We're coming, we're coming, See how things come our way, And all the world will soon Pass under Senior sway. Now come the days When we face the world so wide, To do our best, Then no matter what betide, Still we do sigh For the days that will come no more, Although the call we answer gladly, QO, Senior! ---G.
