YIPPI YAPPAS

I'M ONE OF THE YIPPI YAPPAS AND I'M MIGHTY PROUD OF THAT,
A MERRY COLLEGE FELLOW AND A BROTHER IN PHI KAP,
I'M LOYAL TO MY FRATERNITY AND LIKE THE KNIGHTS OF OLD,
I'LL ALWAYS BE A FAITHFUL SON TO CARDINAL, WHITE, AND GOLD.
PHI KAPPA THETA, HERE'S TO YOUR RENOWN,
PHI KAPPA THETA, HERE'S TO DRINK 'ER DOWN.
AND AS WE GATHER ROUND THE FESTIVE BOARD AS IN THE DAYS OF OLD,
WE'LL TURN OUR GLASSES BOTTOMS UP TO CARDINAL, WHITE, AND GOLD.
AS WE GO MARCHING, AND THE BAND BEGINS TO P-L-A-Y,
YOU CAN HEAR THE PEOPLE SHOUTING, "PHI KAPPA THETA ON PARADE."

Submitter comment: THIS IS ONE OF THE FRATERNITY SONGS FOR PHI KAPPA THETA
FRATERNITY.
