Hello muddah, hello faddah

[NTB]

:music:Camp is very entertaining
And they say we'll have some fun if it stops raining.

I went hiking with Joe Spivy
He developed poison ivy
You remember Leonard Skinner
He got ptomaine poisoning last night after dinner.

All the counselors hate the waiters
And the lake has alligators
And the head coach wants no sissies
So he reads to us from something called Ulysses.

How I don't want this should scare ya
But my bunkmate has malaria
You remember Jeffrey Hardy
They're about to organize a searching party.

Take me home, oh muddah, faddah
Take me home, I hate Granada
Don't leave me out in the forest where
I might get eaten by a bear.
Take me home I promise I will not make noise
Or mess the house with other boys.
Oh please don't make me stay
I've been here one whole day.

Dearest faddah, darling muddah,
How's my precious little bruddah
Let me come home, if you miss me
I would even let Aunt Bertha hug and kiss me.

Wait a minute, it's stopped hailing.
Guys are swimming, guys are sailing
Playing baseball, gee that's better
Muddah, faddah kindly disregard this letter.:music:

And what am I doing when this starts playing? looking for some new camping / hiking gear, of course

I've actually had camping trips something like this; perhaps I should take it as a sign? Nah...

I'd say it's a sign of *something*...

I see you're beginning to see the influence of Dance of the Hours by Amilcare Ponchielli.

That one? I just googled the lyrics after the song was over because there was a part I wasn't certain about. This is what came up.

sorry missed it.

We sang this off an overhead projector, with tape playing in the background, when I was in 3rd grade.

No problem. Just wanted to make sure

They played it on the bus when my entire sixth grade class took a week-long trip to a YMCA camp
