VASSAR IN BEAUTY DWELLING
Vassar in beauty dwelling Through all the
changing year; Hail to thee, Mighty Mother,
Lovely, serene, austere. Praise we thy bloss'ming
springtime, Rose red thy June we praise;
Crimson and gold thine autumns, Crystal thy winter
days.
Vassar enthroned on beauty, Glad in thy gates
we throng; Mother of all our dreaming, Lifting
to thee our song.
Glorious do we behold thee, Gleams on thy
head a star; Thine eyes survey undaunted
The flaming worlds a—far. Long are thy
dreams, 0 Mother, Dreams are we taught of
thee; Touched with thy sprit's beauty,
Kindling our lives to be.
Vassar enthroned on beauty, Glad in thy gates
we throng, Mother of all our dreaming, Lifting
to thee our song.

HARK, ALMAMATER
Hark Alma Mater through the world is ringing,
The praise thy grateful daughters bring to thee.
O thou who dost hold the torch of truth before us,
‘A cross thy lawns we hear the magic song.
'Tis Vassar, our beloved Alma Mater,
That stands for ever fair and high and strong.
As we, thy children, pass from out thy portals,
To scatter far and wide the seeds of right,
May we be girt with pow'r and inspiration,
And worthy be to raise the loyal song.
'Tis Vassar, our beloved Alma Mater,
That stands for ever fair and high and strong.
Joyous a host come thronging, Alma Mater,
All seek the wisdom thou dost ever give.
With rev'rence may they take thy name up on them,
Send down the years the never ending song.
'Tis Vassar, our beloved Alma Mater,
That stands for ever fair and high and strong.

Eather Time
Father time is a crafty man
And he's set in his ways
And we know that we never can
Make him bring back past days
So Vassar, while we are here
Let's be friends firm and true
We'll have a gay time
A happy play time
For we all love to play with you.
'49
The cry of brave '49ers was
"Golden days must be here."
And though they all might have mined it,
To-day you'll find it — right here.
So at the end of our searching,
A round of praise is in line,
For all the memories of Vassar
And for the class of Forty-nine!
'48
Together with our spirits high
Our only limit's the sky
So Sing The Vassar Class of '48
Tho’ small in size we'll take the prize
For we're the best and the last class
In this college to accelerate.
Ever since 1861 the rose and grey has .
Never been outdone
So let's renew our cheers for you and
Once again celebrate
Vassar Class of '48

YOU HAVEN'T STARTED TO LIVE
Words and Music by Joan Weisman
I9W1$CPHomORE PRRTV
If you haven't known the ways of smoky cabarets,
Or gambling dens wnere wine and women give,
You haven't yet begun,
To know what's really fun,
You haven't started to live!
known the lures of short, but gay amours,
nk you've trained a temp'rate heart,
You'll fi t at you've been wrong,
Home's no where you belong,
nd virtue is just a lost art.
If you haven't
And shoul‘ thi
b
You may contend that it's tragic for the soul,
That there's no end where there isn't any goal.
But fun's a passing bliss that you so often miss
It slips right by like water through a seive
So catch it on the fly, before it passes by,
You haven't started to live.
"You Haven't Started toéflive"
\“\2| REUIMON Svow
New Words by Javits:
If you haven't known the joys
of grownup girls and boys
Who're gone a while and then come back to live,
You haven't yet begun
Supporting everyone,
You haven't started to give!
If you haven't spent a thou
Upon their wedding vow,
Their honeymoon and soon their baby's crib,
You haven't known the glee
Of total bankruptcy,
You haven't started to give!
You spend and spend.
They have babies you adore,
But there's no end..
They just kepp on having more.
,1 5
But l¥g¥{s-a passing bliss
That you so often miss.
It slips right by like water through a sieve
So tell thaose kids byhy:”8Y£_uVE“
Before they bleed you dry.
You haven't started to give,
You haven't started to give! ‘2

