Theta chants & songs

Is this how you bump? To get the conversation going again?
I'm particularly interested in songs sung at Alpha Omicron, University of Oklahoma because in reading these posts I find that different chapters sing different songs.
Thanks!

Here's 2 more I can remember (though not from the U of OK chapter)...

We did this one as our entrance song to Preference.
One in love, and Theta friendship true
One in faith, that Theta's there for you
One in hope, that you will join us too
With twin stars and kites above.

This one was a big sisterhood/candlelight song:
Remember the black, dear, remember the gold
Remember the story that's always been told
Remember the friendships so faithful and true
Remember that Theta loves no one but you
Once you have found her, you'll find heaven there
As for we Theta's, we can't help but care
Remember she's with you where ever you are,
Just always look for the kite and twin stars
(the tempo picks up for the next part)
Remember the black and gold, dear
Remember the kite we fly
Remember when you are old, dear
That Theta's with you til you die! (high note!)
Remember the twin stars shining through out eternity
(Tempo starts to slow down again)
And if you remember Theta
She'll always remember you
Re-MEM-ber (slow and drifting off at the end)

Any specific song(s) sung at candle passings? We have TWO engaged members and it's been quite a while since we've done a candle passing. Everyone is quite excited and for the life of me, I cannot recall what we sang but I do not think it was "Remember".

Help?

Can anyone write out the lyrics to "Boom boom for the girls we love?" We're having a hard time remembering them and the actives who used to sing it are graduated now...

[AZTheta]

Not exactly the "boom boom" I remember (although parts are the same) but then, things have evolved and changed over the years:


THETA DOOR CHANT

Boom boom, Boom boom, Boom boom boom boom
Boom boom, Boom boom, Boom boom boom boom

Boom Boom there’ll be nothing but Theta
Boom boom for the girls we love.
Boom boom there’ll be nothing but Theta
‘Neath the twin stars up above.
There’s black and gold
There’s friendships old
There’s Theta pins for the girls we win
Boom boom, there’ll be nothing but Theta
Boom boom for the girls we love.

Boom boom, Boom boom, Boom boom boom boom.
Boom boom, Boom boom, Boom boom boom boom

Theta Theta Theta Theta
I wanna be, I wanna be a, be a, be a
Theta now right here at USC*
We wear our black and gold for everyone to see
So when you’re thinking hey hey what should I do?
Just remember that… Theta Loves YOU!!!

T, T-H, T-H-E-T-A, go Theta
Boom, boom boom, don’t you wanna be a Theta
T, T-H, T-H-E-T-A, go Theta
Boom, boom boom, only way to go is Theta
T, T-H, T-H-E-T-A, go Theta
Boom, boom boom, we want you to be a Theta
T, T-H, T-H-E-T-A, go Theta (repeat)

*you could insert the name of your school here

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!! <3

prettyv, I'll search song books next time I'm at the chapter and if I find Boom Boom, I will photocopy the page(s) that has/have the actual "boom boom" song and music. The chant is added. I can hear the song in my head now (ear worm!).

There are a LOT of songs that are no longer sung; some are very "dated". It's like the hymns that are no longer sung in many church services today. Styles change.

We always sang "Remember" and "Theta Kite" and "One in Love" for candlelights. We just sang all 3 over and over until the candle was blown out.

as if to tell me that dreamins alright

We do this for our pref night in recruitment. I <3 it so much.

One of Whitman's favorite chants:

Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa
Alpha Alpha Alpha Alpha
Theta Theta Theta Theta
Kappa Alpha Theta

Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa
Alpha Alpha Alpha Alpha
Theta Theta Theta Theta
Kappa Alpha Theta

Boom, boom, boom boom Theta
Boom, boom, boom boom Theta

Boom boom there'll be nothing but Theta
Boom boom for the one that I love
Boom boom there'll be nothing but Theta
with the twin stars up above

There's a Theta kite for every girl, that's right!
And the two twin stars are shinning bright.
Boom boom there'll be nothing but Theta
Boom boom for the one that I love

Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa
Alpha Alpha Alpha Alpha
Theta Theta Theta Theta
Kappa Alpha Theta

Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa
Alpha Alpha Alpha Alpha
Theta Theta Theta Theta
Kappa Alpha Theta

Want your earworms, the songs that go through everyone's head a night. Lyrics and links to youtube videos would be very much appreciated. Boom boom is a no go.

[MaryPoppins]

Anybody have all the words the Theta chant with the Dr. Pepper ad melody? I saw it in a video from HQ and it will drive me crazy until I can sing it all. Please save me?

Mary Poppins, I know I'm a month late, but do you mean...

I'm a Theta! She's a Theta!
Wouldn't you like to be a Theta too?
Be a Theta! Kappa Alpha Theta! Woo!
Be a Theta! Kappa Alpha Theta! Woo!

And I will now have that song in my head for the next week.

YES! No one remembered the words down here and it was our main earworm at the time.

I seem to remember that all the words were altered from the ad jingle (text below). Am I right, or am I having a senior moment?

I drink Dr. Pepper and I'm proud
I used to be alone in a crowd
but now you look around these days
there seems to be a Dr. Pepper Craze!
I'm a pepper, he's a pepper, she's a pepper
we're a pepper, wouldn't you like to be a pepper too?
I'am a pepper, he's a pepper, she's a pepper,
if you drink Dr. Pepper you're a pepper too!

Us peppers are an interesting breed
an original taste is what we need
ask any pepper and he'll say
Only Dr. Pepper tastes that way!

I'm a pepper, he's a pepper, she's a pepper
we're a pepper wouldn't you like to be a pepper too?
I'm a pepper he's a pepper' she's a pepper
We're a pepper wouldn't you like to be a pepper too?

Be a pepper, Drink Dr. pepper,
Be a pepper, Drink Dr. Pepper. (Come on!)
Be a pepper, Drink Dr. Pepper,
Be a pepper, Drink Dr. Pepper. (Alright!)
Be a pepper, Drink Dr. Pepper,
Be a pepper, Drink Dr. Pepper.
