TKE Chants...

[JonInKC]

To the tune of "Oh my darling Clementine". I've noticed a lot of fraternities have a variation of this also.

Sung slowly....
Take your girlfriend, to the corner, where the light are nice and low,
put your left hand on her on her shoulder and your right hand down below, when she starts to... shake and shiver and wonder what the hell is going on,
you can tell her is the's secret handshake of tau kappa epsilON

**reading this isn't the same. try and sing it and you'll see how is rhymes. Might take a couple tries.

we had a pledge song that was sung everynight...voice was gone by week 3.

it has to be yelled at top shelf:

PLEDGES, PLEDGES, PLEDGES,
RAIDERS OF THE NIGHT!
DIRTY SONS OF BITCHES,
WE'D RATHER FUCK THAT FIGHT!
GRAB THE PRYTANIS' GIRLFRIEND,

[TKEEO778]

I was born in a canebreak,
Raised by a bear,
Got a double steel jaw,
And a fine coat of hair,
I got a cast iron belly,
And a fine blue rod,
I'm a mean motherf*cker,
I'm a Teke by god!

We like to do a chant called "Little Bird"

get one brother to lead, and everyone else repeats after him...

A Little Bird,
With a yellow bill,
Flew upon,
My Window sill,
I coaxed him in,
With bits of bread,
And with a hammer,
I smashed his F*cking head!
The moral of,
The story be,
You do not f^ck,
With T-K-E.

[Mward2002]

Florida State's chant is done when we give new guys a bid, or if we just get bored.

During rush after a guy's accepted a bid - We ring a giant bell outside the chapter house in order to get the brothers' attention (and everyone else around) that a bid's been accepted. New guy stands about 30-40 feet away and all the brothers gather in a horseshoe like mob. We start yelling "OHHHHHHHHHHHHH" and then the new guy runs at full speed and jumps straight up and out at the pile. We catch him and start tossing him as high as we can in the air while chanting the following (I was hitting tree branches about 6 feet above the pile but I weighed 120 lbs haha)

Who are we? TKE! We're raiders of the night!
We're dirty sons of a bitches! We'd rather F*ck than fight!
So heidy heidy Christ Almighty who the Hell are we?
Zig Zag God Damn F*cking TKE!

Works really well, and scares the living Hell out of the new guys straight off the bat hahaha

A yellow bird
With a yellow bill
Sitting on
My window sill
I lured him in
With a pieced of bread
And then I crushed,
His ##cking head
The moral of
The story is
To get some head
You need some bread

One of my buddies wrote the first verse and chorus one year. Then about three years later me, him, and anther guy wrote the rest. It's sung to the tune of the "Battle Hymn of the Republic."

We're the brothers that you know that you can always stand beside.
When you're too drunk to walk we'll always give you a ride.
We'll take your girlfriends' pants off 'cause we know what's inside.
We're the men of T-K-E!!

(chorus)
F*ck the Sigs we'll take their WOMEN!!
F*ck KA we'll take their WOMEN!!!
Theta Chi ain't got no WOMEN!!
We're the men of T-K-E!!

Well your playing us in football, you may think that we are soft.
You may beat us on the field, but your girlfriend beats us off.
We'll f*ck her 'til we're board and then we'll go and play some Tolf.
We're the men of T-K-E!!

(chorus)

While you're drinking like a freshman, b*tch we're drinking like a pro.
We're so good in bed we'll turn a nun into a ho.
If you can't find your girlfriend then you'll know where she will go.
To the men of T-K-E!!

(chorus)

Well we're drinking and we're f*ucking and we're f*ucking while we drink.
If you can't puke in the toilet, you can always use the sink.
We do a lot of stupid sh*t, because we never think.
We're the men of T-K-E!!

(chorus)


*Side note: Tolf is a game we play on our campus. It's golf with a tennis ball. The course is across campus and holes can be buildings, cars, trees, and people.

We also have a cheer that we don't use very often anymore:

Douche bag dirty rag suck you're mamma's tit.
C*ck sucker mother f*ucker eat a bag of sh*t.
We're the best fraternity and all the others suck f*uck.
We're the godd*mn T-K-Es rah rah f*uck.

[Roxbury479]

Also our cheer is similar to the first post. Except the end:

holy jumpin Jes*s Chr*st
spite 'em, fight 'em, dynamite 'em
sh*t, f*ck, p*ssy

[tkeiy660]

I thought that certain chants were secret. Explain?

[FIUTKE426]

FIU miami TKE's

Were Apollos Raiders
Were Raiders of the Night
Were Mean Mother Fuckers
We'd Rather Fuck then Fight
Wham Bam Thank You Mam
Who the Fuck are We
Mighty... Mighty... TKE...

[NIUTKE744]

Here is one that we do every year before we go sing to sororities, on homecoming, and before tugs matches.

(One frater leads, and the rest repeat at the top of their lungs)

RA RA RA!
AH F**KIN' AH!
WHO ARE WE?
WE ARE, WE ARE, WE ARE THE TEKES!
BEST OF ALL THOSE GOD DAMN GREEKS!
BEST IN THE EAST!
BEST IN THE WEST!
TAU KAPPA EPSILON!
F**K THE REST!

it is definately what pumps me up the most

[ChewyTKE609]

I'm an alum from EN and we have a chant called drink beer
Drink Beer, Drink Beer, oh come drink beer with me
I don't give a damn for any old man who won't drink beer with me
Bring out that old gray goblet with the TKE crest upon it and we'll all have another glass of beer!!
Glass of Beer!!
For it's not for knowledge that we come to college
But to raise hell while we're raise hell while we're raise hell while we're here
And we will drink drink drink to Epsilon
And we will raise our glasses high
Raise 'em high
And we'll love our sacred brotherhood
And we'll be loyal till we die
till we die
When the day is done we'll tap another one for Tau Kappa Epsilon

Tekes once Tekes twice holy moses jesus christ goddamn sonofabitch ra ra TKE

Tekes UP Tekes DOWN
