This academic factory

Through corridors, refectories
And files you must follow, leave
This academic factory
Find me in the matinee
The dark of the matinee
Is better in the matinee
The dark of matinee
Find me and follow me
Through corridors, refectories
And files you must follow, leave
This academic factory
Find me in the matinee
The dark of the matinee
Is better in the matinee
The (8)________ of the matinee is mine
