Can someone please write a song about this - "Testing My Cognition" - to the tune of "Losing My Religion"?
Oh, life
It's bigger
It's bigger than me
And what I can see
The lengths that I will go to
To just hypothesize
Oh no, I test too much
I do not test enough.
That's me in the armchair
That's me in the sample
Testing my cognition
Trying to think fast as you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no, I test too much
I do not test enough
I thought that it was placebo
I thought that it worked for me
I think I thought I tested well
Every trial
Of every pill and powder
I'm blinding interventions
Trying to keep the testing neat
Like a researcher, subject, fool, fool
Oh no, I test too much
I do not test enough.
Consider this
Consider the theory of the century
Consider this, the dose
That got me experimenting, failed
What if all these fantasies come
Flailing around
I've tested too much
(repeated verse)
But p's below alpha
P's below alpha
(repeated verses)
So its not just me that heard "Testing My Cognition" to that tune when I read the post title.
