Forty Days on an Iceburg
Forty days on a iceberg, across the ocean waves
Nothing to wear but pajamas, nothing to do but slide *whee*
The air was cold and icy, the frost began to bite
I had to hug a polar bear to keep me warm at night!
Lalala, lalala, lalala, lalala, two, three, four...
(Repeated with 30,20,10,5,2 and 1 days. Possibly smaller or larger time periods if the singer is feeling particularly silly.)
Ten In A Bed, addendum
Ten In A Bed, posted earlier, is also known in the variant form 'Please remember to tie a knot in your suspenders'.
I Ain't Gonna Grieve
(each line echoed)
You'll never get to heaven
In a baked bean tin
Cos a baked bean tin
Has baked beans in
(whole verse (no echo), faster)
(this is the chorus)
I ain't gonna grieve, my Lord no more
I ain't gonna grieve, my Lord
I ain't gonna grieve, my Lord
I ain't gonna grieve, my Lord no more...
You'll never get to heaven
In a jumbo jet
Cos the Lord ain't built
No runways yet
You'll never get to heaven
In (name here)'s bra
Cos (name here)'s bra
Don't stretch that far.
(There are *lots* of verses in this form, mostly made up on the spot.)
(at the end)
If you get there
Before I do
Just dig a hole
And pull me through
If I get there
Before you do
I'll dig a hole
And spit on you
A Pizza Hut
A Pizza Hut, a Pizza Hut
Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Pizza Hut
(repeat)
McDonalds, Mcdonalds
Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Pizza Hut
(repeat)
Also often heard with the two parts in a 'round', two groups singing them against each other.
Wherever We Go
(each line is a leader-groupecho pair)
Wherever we go
People always ask us
Who we are
And where we come from
And we always tell them
We're from (place here)
(Mighty Mighty/Lovely Lovely) (place here)
And if they don't hear us
We shout a little LOUDER!
(naturally, repeated at ever-increasing volume)
The Wheels On The Bus
The wheels on the bus go round and round
Round and round, round and round
The wheels on the bus go round and round
All day long.
The wipers on the bus go clack clack clack
Clack clack clack, clack clack clack
The wipers on the bus go clack clack clack
All day long.
The driver on the bus goes 'Tickets please'
'Tickets please', 'Tickets please'
The driver on the bus goes 'Tickets please'
All day long.
The ladies on the bus go chat chat chat
Chat chat chat, chat chat chat
The ladies on the bus go chat chat chat
All day long.
(Naturally, there are many other possible verses.)
Stop the Bus
Stop the bus, I want a wee-wee
Stop the bus, I want a wee-wee
Stop the bus, I want a wee-wee
And the boys in the back can't swim!
(I seem to remember some other verses, but I think that's the most common one.)
Campfire's Burning, Thunderation; Guide-Specific seeming stuff.
Campfire's burning, campfire's burning
Draw nearer, draw nearer
In the glory, in the glory
Come sing and be merry. (repeated ad nauseum)
There was also a song that contained the line 'Thunder, thunder, thunderation, we are the girl guides' federation' or something very similar, but I can't remember the rest of it.
The murder of Kum Ba Yah, and a five pound note
Of course, various murderings of Kum Ba Yah (Someone's puking being one of the tamer varients) are reasonably popular. I also remember a skipping/clapping song which definately included wrapping something up in a five pound note and the line "Having a baby, In the Royal Navy, boys on the back seat", but I can't remember the rest. (I can, however, remember the clapping scheme that went with it.)
In other news, I just gave an LJ code to a random girl in our computer room who looks like Ginny Weasley.

variants from marnanel land
Date: 2003-02-24 05:08 am (UTC)From:Wherever we go: We called it "Everywhere we go", but the song's clearly the same. It used to end with "And if they cannot hear us... THEY MUST BE DEAF!"
I Ain't Gonna Grieve: We had "I ain't got a grievance, Lord".
