(to burn off excess creative juices, we write songs at the 11th hour
of paper submissions.  Here's the one that came about for this paper).

Parody of "Volcano" from Jimmy Buffett

by Martha Mercaldi & Mark Oskin

yeah I don't know,
I don't know,
I don't know if this paper's a-gonna go, when Friday shows

Let me say
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know if this paper's a-gonna go, when Friday shows

Martha is writing, as fast as she will
simulations running, lets hope a little
cluster running nice and hot
pretty soon it'll make me data I hope a lot

Now Let me say,
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know if this paper's a-gonna go, when Friday shows

Now Martha says to me,
Mark you better fix your bibs!
Before I come down there and delete your glibs
pretty soon it'll make me data or perhaps not

Now Let me say,
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know if this paper's a-gonna go, when Friday shows

No time to ah count them pages!
Because we have too many sages,
When we're done we hope there's rum!
And not to worry, Friday will soon come

Now Let me say,
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know if this paper's a-gonna go, when Friday shows

One more now
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know if this paper's a gonna go, when Friday shows

'Cause I don't wanna land in the reject bin,
I don't wanna land in the bottom row,
I don't wanna land in no PC wasteland,
I wanna see my reviewers glow

I don't wanna miss the review committee
... or the big submission date.
I don't wanna lose my friends and family
... or to lose my san-i-ty.

I do wanna go to San Diego!
I don't wanna end with no data today.
I don't want to hear no I-a-told-ya
Because I got a lot to say

Now Let me say,
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know if this paper's a-gonna go, when Friday shows

One more now
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know if this paper's a gonna go, when Friday shows
