To The Finish

When that I was and a little maggot,


With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,


A crazy chopper was but a toy,


For the rain it raineth all the night.




But when I came to Commonwealth Ave,


With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,


‘Gainst the tide of SCUL, a cabbie said "I'm goin' left! I'm goin'
left!",


For the wind it gusteth all the night.




But when I came, at last, to Medico's


With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,


She let us in despite our sogginess,


For the puddles they splasheth all the night.




But when we stumbled back to base anyway


With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,


With our sodden, cold, and tipsy heads,


The hail it haileth hard and sharp.




My shoes are making sloshing noises,


With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,


But that’s all one, our play is done,


And we’ll strive to please you every Saturnight.
