STAND HIM IN THE CORNER

STAND HIM IN THE CORNER AND HOLD HIM TIGHT LIKE THIS,
PUT YOUR ARMS AROUND HIS NECK AND ON HIS LIPS A KISS,
'CAUSE HE LOVES ME,
AND IF HE STARTS TO MURMUR AND IF HE STARTS TO SHY,
JUST TELL HIM IT'S THE SACRED SEAL OF OUR DEAR SIGMA-TRI.
SO I STOOD HIM IN THE CORNER AND HELD HIM TIGHT LIKE THIS,
I PUT MY ARMS AROUND HIS NECK AND ON HIS LIPS A KISS,
'CAUSE HE LET ME,
THEN HE STARTED TO MURMUR AND THEN HE STARTED TO SHY,
AND NOW WE HAVE A LEGACY TO OUR DEAR SIGMA-TRI.

Submitter comment: THIS IS A SORORITY "FUN" SONG. IT IS NOT TRADITIONAL AND
