Lyrics:
It takes a lot to make it far
To publish in the A E R
With a guy who knows the database
And a welfare model ace

And you’ve got, too many coauthors, too many coauthors
too many coauthors, too many coauthors
too many coauthors, too many coauthors
too many coauthors, too many coauthors

Even more parameters identified
In the moments he derived
And his fixed point algorithm too
Too many coauthors it's true

The market’s tough with too many coauthors
Honey, I think that’s not true
Well, maybe too many coauthors will spoil the broth
But they’ll fill our CV's with so many cites
So many, so many ciiiites

It takes a lot to make it far
For macro questions with micro data
And this paper could be the best
For us to calibrate the IES

And you’ve got, too many coauthors, too many coauthors
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors

It takes a lot to make it far
A uniqueness proof shouldn’t be too hard
And that extra grant will help us, too
Too many coauthors it's true

The market’s tough with too many coauthors
Honey, I think that’s not true
Well, maybe too many Cooks will spoil the broth
But they’ll fill our CV's with so many cites
So many, so many ciiiites

Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors 
Too many coauthors, too many coauthors
