Shame on you!

Artist: Outkast
Song: Roses
Album: Speakerboxxx/ The Love Below


[Buy "Speakerboxxx/ The Love Below" CD]
[Verse One - Andre 3000]
Caroline! Caroline!
All the guys would say she's mighty fine
But mighty fine only got you somewhere half the time
And the other half either got you cursed out, or coming up short
Yeah, now dig this, even though
You'd need a golden calculator to divide
The time it took to look inside and realize that
Real guys go for real down to Mars girls, yeah!

[Chorus- Repeat 2x]
I know you'd like to thank your shit don't stank
But lean a little bit closer
See that roses really smell like boo-boo
Yeah, roses really smell like boo-boo

[Verse Two - Andre 3000]
Caroline! See she's the reason for the word "bitch"
I hope she's speeding on the way to the club
Trying to hurry up to get to some
Baller or singer or somebody like that
And try to put on her makeup in the mirror
And crash, crash, crash.. into a ditch! (Just Playing!)
She needs a golden calculator to divide
The time it took to look inside and realize that
Real guys go for real down to Mars girls, yeah!

[Chorus]

[Verse Three]
Well she's got a hotty body, but her attitude is potty
When I met her at a party she was hardly acting naughty
I said "Would you call me?"
She said "Pardon me, are you ballin'?"
I said "Darling, you sound like a prostitute pursing"
Oh so you're one them freaks, get geeked at the sight of ATM receipts
But game been peeped, dropping names she's weak
Trickin' off this bitch is lost
Must take me for a geek a quick way to eat
A neat place sleep, a rent-a-car for a week, a trick for a treat
Now go on the raw sex, my AIDS test is flawless
Regardless, we don't want to get involved with no lawyers
And judges just to hold grudges in a courtroom
I wanna see ya support bra not support you!
Better come back down to Mars
Girl, quit chasin' cars
What happens when the dough get so low
Bitch, you ain't that fine
No way.. no way.. no way

You are correct, Delta Gamma's flower is the cream-colored rose. Although when the ladies chose their symbol in the late 1800s, cream was considerably more yellow than it is today!

[ZetaBaby87]

Sigma Gamma Rho has the yellow tea rose.

[ragtimerose]

Yes, Beta Sigma Phi has the yellow rose, signifying friendship. Incidentally, the new Miss Texas receives yellow roses (of course!) when she is crowned.

It is. My husband is a Sigma Nu, his groomsmen wore them at our wedding.

Heh, just like Delta Nu. Do you guys have a secret pink chalice of sisterhood too?

"When was the last time you wore your yellow tea rose?"
"On the night of my initiation."
"Was the passing of the secret scented eternal flame of the goddess Delta Nu not the most moving experience?"
"Yes! Especially the part where we sipped--"
"From the secret pink chalice of sisterhood!"

[AKA_Monet]

Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. flower is the --The pink tea rose.

[BigRedBeta]

Beta Theta Pi's flower is officially the "June" or "Queen of the Prairie" Rose (it's pink).

The 1889 Convention selected the rose as our official flower. The Convention found its beauty symbolic of our principles and its hardiness suggestive of the universality of our moral aims.
