...The Sound of His Own Voice, entitled "The Examiners."
The song is a poem by John Whitworth set to music by Mr. Harding (a.k.a. Wesley Stace).
They can parse a Latin sentence; they’re as learned as Plotinus,
They’re as sharp as Ockham’s razor, as subtle as Aquinas,
They define us and refine us with their beta-query-minus,
They’re the wall-constructing Emperors of undiscovered Chinas,
They confine us, then malign us, in the end they undermine us,
They are there, they are there
They are there, the examiners are there

They are there, they are there
