A paper that's a 9

Sung to the tune of "Love potion number 9" by The Clovers

I took my questions to my leader, stressed
I said "I'm fading and I'm quite depressed
She said to me, "You are really in a bind,
She said "What you need is...
A paper that's a 9."

I told her that the scores were really low
No object references, no Lists to grow
She said to me, "Now reader don't you whine
She said "What you need is...
A paper that's a 9."

Searching for a pick-me-up or some kind of treat,
I tried to find a candy, there was nothing to eat,
I scanned the test to see where it would drop the next piece
I close me eyes,
I hold my breath,
I said "Oh please!"

Then all at once it all just seemed so right
I started checking everything in sight
My eyes filled with tears as I added up the line
I jumped to my feet and yelled:
"This paper is a 9!"
