Thank you for my first encore-歌词

Thank you for my first encore

I'd like to turn to a type of

Song

The type of song

That people like myself

Find ourselves subjected to

With increasing frequency as

Time goes on and that is

The college alma mate

You'll find yourself at a reunion

Of all grads and old undergrads

And eh somebody will start proking

Out one of these things and everyone

Will gradually join in

Each in his own key of course

Untill the place is just soggy with

Nostalgia well a typical such

Song might be called bright

College days and might

Go like this

Bright college days oh

Carefree days that fly

To thee we sing with our

Glasses raised on high

Let's drink a toast as

Each of us recalls

Ivy covered professors

In ivy covered halls

Turn on the spigot

Pour the beer and swig it

And gaudeamus igitur

Heres to parties we tossed

To the games that we lost

We shall claim that

We won them some day

To the girls young and sweet

To the spacious back seat

Of our roommates beat up chevrolet

To the beer and benzedrine

To the way that the dean

Tried so hard to be

Pals with us all

To excuses we fibbed

To the papers we cribbed

From the genius who

Lived down the hall

To the tables down at moreys

Wherever that may be

Let us drink a toast to

All we love the best

We will sleep through

All the lectures

And cheat on the exams

And well pass and be

Forgotten with the rest

Oh soon well be out amid

The cold worlds strife

Soon well be sliding down

The razor blade of life

Ready

But as we go our sordid seprate ways

We shall neer forget thee

Thou golden college days

Hearts full of youth

Hearts full of truth

Six parts gin to one part vermouth
