I LEARNED THIS SONG WHEN I WAS A GIRL SCOUT. IT WAS A GOOD SONG
TO SING WHEN WE WENT ON TRIPS, MAINLY BECAUSE OF ITS LENGTH.
SINCE IT IS SO LONG AND REPETITIOUS, THE FIRST LINE TO EACH
STANZA WILL ONLY BE LISTED AFTER THE SECOND STANZA. THEY ALL
FOLLOW THE SAME FORM AND MELODY. CO
I'M NOT SURE WHAT CAME AFTER THE LAST STANZA, BUT IT USUALLY
ENDED THERE WITH THE WORD "SPLASH".

ON SPRINGFIELD MOUNTAIN
ON SPRINGFIELD MOUNTAIN THERE DID DWELL,
A LOVELY YOUTH; I KNEW HIM WELL.
ONE DAY OUR YOUTH HE DID GO
DOWN TO THE MEADOW FOR TO MOW.
AS HE HAD MOWED HALF ROUND THE FIELD,
AN UGLY SERPENT BIT HIS HEEL.
THEY TOOK HIM HOME TO MOLLY DEAR,
WHICH MADE HIM FEEL SO VERY QUEER.
NOW MOLLY HAD TWO RUBY LIPS,
WITH WHICH THE POISON FOR TO SIP.
BUT MOLLY HAD A ROTTED TOOTH,
AND SO THE POISON KILLED THEM BOTH.

THE LEPRECHAUN SONG
IN A SHADY NOOK ONE MOONLIT NIGHT,
A LEPRECHAUN I SPIED
WITH SCARLET CAP, AND COAT OF GREEN,
A CROOKSKEIN BY HIS SIDE.
'TWAS 'TICK 'TUCK 'TICK HIS HAMMER WENT,
UPON A WEENY SHOE.
OH, I LAUGH TO THINK OF A PURSE OF GOLD,
BUT THE FAIRY WAS LAUGHING TOO.
WITH TIPYTOE STEP AND BEATING HEART,
QUITE SOFTLY I DREW NIGH.
THERE WAS MISCHIEF IN HIS MERRY FACE,
A TWINKLE IN HIS EYE.
HE HAMMERED AND SANG WITH TINY VOICE,
AND DRANK HIS MOUNTAIN DEW.
OH, I LAUGHED TO THINK HE WAS CAUGHT AT LAST,
BUT THE FAIRY WAS LAUGHING TOO.
AS QUICK AS I THOUGHT I SEIZED THE ELF,
"YOUR FAIRY PURSE," I CRIED.
"THE PURSE," HE SAID, "TIS IN YOUR HAND
THAT LADY AT YOUR SIDE."
I TURNED TO LOOK THE ELF WAS OFF,
NOW WHAT WAS I TO DO?
OH, I LAUGHED TO THINK HOW HE FOOLED ME SO,
AND THE FAIRY WAS LAUGHING TOO.

SWIRLIES
WHEN SOMEONE IN THE FRATERNITY STARTS TO ACT TOO UPPITY, IT'S HIS
BIRTHDAY, OR ELSE JUST FOR THE FUN OF IT, WE GIVE HIM A "SWIRLY."
THAT IS WE PICK HIM UP, CARRY HIM INTO THE BATHROOM, PUT HIS HEAD
IN THE TOILET AND FLUSH IT. THIS REQUIRES A NUMBER OF MEN TO
DO AS THE RECIPIENT TENDS TO BE SOMEWHAT RELUCTANT TO GO
AND USUALLY PUTS UP A CONSIDERABLE STRUGGLE.
