hmmm, maybe this is interrupting the train of song here, a bit, but I have to tell you - I learnt the last lines as
"I hit her on the chin with a rotten mandarine
And her teeth came marching out!"
alexis
well, since alexis isn't following da rules either, i might as well jump in to say that the way we sang it was
Glory, glory hallelujah
Teacher hit me with a ruler
The ruler didn't break
So she hit me with a rake
and the blood came gushing out.
there, now, wasn't that a worthy contribution!
We've moved on six miles from where we were yesterday
And yesterday is but a long long ways away
So we'll camp out tonight beneath the bright starlight
And forget rotten peaches and the places we've stayed
Rotten Peaches - Elton John
Well the dawn was coming. Heard him ringing on my bell.
He said, "My name's a teacher, or that is what I call myself,
And I have a lesson that I must impart to you.
It's an old expression, but I must insist it's true:
Jump up, look around, find yourself some fun;
No sense in sitting there healing everyone.
No man's an island and his castle isn't home.
The nest is for nothing when the bird has flown."
So I took a journey through my world into the sea.
Will beware the teacher, who found fun instead of me.
Hey man, what's your plan, what was that you said?
Suntan, drinking head, lying there in bed.
I tried to socialize but I can't seem to find
What I was looking for. Got something on my mind.
Then the teacher told me it had been a lot of fun,
Thanked me for his ticket and all that I had done.
Hey man, what's your plan, what was that you said?
Suntan, drinking head, lying there in bed.
I tried to socialize but I can't seem to find
What I was looking for. Got something on my mind.

Ha! You did it again, Connie! But since "Rotten" was already used, "teacher" is much more original...so I win again!

Now, when them cotton fields get rotten
You can't pick very much cotton
In them old cotton fields back home.
Cotton Fields - Creedence Clearwater (among others)
Found a peanut, found a peanut,
Found a peanut just now,
Just now I found a peanut,
Found a peanut just now.
Cracked it open, cracked it open,
Cracked it open just now,
Just now I cracked it open,
Cracked it open just now.
It was rotten, it was rotten,
It was rotten just now,
Just now it was rotten,
It was rotten just now.
Found a Peanut - Jimmy Carter?
"Oh where there's no future how can there be sin / We're the flowers in the dustbin / We're the poison in the human machine / We're the future ..you're future / God save the queen / We mean it man / We love our queen / God saves."
--Johnny Rotten and the Sex Pistols (the real Rotten!)
The Only WO'N!
"Who threw the overalls
In Mrs. Murphy's chowder?"
Nobody spoke, so he
Shouted all the louder.
"It's a rotten trick that's true,
I can lick the drip that threw
The overalls in Mrs. Murphy's chowder."
Who Threw the Overalls
in Mrs. Murphy's Chowder?

Bright Side of Life
Always look on the bright side of life.
[whistling]
Always look on the light side of life.
[whistling]
If life seems jolly rotten,
There's something you've forgotten,
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing.
When you're feeling in the dumps,
Don't be silly chumps.
Just purse your lips and whistle. That's the thing.
And...
Always look on the bright side of life.
[whistling]
Always look on the right side of life,
[whistling]
from The Life of Brian, Monty Python
The Only WO'N!
and i get caught up
in the moonlight
reaching out for a rotten egg
i don't want to beg
