ODE TO A PLEDGE

Oh me, oh my, I wonder why

This Hell Week's got to be -

Oh me, oh my, how do I sigh;

It's hard on my anatomy.

"Bend over here and touch the floor."

A swing and a swat, and guess who's sore...

It's not the actives - that's for sure -

Who need the strength so they'll endure.

For it's just us pledges who're not so hot

When the actives begin their swat, swat, swat...

But I guess it's all for the best, because

We ain't had a lickin' since we left our Paws!
