In the evening when the gong has plunked, We hear the name of each that flunked, And added to this sorrowful list, The bad boys' names are never missed. I knew right well there'd be some pep Because our yell leaders were there. Yep, Both Ed and Dee adorned the list, And Mutt Pratt's name was never missed Lol and behold! Roast pork, quoth he, And then he read my name with glee. At first I tried to run a bluff, Then settled down to strut my stuff. Before a Whipping time goes fast, A half hour soon goes flying pastg But oh! that hour went by so slow, I swear I thought 'twould never go. -Ernest Gotschall.
