Chorus:
"I wuv you, I wuv you," said the little
blue man, and scared me right out of my wits.
"I wuv you", he loved me said the little
blue man, and scared me right out of my wits.
I hurried back to my apartment, I rushed
in and I closed the door,
But there on the desk stood the little
blue man, who started to tell me once more..
(Chorus)
For weeks after that I was haunted,
tho no one could see him but me,
Right by my side stood the little blue
man, where ever I happened to be.
(Chorus)
One evening in wild desperation, I
rushed to a rooftop in town,
And over the side I pushed the little
blue man, who sang to me on the way down
(Chorus)
I whispered "Thank goodness that’s over",
I smiled as I hurried outside,
But there on the street stood the little
blue man, (sing this part very slowly and sadly) "I don't wuv you
any more!"
(Last verse)
So remember if somebody loves you, treat
them honestly, faithful and true
Or the next thing you know it will happen
to you, and you will be heartbroken, too!
HERE WE ARE, ALTOGETHER
Here we are, altogether
As we sing our song joyfully
Here we are, altogether
As we pray we'll always be.
Join we now as friends, and celebrate
The sisterhood we share, all as one.
Keep the fire burning, kindle it with care
As we all join in and sing.
Chorus: Catalina, Madelina, Lupen Steina
Waddle, and a Hogan Logan Bogan was her name.
She had two teeth in her mouth, one
pointed north and the other pointed south.(Chorus)
Her ears stuck out like sails on a boat,
Her adams apple wobbled up and down her throat,(Chorus)
Her feet were flat like a bathroom mat,
I don't know how they got like that,(Chorus)
Her nose was long like a bathroom hose,
I don't know how the rest of it goes!!!
Shorts
(Sung to the tune of "Do Your Ears Hang
Low")
Do your shorts hang low
Do they touch below the knee
Can you pull 'em up to here and they
still go down to there
Can you sit cross-legged and still not
feel naked
Do you shorts hang low
Ghost Chickens in the Sky
(tune is Ghost Riders in the Sky)
A Chicken farmer went out one dark and
dreary day.
He rested by the coop as he went along
his way.
When all at once a rotten egg hit him
in the eye.
It was the sight he dreaded: Ghost Chickens
in the Sky!
Chorus:
Bok, Bok, Bok, Bok.
Bok, Bok, Bok, Bok.
Ghost Chickens in the Sky!
The Farmer had raised chickens since
he was 24,
Workin’ for the Colonel for 30 years
or more,
Killing all those chickens and sending
them to fry.
Now they want revenge….Ghost Chickens
in the sky.
Chorus
Their feet were black and shiny. Their
eyes were burning red.
They had no meat or feathers. These
chickens all were dead.
They picked the farmer up and he died
by the claw.
They cooked him extra crispy, and ate
him with cole slaw.
Chorus
"Help me, help me, help me!" she said,
"'fore the hunter will shoot me dead."
"Come, little rabbit, come with me,
Happy we will be. Tee hee!"
Mormon, Mormon, Mormon, Mormon
Mormon, Mormon, Mormon, Mormon
I am a Mormon girl
I wear my hair in curls
I wear my skirts way down to my knees
I wear my Daddy's shirts
I am the biggest flirt
Oh how I love those Mormon boys!
A man without a Mormon girl
Is like a ship without a sail
It's like a boat without a rudder
It's like a fish without a tail.
A man without a Mormon girl
Is like a wreck upon the sand
There's only one thing worse in this
universe
And that's a Mormon girl - what?
I said a Mormon girl- what?
I said a Mormon girl without a man-
We ought to know!
Chorus:
All I want is a man who is loaded
All I want is a man who is loaded
With money, money
Loaded with money;
Loaded with money, money
Loaded with money.
I don't care if he's short, fat or tall
I don't care if he's no man at all.
(chorus)
I don't care if he's as stiff as a
board
I don't care if he's headed to the morgue.
(chorus)
I don't car if he's dumb as an ox,
Just as long as he's got precious rocks.

Look at my smile; isn't it great?
Wouldn't you think that I'd have a date?
Lookin' at me, yeah, you'd think,
"She's got everything."
Look at my clothes; look at my face.
Just once I'd like to go to a nice place.
Fast-food and dollar matinees-They're
not everything.
I've got hairspray and makeup aplenty;
I've used toothpaste and mouthwash galore.
Wanna go Dutch? I've got a twenty.
But who cares? No big deal; I want more.
I wanna be where the elders are.
I want one for my eternal companion-One
who's not afraid of...
What's that word again? Oh...commitment.
In institute class you don't get too
far;
Dates are required for real romancin'.
Hopin' for an engagement...
What's the word again? Ring!
A guy who is fun, a guy who is cute,
A guy who would look real good in a
suit.
I'm really great; why don't I date?
I need a man!
What would I give if I could live in
Salt Lake City?
What would I pay to spend a day on temple
grounds?
Betcha they'd call if they weren't all
just so intimidated.
Sweet young maiden-sick of waitin'-
Ready for more!
And ready to know what the couples know.
Ask'em my questions and get some answers.
What is a gentleman and why is he...
What's the word? Extinct!?
Why can't they think and see me now?
I am a woman worth more than eight cows!!
I'm really great; why don't I date?
I NEED A MAN!!

He had ten thousand men.
He marched them up to the top of the

The noble Captain Kirk,
He had 500 men.
He beamed them up to the Enterprise,
And he beamed down again.

And when they're down, they're down,
And when they're only halfway up,
They're nowhere to be found.

