The Ivy League is an athletic conference comprising eight private institutions of higher education in the Northeastern United States. The conference name is also commonly used to refer to those eight schools as a group. The eight institutions are Brown University, Columbia University, Cornell University, Dartmouth College, Harvard University, Princeton University, the University of Pennsylvania, and Yale University. The term Ivy League also has connotations of academic excellence, selectivity in admissions, and social elitism.
The term became official after the formation of the NCAA Division I athletic conference in 1954. The use of the phrase is no longer limited to athletics, and now represents an educational philosophy inherent to the nation's oldest schools. Seven of the eight schools were founded during the United States colonial period; the exception is Cornell, which was founded in 1865. Ivy League institutions, therefore, account for seven of the nine Colonial Colleges chartered before the American Revolution.

The crowd screaming cause they wanna see a prince
So I came tell your bitch to represent
Walk up the steps to condescend a little bit,
Let's get that pedastool built so we can admire it.
God don't we look great in sequins?
At the center of attenion, choking in narcisstic bliss.
Why don't you stay a little? parade around a bit.
Let's make a movie or something, let's found you an outlet.
Cause I'm getting kinda tired of this private school bullshit.
That ivy league swagger is killing it (is killing me)
Chalk up another win on this side of logistics, cause now it's about what we got but we don't give.
God, don't we look great in sequence?
Slow and spinning towards the ground.
Curled up in a burning blanket, choking little cooing sounds.
Why don't you stay a little? parade around a bit.
Let's make a movie or something, let's found you an outlet.
Cause I'm getting kinda tired of this private school bullshit.
That ivy league swagger is killing it (is killing me)
My.?... is... ?
My.?. is placid.
And all that I'm saying,
Is I am fantastic.
My temper is temperate.
My c... ? is... ?
All that I'm saying,
Is I am fantastic.
My spirit is stable.
My will is elastic.
And all that I'm saying,
Is I am fantastic.
Why don't you stay a little? parade around a bit.
Let's make a movie or something, let's found you an outlet.

There she goes with her
Nose in the air.
Funny how
Love can be.
Wonder why she
Pretends I'm not there.
Funny how
Love can be, girl.
Funny how love
Can be.
There she is with
That look in her eye.
Hasn't got time
For me.
Does she know
How it's making me cry?
Funny how love
Can be, girl.
Funny how love
Can be.
What a thing
To happen;
Life without
A friend.
What a thing
To happen;
Funny how true
Love can end.
I can see that she just doesn't care,
How can I make her see?
I'm in love and it just isn't fair.
Funny how love can be, girl,
Funny how love can be.
(vocalizing)
Funny how love can be.
(vocalizing)
There's no one else around
To tell my troubles too
That's why I'm crying
That's why I'm crying
And so I get a little bit lonely
And so I get a little bit sad
Inside, that's why I'm crying
I took a walk around
There's no one that I knew
That's why I'm crying
That's why I'm crying
And so I get a little bit lonely
And so I get a little bit sad
Inside, that's why I'm crying
That's why I'm crying
That's why I'm crying
And so I get a little bit lonely
And so I get a little bit sad
There she goes with her nose in the air
Funny how love can be
Wonder why she pretends I'm not there
Funny how love can be, girl
Funny how love can be
There she is with that look in her eye
Hasn't got time for me
Does she know how it's makin' me cry
Funny how love can be, girl
Funny how love can be
What a thing to happen
Left without a friend
What a thing to happen
Funny how true love can end
I can tell that she just doesn't care
How can I make her see
I'm in love, but it just isn't fair
Funny how love can be, girl
Funny how love can be
Ooh...
Funny how love can be...
