New Song: Beta Badge

[a.e.B.O.T.]

lol right on, neither would my brothers that are in it

[DoctorThursday]

I apologize for not thanking AE.BOT. for his kind posting of this new song. Thanks very much.

It is a very interesting composition. It will take some studying, moreover I think I will probably need to hear it with the tune in order to synch up on the unusual phrasing. (If you think this one is tough, try to imagine what Marching Along sounds like just from the words!)

It is funny to think that the first Beta songbook came from a contest. It has been a while since I read wither one, but I seem to recall that the last "red" songbook still had one of those from that first song book. Note I mean the book, not the very ancient "card"... a dangerous thing, if you ask me - the kind of thing that will make you grab your tie!

Doctor Thursday (whoever you are),

If you wish to listen to the song, I made a slideshow that plays with the song and posted it on myspace, so you can go to http://www.myspace.com/___kai___ and listen to it there. Who are you anyway?

There comes a time in the life of every man
to make the choice if he'll join the beta ban
Now we are in and we will lead the way
for the betas who will come another day

from time to time we will slip and maybe fall
but there to help us will be betas one and all

Now every brother of Beta Theta Pi
Proudly stand and rejoice in your voices cry

and all you brothers unite
and we will follow the light
that guides us deep into the depths of phi kai phi
and all the memories we share
these beta bonds will not tear
for all eternity the beta badge is what we will wear

forever and in everything we do
we will be respected as the men who were always true
from 1839 through the day we die
we will be linked together in Beta Theta Pi

Now every brother of Beta Theta Pi
Proudly stand and rejoice in your voices cry

and all you brothers unite
and we will follow the light
that guides us deep into the depths of phi kai phi
and all the memories we share
these beta bonds will not tear
for all eternity the beta badge is what we will wear

there is a love that you'll find
in the hands of a guide
of beta theta pi

by the time of the light?!?!?
Beta Brothers shine
youll find this deep in the depths of phi kai phi

and all you brothers unite
and we will follow the light
that guides us deep into the depths of phi kai phi
and all the memories we share
these beta bonds will not tear
for all eternity the beta badge is what we will wear

So Later on in your life
You'll have three kids and a wife
and when you walk right by
you'll brush your brow
and he'll grab his tie

and all you brothers unite
and we will follow the light
that guides deep into the depths of phi kai phi
and all the memories we share
these beta bonds will not tear
for all eternity the beta badge is what we will wear

There comes a time in the life of every man
To make the choice if they’ll join the Beta band
Now we are in and we shall lead the way
For the Betas who will come another day
From time to time we will slip and maybe fall
But there to help us will be Betas, one and all
Now every brother of Beta Theta Pi
Proudly stand and rejoice in your oasis cry

Chorus:
And all you brothers unite
And we will follow the light
That guides us deep into the depths of phi kai phi
And all the memories we share
These Beta bonds will not tear
For all eternity the Beta Badge is what we will wear

Forever and in everything we do
We’ll be respected as the men who were always true
From 1839 through the day we die
We’ll be linked together in Beta Theta Pi
Now every brother of Beta Theta Pi
Proudly stand and rejoice in your voices cry

Chorus

And there’s a love that you’ll find
In the hands of the guide of Beta Theta Pi
And by the time that binds the beta brothers shine
You’ll find us deep within the depths of phi kai phi

Chorus

So later on in your life
When you’ll have three kids and a wife
But when you walk right by
You’ll brush your bow and he’ll grab his tie

Chorus
