A song we (Steve, Elwyn, and ??) wrote while at Caltech. I write it down here because last night I struggled with reconstructing all the verses.

The Frosh Arrived (sung to the tune of “Cat’s in the Cradle”)
\nthe frosh arrived just the other day
\nthey came to Tech in the usual way
\nbut there was work to do, grades were at stake
\nstaying here was a big mistake
\nthey were flicking for I knew it as I watched I’d say
\nyou’re going to be like me, frosh
\nyou know you’re going to be like me
\nand the math’s on the table and the chem’s on the floor
\nain’t got sleep in the past twenty four
\nwhen you coming out s’more? I don’t know when
\nbut will get together then, frosh
\nyou know we’ll have a good time then
\nI saw the frosh just the other day
\nhe said to me, come on let’s play
\ncan you teach me broomball? I said not today
\nI got a lot of work he said…bummer
\nand as he walked away I just shook my head
\nyou’re going to be like me frosh,
\nyou know you’re going to be like me
\nand the math’s on the table and the chem’s on the floor
\nain’t got sleep in the past twenty four
\nwhen you coming out s’more I don’t know when
\nbut will get together then, frosh
\nyou know we’ll have a good time then
\nstarted E&M just the other day

\nFrosh I’m proud of you can you flick for a while
\nhe shook his head and he said with a smile
\nwhat I’d really like now is your CRC
\ngive it to me won’t you please
\nnow, I WANT YOUR CRC (shouted)
\nand the math’s on the table and the chem’s on the floor
\nain’t got sleep in the past twenty four
\nwhen you coming out s’more I don’t know when
\nbut will get together then, frosh
\nyou know we’ll have a good time then
\nthird terms ended, summers begun
\nI called the frosh just for fun
\nI said I’d like to see you if you have time
\nhe said I’d love to s’more if I could find the time
\nbut the SURF is a hassle I’ve got Math 2b
\nbut it’s sure nice talking to you s’more
\nit’s sure nice talking to you
\nand as I hung up the phone it occurred to me,
\nhe grown up just like me, yeah

\nain’t got sleep in the past twenty four
\nwhen you coming out s’more I don’t know when
\nbut will get together then, frosh
\nyou know we’ll have a good time then\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A song we (Steve, Elwyn, and ??) wrote while at Caltech.
