Bright College Days - Tom Lehrer[00:00:00]

Thank you[00:00:00]

For my first encore[00:00:01]

I'd like to turn to a type of Song[00:00:02]

To a type of song that people[00:00:05]

Like myself find ourselves subjected[00:00:06]

To with increasing frequency as time goes on [00:00:08]

And that is the college alma mater [00:00:11]

You'll find yourself at a reunion[00:00:13]

Of grads and old undergrads [00:00:15]

And eh somebody will start[00:00:20]

Croaking out one of these things and[00:00:24]

Everyone will gradually join in [00:00:26]

Each in his own key of course until the place is[00:00:28]

Just soggy with nostalgia [00:00:32]

Well a typical such song might be called[00:00:35]

Bright College Days[00:00:37]

And might go like this[00:00:39]

Bright college days oh carefree days that fly[00:00:51]

To the we sing with our glasses[00:00:55]

Raised on high[00:00:57]

Let's drink a toast as each of us recalls[00:01:04]

Ivy-covered professors in ivy-covered halls[00:01:08]

Turn on the spigot[00:01:16]

Pour the beer and swig it[00:01:18]

And gaudeamus igit-ur[00:01:19]

Here's to parties we tossed[00:01:25]

To the games that we lost[00:01:27]

We shall claim that we won them some day[00:01:29]

To the girls young and sweet[00:01:32]

To the spacious back seat[00:01:34]

Of our roommate's beat up Chevrolet[00:01:36]

To the beer and benzedrine[00:01:39]

To the way that the dean[00:01:41]

Tried so hard to be pals with us all[00:01:43]

To excuses we fibbed[00:01:46]

To the papers we cribbed[00:01:48]

From the genius who lived down the hall[00:01:49]

To the tables down at Morey's[00:01:52]

Wherever that may be[00:01:56]

Let us drink a toast to all we love the best[00:01:59]

We will sleep through all the lectures[00:02:03]

And cheat on the exams[00:02:06]

And we'll pass and be forgotten with the rest[00:02:09]

Oh soon we'll be out amid the cold world's strife[00:02:14]

Soon we'll be sliding down the razor blade of life[00:02:22]

Ready[00:02:38]

But as we go our sordid sep'rate ways[00:02:42]

We shall ne'er forget the thou golden college days[00:02:46]

Hearts full of youth[00:02:52]

Hearts full of truth[00:02:53]

Six parts gin to one part vermouth[00:02:54]
