Bus Songs


Recommended Posts

To the tune of "1812 Overture"

..."I march in Phantom cuz I like 6th place"...the placing changed according to the previous championship results.

Haha, I've heard similar lyrics... "I march at Phantom cause I can't play jazz."

A couple that I can make public,

to the tune of "It Was a Very Good Year" - - -

"When I was twenty three...

I was a Mu-cha-cho Rookie

My father taught me the ropes,

I just couldn't cope"...

Sung after the 1975 season.

Also (sung to the tune of "Danny Boy". I actually had to stop the bus from singing this on the way to Foxboro in 94. We had a little kid aboard.

" OH WHAT THE F###, OH WHAT THE F### OH WHAT THE ###. ETC. ETC.

When I was in college, we would sing "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" one beat off (just sing the first two words on the same pitch and then continue)

We also had one called "The Woodpecker Song". Anyone ever heard of that one?

"He's a bad ol' bird, It's the woodpecker song"

1982 Reading Bucs Ballet in Brass completely sung to the F word as loud as possible.

a song about Sky sung to Ny Ny, a song about Cabs, cant remember the melody

the ad lib song sung about corps members to the adjusted words from "there once was a man from Nantucket"

ay ay yi yi ... *insert another impromptu lyric

the f.u. contests between the front of the bus and the back of the bus after a quick lead in of the Washington Post March (I think it was)

including choreography of standing up and pointing

We had a Joel LaMarre tribute song that we sang to the middle melody of Gaite Parisienne. It went, "Joel LaMarre, Joel LaMarre, Joel LaMarre". Anyone who marched 77 or 78 could sing it for you. Joel was a baritone player who is a true Lancer legend.

Too bad Hurcs don't have "I love a drum corps" on youtube. That's tops on my list for bus tunes. Not to start an argument here, but when I marched, Hurcs had much better bus songs than Cabs did. :tounge2:
