Come on in, the Chowder's Fine...
"Won't you bring back, Won't you bring back Mrs. Murphy's Chowder
It was tune full, every spoonful, make the yodel louder
After dinner Uncle Ben used to fill his fountain pen from a plate of Mrs. Murphy's Chowder
It had ice cream, cold cream, benzine, gasoline
Soup beans, string beans floating all around
Sponge cake, beef steak, mistake, stomache ache
cowbells, doorbells, beckon you to die
meatballs, fishballs, mothballs, cannon balls
Come on in, the chowder's fine"
Thursday, Arianna had her spring concert, for lower elementary school, grades 1-3. This is what they teach your kids when you send them to an expensive private school...someday, I'll ask Adam write an entry on Toe, Knee, Chest, Nut, which he sang years ago.

Whoa...and I thought public schools were full of "stuff"....That was definitely a memory challenge. The kids are surely getting a great education (sincerely} and you guys are doing a great job of parenting. I'm proud of you all. Love Aunt Joan

This tune reminds me of the song "Black Socks" that Cyndi & Debbie used to sing back in the day. If they don't learn it at school they'll pick it up at Youth Camp or somewhere else!
