("Itsy-Bitsy Spider")
Don't send my son to  Harvard, the dying mother said.
Don't send my son to Yale, I'd rather see him  dead.
Send him off to Darmouth, or better yet, Cornell.
And as for  Pennsylvania, I'll see him first in hell!
("Glory, Glory Hallelujah")
To hell, to hell  with Pennsylvania,
To hell, to hell with Pennsylvania.
To hell, to hell  with Pennsylvania.
To hell with U of P-- P-U!
We were only, only, foolin',
We were only, only, foolin',
We were only,  only, foolin'--
The hell we were! P-U!  P-U!
