Ann Marie Loves Pierre
Ann Marie, she loves Pierre
It’s written on the café sidewalks everywhere
John Pierre, he loves Marie
It’s written on a heart they carved upon a tree
Ann Marie, she said one day
“I love you very much so let us run away.”
John Pierre, he said “Oui, oui.”
And ran to tell his friends, “I’m marrying Ann Marie!”
They went off into the park
But they were getting hungry and it was getting dark
They got back before too late,
For Ann Marie was seven, and John Pierre was eight

But I didn’t buy no henny
Instead, I bought some bubblegum.

Oh the…Cannibal king with the big nose ring
Fell in love with a dusky maid
And every night, beneath the pale moon light
Across the bay he came
He hugged and he kissed his pretty little miss
Under the bamboo tree
And every night beneath the pale moonlight
It sounded like this to me
Baroom ( kiss kiss), Baroom ( kiss kiss)
Under the bamboo tree
Baroom ( kiss kiss), Baroom (kiss kiss)
It sounded like this to me
I’ll build a bungalow big enough for two
Big enough for two my honey, Big enough for two
Then we’ll be married, Happy we’ll be
Under the bamboo, under the bamboo tree
And you’ll be M-I-N-E mine
I’ll be T-H-I-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-T

I like boys who follow Christ and I cannot lie!
You other sisters can’t deny
When a boy walks in
With a scripture case
And a smile upon his face
You get a date!
A celestial mate- but wait!
He’s going’ on a mission
Leavin’ you wishin’ that you had a man!
Someone to hold your hand!
So deacons what?
Teachers what?
We don’t like your features! ( what!?)
You’re brothers are hot and you are not
So give me those righteous priests! YAH!

Oh my Tania, Oh my Tania,
I have a story to tell,
All about my time at girls camp,
And how I got, the girls camp smell.
Oh my Tania, Oh my Tania,
Haven’t bathed, or washed my clothes,
Where this girls camp smell comes from,
Only heaven really knows.
Oh my Tania, Oh my Tania,
Don’t come close, stay far away,
Or else the smell I got at girls camp
Will surely make you faint
Princess Pat and Her Rick-a-bamboo
Princess Pat and her Rick-a-bamboo
(repeat after me song)
The Princess Pat, lived in a tree
She sailed across, the 7 seas
She sailed across the channel 2
And she took with her, a rick-a-bamboo
A rick-a-bamboo, now what is that?
It’s somethin’ made, by the princess pat
It’s red and gold, and purple too
That’s why it’s called a rick-a-bamboo
Now Captain Jack had a mighty fine crew
He sailed across, the channel 2
His ship did sink and so will you
If you don’t take a rick-a-bamboo
A rick-a-bamboo, now what is that?
It’s somethin’ made by the Princess Pat
It’s red and gold, and purple too
That’s why it’s called a rick-a-bamboo
The Princess Pat, saw Captain Jack
She reeled him in, and brought him back
She saved his life, and his crew too
And she did it all with a rick-a-bamboo
A rick-a-bamboo, now what is that?
It’s somethin’ made, by the Princess Pat
It’s red and gold, and purple too
That’s why it’s called a rick-a-bamboo
Now Captain Jack and Princess Pat
They fell in love and that was that
They had 9 kids and so will you
If you don’t take a rick-a-bamboo
A rick-a-bamboo, now what is that?
It’s somethin’ made, by the Princess Pat
It’s red and gold and purple too
That’s why it’s called a rick-a-bamboo

Three little angels all dressed in white
Tryna get to heaven on the end of a kite
But the kite string broke and down they all fell
Instead of goin’ to heaven they all went to —
Three little devils all dressed in red
Tryna get to heaven on the end of a thread
But the thread string broke and down they all fell

Don’t lose your head
Instead of goin’ to heaven
They all went to bed!
