27 Mar 06 - 07:52 AM (#1703735) Subject: Song Challenge: The Right Stuff! From: The Fooles Troupe Sonia, 78, received a letter from The US Marines, asking her to join their elite group. They promised to push her to her mental and physical limits! She is going to take her walker down to the recruiting office and offer anyway... Someone will post a link to the full story, I suppose... I think that this just NEEDS a folk song - I had thought a title of "The Zimmer Brigade", or "The Right Stuff"... Robin P.S. - don't say that they are getting desperate for recruits... |

I won't tell you what I shouted, Because it was rather obscene. We're all marines together, Our pubics hang down to our knees. Yes we're all marines together, We're never too old if you please. They posted me to Iraq you know, Thinking I would not survive. But here I am at seventy eight, Typing and still much alive. We're all marines together, Our pubics hang down to our knees. Yes we're all marines together, We're nevewr too old if you please. |

From: Dave (the ancient mariner) I have the greatest respect for the USMC, therefore this is in fun only, no disrespect intended. Sunfg to: The Halls Of Montezuma The USGMC (United States Geriatric marines) From the Halls of the retirement home To the bus she can barely see Sonia will fight our country's battles In the air on land and sea. First to fight for depends and freedom And to keep our false teeth clean; She will be proud to bear the title Of United States Geriatric Marine. Her bag's are packed for all her needs From dawn to setting sun; She has shopped in every store and mall to find a suitable gun. In the streets of far-off Northern lands And in sunny tropic scenes; You will find her always on the job -- Sonia the United States Geriatric Marine. Here's Ben gay for you and to our Corps Which she will be proud to serve; In many a strife she fought for life And never lost her nerve. If the Army and the Navy Ever look on Heaven's scenes, They will find the streets are guarded By United States Geriatric Marines. |

From: Genie Just the chorus for a start: KIDDIES, DON'T LET YOUR GRANNIES SIGN UP TO BE JARHEADS Kiddies, don't let your grammas sign up to be jarheads! Don't let 'em play Rambo and drive them old hum vees. Let em knit sweaters, and bake and stay comfy. Kiddies, don't let your grammas sign up to be jarheads! They're way underweight and they'll never shoot straight, 'Specially on days when they're grumpy. |