SPREAD IT AROUND
when I was a baby my mother told me
"Art for art's sake is a good policy",
I took her advice and soon after I found
You should throw your bread upon the waters,
Spread it, spread it around:
So many have lines long enough to hang clothes
But when I kiss I don't know where the nose goes.
So I have devoted my life to my art.
Men are fine, that's if you have the time to
Spread it, spread it around:
Damuist, expressionists the cubists and impressionists
Are all in for1s of art.
Eurrzalism gets me, but art never lets me
T379 time off to spend on my heart.
Now art is Just fine for the ballet brigade,
And men who know have said that I could be made
In thetzer, in opera, in any big town
Art's for all so g_*v your all for art,
Spread it, spread it around:

Senior Party. Spring 1947,,
Here we are together,
Together on our honey-moon;
Who cares about the weather,
All we‘ll do is spoon, and soon,
Surrounded by people,
We're still allalone,
No more courtin' on the telephone.
Now that life - expectancy
Is reachin' eighty-five,
That's not the real expectancy
That keeps our love alive,
Two-thousand eleven
We‘ll still bill and”coo.
Can't go on without lovin' you.
CONEY, CC.\'E‘.’ ISLAND
Cone Cone I
That's the place for me
Where bathing beauts in briefest suits
Never see the sea
Every red hot mama
With her sugar dad
Strolling down the boardwalk
Flirts with every lad .
Junior wants some ice cream
Mother wants a tan
Daddy wants a dancer
Sister wants a man
How about some pop corn?
Come and see the babes
Where the hell's the ocean?
Haven‘t seen a wave‘
Coney, Coney Island
That's the place for me
Now listen kid I‘ve been around
I‘ve been kinda giddy
In Atlantic City
But it's still Coney Island for me.

Now when two people woo, there's nothing they won't do-
And nothing's on the sly .
No fundamental rules apply
Since time went by.
Moonlite and love songs, strictly out of date.
Sreakers and flashers, movies to X rat.
Woman needs man and neither one CAN WAIT
To give the thing a try.
Its not the same ols saga, their pot has made them gaga
their coke has made them high.

(University of l\‘Iaine)
Fill the steins to dear old Maine, To the youth, to the fire,
Shout till the rafters ringl To the life that is moving and calling us!
Stand and drink a toast once againl To the Gods, to the Fates,
Let every loyal Maine man sing— To the rulers of men and their destinies;
Then drink to all the happy hours, To the lips, to the eyes,
Drink to the careless days— To the girls who will love us some day! Oh-
Drink to Maine, our Alma Mater, (llepeat chorus)
The College of our hearts always.

Oh, a Zulu king with a big nose ring, fell in love with a fair young maid,
And every night by the pale moonlight, across the lake he came.
Oh, a hug and a kiss for a Zulu miss, in the shade of the old palm tree, ‘
Whene’er they met, they sang a duct, and it sounded like this to me:
Bar-rumph (kiss kiss) bar-rnmph (kiss kiss) bar-rumph ti (li a di aye,
Bar—rumph, (kiss kiss) bar-rumph (kiss kiss) bar-rumph ti di a di aye.
We'll build a bungalow, big enough for two,
Big enough for two, my honey, big enough {or two, walla walla walla ‘
And when we're married, how happy we’ll be,
Underneath the bamboo, underneath the bamboo tree, boomboom
Boom, boom, boom boom boom boom boom boom!
If you’ll be M-I-N-E mine, I'll be T-IIsI—N-E thine,
And I'll L-O-V-E love you all the T-I-M-E time;
You are the B-E-S-T best of all the R-E-S-'1' rest, ,

Drunk last night, drunk the night before;
Coin’ to get drunk tonight like I never got drunk
before.
For when I'm drunk I'm as happy as can be,
' For I am a member of the souse family.
Singin' glorious, glorious,
One keg o' beer for the four of us.
Clorybe to God that there are no more of us,
For one of us could drink it all alone.
All alone (damn near), all alone (damn near),
Glory be to God that there are no more of us,
For one of us could drink it all alone.

