[Marginal, but not completely off topic] A music camp I attended in 2000 and 2001 in W Va used to do the following: Crash! Bang! [slamming cutlery down on table] here we are again, Here we are again, here we are again; Crash! Bang! [slamming cutlery] here we are again, In the Dining Hall. That's it. No verse, no origin myth, hardly a tune (more a chant); just an ongoing custom, enacted "as loudly and obnoxiously as possible" [my characterization]. David W
