Lyric sheets: Students at an Amsterdam university can now study Madonna's influence on feminism and sexuality. (To be read with a Dutch accent.)
M.A.(Donna)
All schtudendts musdt wear schtockinks
Met suspendters - if they're able
Budt the universidty schuppliess
Der microphones andt cable
Corsedts may be flauntedt when
We schtudy later rekkordts
Built schtillettos are verboden
As they tendt to maark der blekkboardts
A fieldt-trip is promisedt
Andt der schtudendts hev two choices
Those medt Harlow hair-schtyles
Andt der Betty Boop-type voices
May walk der redt-light district
In der hope of Hankie Pankies
While der resdt go to a coffee schoppe
To meet some spaced-oudt yankees.
Der course will touch on music, film
Anaatomy andt faschion
Budt Sex andt Business Schtudies will
Pe there in greater raation
For a greater undterschtandink
Of Madonna by degrees
It's hardt to beat der landt of laager,
Bicycles andt cheese.