Oh, when you hear the roll of the big bass drum,

But they're a damn sight better than the G-- d--

Oh, why do we go with the girls so much,
When we could drink beer with the C-- d---

When a tomcat, lean and lithe and strong,

I In sniilcd at the perfumed Persian cat
As she slrutted about with much éclat
Ami a~thinlcin' the time to pass,

" "i‘is iitten and proper," was her reply,

"But I'm not content with what I've got;
‘ I ought to be happy, but happy I'm not.
I should be joyful, yes, I should indeed,
For I'll have you know, I'm highly pedigreed."
"Now, hark," said the tomcat with a smile,
“You must trust in your new-found friend for
a while.
You must abandon your backyard fence,
My dear, what you lack is experience."
The joys of iivin he then unfurled
As he told her ta es of the outside world;
And then suggested, with a leering laugh,
A trip for two down the primrose path.
The morning after the night before,
The cat came home at the hour of four,
The innocent look from her face had went,
And in its place was a smile of content.
Two months later the kittens came
To that Persian kitty of pedigreed fame;
They were not Persian—they were black and tan-
And she told them their pa was a travelin' man.
He asked to hold my hand, I seriously objected.
I knew the feeling was grand, but I might not be respected.

IT WAS MIDNIGHT ON THE OCEAN
-ls» silver ‘threads mmomqmq H
It was midnight on the ocean, not a streetcar was insight;
While the sun was shining brightly, for it had rained all the night.
'Twas a summer's day in Winter, and the rain was snowing fast,
As the barefoot girl with shoes on stood there sitting in the grass.
It was evening and the sunrise was just setting in the west;
And the fishes in the treetops were all cuddled in their nests.
As the wind was bowing bubbles, lightning shot from left to right;
Everything that you could see had been hidden out of sight.
While the organ peeled potatoes, lard was rendered by the choir;
When the sexton rang the dishrag, someone set the church on fire.
"Holy Smokes!” the reacher shouted, as he madly tore his hair,
Now his head resemhles heaven, for there is no parting there.
THE VUL-GAR BCATMAN
How I love mine boatman
My very vu1ger°boatman
He's just a Russian, dfitshin', Prussian,
Russian from the sea. ~
When he comes from the ocean
He smells like Scott's emulsion _
He's got that silky kind of oilskin
What you love to touch.
He calls me his moimaid
I just love to be his slave
His kisses upset me just like the ocean wave
But I still I love mine boatman
My very vulgar boatman«
He's just a Russian, crushin', Prussian,
Russian from the sea.

Around the block, she pushed a baby carriage.
Behind the door her father kept a shotgun.
On the wall she keeps a marriage license.
In the desk, the sheriff keeps a warrant.
And in her heart, she has a secret passion;
She has it for an Amherst man who's not so

She's built just like a fairy, three hundred pounds or so.
My girl's from Wellcsley, she always tells me
I'm bats in the belfry, but I love her anyhow.
. My girl's from MIT, she is a travesty,
Girls who go for engineering are not so hot appearing.
My girls from Connecticut, she knows her etiquette, '
She taught me how to pet, now I do it too.
My man's from Yale, he lands in jail,
From drinking too much gin—ger ale.
Advertise
(Tune: Auld Lang Syne)
The fish, it never eaekles 'bout
it's million eggs or so,
The hen is quite a different bird,
one egg—and hear her crow.
The fish we spnrn, but crown the hen,
which leads me to surmise:
Don’t hide your light, but blow your horn,
it pays to advertise.

