THE NEW GYMNASIUM.
(Dedicated to the Professor in English 2, who expressed a desire to hear a good old English refrain).
THIS is the new Gymnasium.
This is the boy all dressed in blue
Who sits in the new Gymnasium.
This is attendant No. 2
Who bosses the boy all dressed in blue
Who sits in the new Gymnasium.
This is the clerk who has nothing to do
But boss attendant No. 2
Who bosses the boy all dressed in blue
Who sits in the new Gymnasium.
This is the Freshman very wise
Who expressed a desire to exercise
To the gentle clerk who has nothing to do
But boss attendant No. 2
Who bosses the boy all dressed in blue
Who sits in the new Gymnasium.
This is the ticket that, punched clear through
By the clerk, the boy, and attendant too,
Let in the Freshman very wise
Who expressed a desire to exercise
To the gentle clerk who has nothing to do
But boss attendant No. 2
Who bosses the boy all dressed in blue
Who sits in the new Gymnasium.
This is the uniform very swell
That's needed in order to exercise well
After giving the ticket that, punched all through
By the clerk, the boy, and attendant too,
Let in the Freshman very wise
Who expressed a desire to exercise
To the gentle clerk who has nothing to do
But boss attendant No. 2
Who bosses the boy all dressed in blue
Who sits in the new Gymnasium.
These are the rules which all must obey
That briefly tell the proper way
To use the uniform very swell
That's needed in order to exercise well
After giving the ticket that, punched all through
By the clerk, the boy, and attendant too,
Let in the Freshman very wise
Who expressed a desire to exercise
To the gentle clerk who has nothing to do
But boss attendant No. 2
Who bosses the boy all dressed in blue
Who sits in the new Gymnasium.
And this is the taffy and red tape too
That all, like the Freshman, have to go through
To obey the rules which all must obey
That briefly tell the proper way
To use the uniform very swell
That 's needed in order to exercise well
After giving the ticket that, punched all through
By the clerk, the boy, and attendant too,
Let in the Freshman very wise
Who expressed a desire to exercise
To the gentle clerk who has nothing to do
But boss attendant No. 2
Who bosses the boy all dressed in blue
Who sits in the new Gymnasium.