[Continue this pattern throughout the
song.]
I looked at him
He looked at me
I sized up him
He sized up me
He says to me
Why don't you run
I see you ain't
Got any gun
I said to him
That's a good idea
So come on feet
Let's get out of here
And so I ran
Away from there
But right behind
Me was that bear
But ahead of me
There was a tree
A great big tree
Oh, Glory Be!
But the lowest branch
Was ten feet up
I'd have to trust
My luck to jump
And so I jumped
Into the air
But I missed that branch
A way up there
Now don't you fret
Now don't you frown
'Cause I caught that branch
On the way back down
That's all there is
There ain't no more
Unless I meet
That bear once more
On mules we find two legs behind,
and two we find before;
We stand behind before we find,
what the two behind
be for.
When we're behind the two behind,
we find what these
be for;
So stand before the two behind,
and behind the two
before

I come from Alabama,
With my banjo on my knee;
I'm goin' to Louisiana,
My true love for to see.
It rained all night the day I left,
The weather it was dry;
The sun so hot I froze to death;
Susanna, don't you cry.

me;
I've come from Alabama,
With my banjo on my knee.
Oh, Susanna, oh, don't you cry for

With my banjo on my knee.
I had a dream the other night,
When everything was still;
I thought I saw Susanna A-commin' down
the hill.
The buckwheat cake was in her mouth,
The tear was in her eye;
Says I, I'm commin' from the South;
Susanna, don't you cry.

I stuck my feet out of the window,
Next morning my neighbors were dead.
Bring back, bring back,
Oh, bring back my neighbors to me, to
me.
Bring back, bring back,
Oh, bring back my neighbors to me.

I wear my pink pajamas in the summer
when it's hot.
I wear my flannel nighties in the winter
when it's not.
And sometimes in the springtime, and
sometimes in the fall,
I jump between the sheets with nothing
on at all.
CHORUS:
Glory, glory, Hallelujah;
Glory, glory, what's it to ya.
Balmy breezes blowing through ya,
With nothing on at all.

The biscuits that they have here
They say are mighty fine,
But one rolled off the table
And killed a friend of mine.
Chorus:
Oh, I don't want no more of Girl's Camp
Life!
Gee, Ma I wanna go home.
The staffers that they have here
The say are mighty fine,
The one that teaches swimming
He looks like Frankenstein.
The chicken here at Girl's Camp,
They say is mighty fine,
But once two drumsticks got up,
And started beating time.
THE COCOA AT THE GRLS CAMP
THEY SAY IT'S MIGHTY FINE
IT LOOKS LIKE MUDDY WATER
AND TASTES LIKE TURPENTINE
THE BOYS AT THE GIRLS CAMP
THEY SAY THEY'RE MIGHTY FINE
THEY'RE EITHER UNDER 8
OR OVER 99
THE LEADERS AT THE GIRLS CAMP
THEY SAY THEY'RE MIGHTY FINE
I SAW ONE WITHOUT MAKE-UP
SHE LOOKED LIKE FRANKINSTEIN

Eidelweiss, Eidelweiss
Every morning you greet me
Small and white,
Clean and bright,
You look happy to meet me.
Blossom of snow
May you bloom and grow,
Bloom and grow forever,
Eidelweiss, Eidelweiss,
Bless my homeland forever.
O Lord my God!
When I in awesome wonder,
Consider all the worlds Thy hands have
made.
I see the stars, I hear the rolling
thunder,
Thy power throughout the universe displayed.
Chorus:
Then sings my soul, my savior God to
Thee,
How great thou art!
How great thou art!
Then sings my soul, my savior God to
Thee,
How great thou art!
How great thou art!
When through the woods and forest
glades I wander,
I hear the birds sing sweetly in the
trees;
When I look down from lofty mountain
grandure
And hear the brook and feel the gentle
breeze;
Chorus
But when I think that God, his Son not
sparing,
Sent him to die, I scarce can take it
in,
That on the cross my burden gladly bearing
He bled and died to take away my sin;
Chorus
When Christ shall come, with shout of
acclamation,
And take me home, what joy shall fill
my heart!
Then I shall bow in humble adoration
And there proclaim, "My God, how
great thou art!"
Chorus
As I went walking, that ribbon of highway
I saw above me that endless skyway
I saw below that golden valley.
This land was made for you and me.
This land is your land, this land is
my land.
From California to the New York Island
From the Redwood forest to the Gulf
Stream waters.
This was made for your and me.
I saw a sign that said "No Trespassing."
And on the other side, that sign said
nothing.
And all around me a voice was calling
"That sign was made for you and me."
This land is your land, this land is
my land.
From California to the New York Island
From the Redwood forest to the Gulf
Stream waters.
This was made for your and me.
Do your ears hang low?
Do they wobble to and fro?
Can you tie them in a knot?
Can you tie them in a bow?
Can you throw them over your shoulder
Like a continental soldier?
Do your ears hang low?
Do your ears flip-flop?
Can you use them for a mop?
Are they stringy at the bottom?
Are they curly at the top?
Can you use them for a swatter?
Can you use them for a blotter?
Do your ears flip-flop?
Do your ears hang high?
Do they reach up to the sky?
Do they droop when they're wet?
Do they stiffen when they're dry?
Can you semaphore your neighbor
With a minimum of labor?
Do your ears hang high?
Do your ears hang wide?
Do they flap from side to side?
Do they wave in the breeze
From the slightest little sneeze?
Can you soar above the nation
With a feeling of elation?
Do your ears h
