We are Fifty Kay and Seven now, Since Khandu's starting gun We're a little gray but we're all still sharp Enough to make the run And we know the day's not far ahead When the Ks make Fifty-one. No thread that ever Mudcat saw Has even approached our claim And all through Mudcat's motley realm We've earned our noble name As the thread that has the best of posts If sometimes less than sane. The cheers will lift the palace roof The huzzahs will be rousin' And all will get a bowl of cheer, And a proper champagne dowsing. The day the noble MOAB thread Breaks the tape at Fifty-one thousand. So here's to old McGonagle And Blind Drunk in Blind River And to the dreams of Rapparree WHich make you blink and shiver. And here's to gnu and Stilly too, And big Bruce, on occasion For making this most noble thread The toast of Mudcat nation.
