You’ve all heard the Miley Cyrus song “Party in the USA.” It is literally everywhere. There is nowhere you can escape it. Just to make this tune even more ubiquitous around the halls, we’ve developed an alternate version. Presenting now, for the first time ever in complete form, the lyrics to “Party in the Country Day.”  (You’re welcome.)

Party in the Country Day

Hopped out the car in the parking lot

With my Uggs and a Northface on

Welcome to the land of white and blue

We’re the class of 2010

Ran to the door with my Starbucks coffee

Administration ready to greet me

Everybody seems so crazy

Senioritis makin’ us lazy

My tummy’s hurting cuz I didn’t eat breakfast

No more bagels and I’m so mad

Then Vondale turns on the radio

And the Alma Mater’s on

And the Alma Mater’s on

And the Alma Mater’s on

(Chorus)

So I go to C band singing this song, thank God B drops today

Raisin’ my hand like “Yeah”

Flippin’ my pen like “Yeah”

I got my hands up

This day’s been long

I know I’m gonna be okay

Yeah

It’s a Party in the Country Day

Yeah

It’s a Party in the Country Day

Get to the game with my Tribal Pass

We’ve gotta beat Summit now

Like “Who’s that team with such big dreams; they gotta be playoff bound”

So fun with my class all around me

It’s definitely such a neon party

‘Cause all I see are bright colors

And this game is so close

My tummy’s turnin’

And I’m feeling kinda nervous

Too much pressure

And we can’t miss

And then Rameez drops two free throws

And the Alma Mater’s on

And the Alma Mater’s on

And the Alma Mater’s on

(Chorus)

So I go to C band singing this song, thank God B drops today

Raisin’ my hand like “Yeah”

Flippin’ my pen like “Yeah”

I got my hands up

This day’s been long

I know I’m gonna be okay

Yeah

It’s a Party in the Country Day

Yeah

It’s a Party in the Country Day

Feel like bustin’ out of school

Feel like breaking all the rules

Honor Code stops me every time

Today is cookie day and I feel alright!

(Chorus)

So I go to C band singing this song, thank God B drops today

Raisin’ my hand like “Yeah”

Flippin’ my pen like “Yeah”

I got my hands up

This day’s been long

I know I’m gonna be okay

Yeah

It’s a Party in the Country Day

Yeah

It’s a Party in the Country Day

(Na, na na na na na)

(Chorus)

Yeah, So I go to C band singing this song, thank God B drops today.

Raisin’ my hand like “Yeah”

Flippin’ my pen like “Yeah”

I got my hands up

This day’s been long

I know I’m gonna be okay

Yeah

It’s a Party in the Country Day

Yeah

It’s a Party in the Country Day!
