You'll Come On the C.U. Houseparty With Me

(To the tune of Waltzing Matilda in a Reggae Rhythm)

This song is dedicated to Alex, but he wishes to remain anonymous.

There once was a fresher, new at University,
Sitting very quietly eating his tea,
When along came ****, and he sat down right next to him,
You'll Come on the C.U. Houseparty with me.

chorus:
C.U. Houseparty, C.U. Houseparty
You'll Come on the C.U. Houseparty with me.
(repeat last two lines of verse)

Up got the fresher, and walked across to Faraday,
Sat down in an armchair and was watching T.V.,
**** turned the sound down and told him very pointedly,
You'll Come on the C.U. Houseparty with me.

chorus:

He jumped into his car and drove down into Manchester,
Parked it in the Arndale multi-storey,
**** came running and shouted very breathlessly,
You'll Come on the C.U. Houseparty with me.

chorus:

The fresher joined the Hiking Club, and caught a bus to Pakistan,
He climed K1 and K2 and was halfway up K3,
He thought he'd met a yeti, when suddenly it spoke to him,
You'll Come on the C.U. Houseparty with me.

chorus:

He flew to th moon, but cost him all his grant cheque,
He found that **** had been waiting patiently,
At last he relented, but back came the answer,
There's four pounds deposit, you'll pay it to me.

new chorus:
Four pounds deposit, Four pounds deposit,
There's four pounds deposit, you'll pay it to me.
At last he relented, but back came the answer,
There's another fifteen quid to come as well, Pal !
