You are failing just the way you are

A song for my failing students, adapted from Bruno Mars - Just The way you are...

Oh, your scripts, your scripts make me look like I’m not teachin’
Your grades, your grades falls perfectly without me tryin'
You don’t understand
And I tell you everyday

Yeah, I know, I know when I motivate you, you won't believe me
And it's so, it's so sad to think that you don't see what I see
But every time you asks me am I passing sir?
I say

When I see your marks
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're failing
Just the way you are

And when you cry
The whole course stops and pause for awhile
'Cause hey, you're failing
Just the way you are

Your wrongs, your wrongs, I could count them all day if you’d let me
Your flops, your flops, you hate but I think it's so scary
You don’t understand
And I tell you everyday

Oh, you know, you know, you know I'd never teach you to fail
If perfect's what you're searching for, then pull up your socks
So don't even bother asking if you going to pass
You know I'll say

When I see your marks
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're failing
Just the way you are

And when you cry
The whole course stops and pause for awhile
'Cause hey, you're failing
Just the way you are

The way you are
The way you are
Hey, you're failing
Just the way you are

When I see your marks
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're failing
Just the way you are

And when you cry
The whole course stops and pause for awhile
'Cause hey, you're failing
Just the way you are, Ye’eh
