CONSTANCE FRY
Tune: Aura Lee/Love me tender (or very similar)

   Zeta Chi, Zeta Chi, Zeta Chi my friend;
   'neath the elms we sing our tones –
   We're brothers to the end.

We like Sigma kappa girls
They're our number ones.
Bobby sox and lovely curls,
And such lovely 'buns'.

   Lovely buns, lovely buns, Held so firm and high.
   If you're thinking doughy buns,
   You're not Zeta chi.

Some want their girls full of zest,
Some like breasts and thighs.
I like rounded curves the best,
Just like Constance Fry's.

   Constance Fry, Constance Fry, Full of Rubens' charms.
   Smile to cheer me, softly sigh,
   Take me in your arms.

Muffy in the bathroom stall,
Margaret by the lake.
Susan down in Whitley Hall,
Constance on the make.

   Constance Fry, Constance Fry, anytime you call.
   Constance would fulfil, your needs –
   Winter, Spring or Fall.

w: Muff-y in the bath-room stall, Mar-g'ret by the lake. Su-san down in Whit-ley Hall, Con-stance on the make. Con-stance Fry, Con-stance Fry, an-y-time you call. Con-stance would ful-fil, your needs Win-ter, Spring or Fall.

This song appears as a snippet (first four & last seven lines) in the film "Trading Places" in the Tennis Club scene. I thought it might benefit from a fuller treatment.

Never knew that thier where lyrics to complete the song, with just the snippit it was hard to not remember and sing randomly for no reason and get a laugh. I'm glad too know the complete song, but a bit irked you shuffled it to the front of my memory. 28 years later none the less! Thanx for that.

Just a reminder, these are not "the complete song".
I am not aware whether there was ever anything of it other than the ten lines mentioned above, and quoted from 'Trading Places'
The rest is just my two-penn'orth to fill it out.