NORTH AFTER DINNER SONGS
"HOME ON THE QUAD”— words by Joan Javits
Oh, give me a sub
who will scrub out the tub
Give me breakfast in bed on a tray
Give me something to eat -
I'm so sick of puffed wheat '
Old Matt didn't plan it this way.
Home, Home, on the quad
Where the North Tower's closest to God
Nhere seldom is heard
The song of a bird -
Cause the snow always covers the sod.
My rdmmate believes
We have 85 leaves
Haven't seen her since early last May
She's up skiing at Stowe
But there isn't no snow
Old Matt must have planned it this way.
Home, Home in the stacks
Where the seniors are breaking their backs
If your book's on reserve
Dearie, don't lose your nerve
Just swipe it and start to make tracks.
Give me free cigarettes
Give us hundreds of ts
Give us no classes on Saturday
Give Professors more dough
Or I tell you they'll blow
Old Matt didn't plan it this way.
Home, Home on the(Quad
Where the North Tower's closest to God
Where seldom is heard
The song of a bird
Cause the snow always covers the sod.
AT THE BOARDING HOUSE
(Tune: Silver Threads Among the Cold)
At the boarclin house where I stayed, everything was growing old;
Silver hairs among the butter, and the bread was all a—mold.
When the dog died, we had sausage, when the cat died, catnip toa,
But when the landlord diedAI left there, spare;-ibs were too much for mc_

Girls Can Never Change Their Nature
(Tune: Silver Threads Among the Cold)
Ci . n ver ch e their nature; that is quite beyond their reach.
If a girl is born a lemon, she can never be a peach.
But the law of compensation is the one I always preach,
You can always squeeze a lemon, but just try to squeeze a peach.
But you can try!
’Wolves when They're Young
They're wolves when they're young,
And they're wolves when they're old,
So beware of all men because they blow hot, blow cold-
All things that shine
My dear are not gold,
So beware of all men because they blow hot, blow cold.
Now you may work like a maniac
And jump around like a jumping jack
Just to keep your honey from sliding back
And then he flies off with a blonde.
They're wolves when they're young, etc.
Now I said to Jennie Jones the other day
"If a man falls for you just let him lay; '"
And don't you believe a single word they say.
Cause they blow hot, blow cold.
When a man proposes by the garden gate, '
He gets you hot and bothered, then procrastinates,
So honey, just be careful when you're picking out a mate,
They blow hot, blow cold. -
Now you may work like a maniac,:tc.
I would play with fire any old day,
Just as long as I was sure that it was safe to play,
But dammit, the men don't play that way,
They blow hot, blow cold.
All things that shine, etc.

NORTH SONG _
Words and Music by Joan Javits
We got it over you
The tower's got a super view
The wings you must admire, they could fly higher,
Cause they've got the spirit, tooo...
North is the very top,
The tower will rock, but never drop,
And if you venture forth you'll wind up at North...
Don't misconstrue it, we do mean Jewett.
Though we don't think you're a total flop,
We've got it over you, we've got it over you.
TEASIN' TEASIN'
(Verse I)
Teasin', Teasin', I was only teasing you,
Teasin', Teasin', just to see what you would do.
(Of course you know that I was)
Teasin', Teasin', just to prove your lone was true
-Don't be angry, ‘cause
I was only, only teasin' you.
DEDICATED TO MISS BLANDING
(To the tune of TEASIN') Verse II
Found ‘er, founde ‘er
Vassar found ‘er when she came to us.
We found ‘er, found er
But we didn't know what name to call ‘er, when we hollered
Found ‘er, found ‘er, I
But Prexy lends us no relief;
If tuition drops or not, she's tops.
And let's just call her our Big Chief.

To carry daddy home.

THE LAVENDAR cowaor
He was only a lavendar cowboy, and the
hairs on his chest were but two. Yet
he wanted to be like the heros, and do
as the he-men-do.
Herbicide and many hair tonics, he
rubbed in both morning and night, but
each time he looked in the mirror, there
were only two hairs in sight. He fought
to save Red Nellie's honor-he cleaned out
an outlaw's nest, and he died with his
sixgwns a-smokin' and only two hairs
on his chest.
