' Twas the day of Registration And all through the school Not a student was organized, nor followed a rule. The students line up by the doors in despair, In hopes that the classes they wanted were there. The teachers were hugging their tables in fear, With visions of chaos which soon would be near. Guidance at their table were ready to rap ' Bout the schedules which soon would lie in their lap. As the doors opened wide, There arose such a clatter; Mr. Ryska came running to see what was the matter. Away to the tables they went in a scurry To pick up their cards and leave in a hurry. The teachers said, SORRY, YOU CAN ' T HAVE THIS CLASS. So back through The Guidance, you ' ll have to pass. Move to the next table if one table ' s busy So onward they moved getting more and more dizzy. More tired than eager the teachers they came, While Mr. Ryska yelled at the students by name. Now DeYoung, Now Devries, Now DeKock and Donelly. Come on Collins and Compton, Capouch and Conley: To the end of that line please heed this call. Now, Hurry up Hurry up! Hurry up, all. He stood by the door, to his team gave a shout. They Began closing up without a shadow of doubt. But we heard them exclaim before they closed for the day, It ' s over and done — And it worked. HURRAY!!
