Singin' me some post Cambridge Delta Module One Blues

Preparing Module One of the Cambridge DELTA was truly a transforming experience, and I honestly can't wait until Module Two.

But now that the stress of the exam is over, I'm feeling a little emptied out.

No more discourse to analyze, no more definitions to memorize, no more phonetic symbols to transcriptize...

So I just thought I'd a'write me a little blues song about it all. Hope y'all enjoy it.


DELTA Module One Blues

Da DA da da DA
Da DA da da DA

Paper One, Task One
Was lookin’ pretty fun
Left out a definition
Too scared I’d look dumb
Turned out to be the right one
Now I’m feelin’ glum

Da DA da da DA
Da DA da da DA

Paper One, Task Four
I just wrote more and more
Grammar and phonetics
‘Bout spillin’ onto the floor
Laid out 60 points
Feel sure of maybe 24

Da DA da da DA
Da DA da da DA

Paper One, Task Five
It just didn’t jive
Time was a'wastin’
Went into full drive
Hey, got it all finished
I guess I survived.

Da DA da da DA
Da DA da da DA

Went into Paper Two
Feelin’ kinda blue
Thought it was simpler
Just hopin’ that's true
Got it all done with
Wrote a lotta stuff too.

Da DA da da DA
Da DA da da DA

Oh sweet Delta, Delta
You really changed my life
Used to be a great mother
Used to be a good wife
Can’t wait for Module 2 now….

(Drum roll)
To cut up my teachin’ with a knife.
