Subject: RE: Lyr Add: I Took A Little Trip to Heaven
Adam

Adam was the first man to wear the Phi Ep pin,
Socrates, the wise, was the next one in,
Napoleon, the third, although he had the itch
If Caesar were alive today
We’d pledge the son of a gun.

Oh, we are, we are, we are, we are, the boys of Phi Ep Pi,
We are, we are, we are, we are, the boys of Ph Ep Pi,
For we’re all jolly good fellows, And here’s the reason why,
We are, we are, we are, we are, the boys of Phi Ep Pi.

Now if I had a daughter, I’d dress her in scarlet and gray
And send her on the campus to cheer the boys all day
But if I had a son, boys, here’s how he would die
A rootin,’ tootin,’ shootin’ crap with the boys of Phi Ep Pi.
