Don’t Plagiarizzle Lyrics by Melvil Dewey

Papercuts

2013

[Chorus]
Ohhhh! You plagiarizzled, haha!
And now you're in big troubizzle
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Like ohhhh...
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Like ohhhh...
[Verse 1]
Plagiarism, let me tell you what it is
Stealing somebody else's ideas
Taking their words and claiming they're your own
Plagiarism, man, it's just wrong
It's cheating, it's stealing, whatcha need another reason?
I knew this kid from class, his name was Steven
He had a paper due on April 17th
He got on the web and started researching
He found an article, it was quite eloquent
And it sounded so good, why write it again?
So he copied and pasted it into his paper
It was word for word, man, verbatim
He didn't cite a source or write a bibliography
Little did he know he was plagiarizing
He took the paper to class the next day
The teacher failed him and all the kids were saying...
[Chorus]
Ohhhh! You plagiarizzled, haha!
And now you're in big troubizzle
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Like ohhhh...
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Like ohhhh...
[Verse 2]
Plagiarism, how do you avoid it?
It's really quite simple, all you gotta do is this:
Give credit where credit is due
Cite your source if it wasn't written by you
You can use quotes or paraphrase
And when you do, cite the author's last name
Write "according to" and then acknowledge the author
Like J.K. Rowling wrote Harry Potter
Now put it down in the bibliography
And make sure you format it correctly
In the MLA citation style
And tell that plagiarism "bye-bye y'all"
Finally to avoid plagiarizzle
Use your own words and be original
Cause if you plagiarize you're only cheating yourself
So speak for yourself and nobody's gonna yell...
[Chorus]
Ohhhh! You plagiarizzled, haha!
And now you're in big troubizzle
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Like ohhhh...
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Don't plagiarizzle, you get into troubizzle
Like ohhhh...
