super sleuth
All these Drs get great pleasure
By watching us crack underneath the pressure

Holiday time is here again
And I'm just hanging with all my friends
I wish happiness to everyone
But I just can't have any fun
People ask me what's the news
I just got APPM blues
