Brown 2011
Princeton at Brown
October 15th, 2011
Princeton loses 0-34
Pregame:
Hey there, Brown Band, it’s the Princeton University Band!
(Band scrambles on)
Hi Brown Band. Did you have a good summer? Are you still majoring in awesome? We still have Jessica Kirschner’s brother, and the little Chu! I had a good time last night, did you? I liked when we sang. Remember when we played in the fountain? That was nice. You are welcome to go down to Jersey with us anytime. But maybe we are taking this too fast. I still don’t know how to feel about the E&M man’s cousin joining us. Anyway, here’s the question. Do you like us? Answer yes, no, or maybe. Forming a B for best love letter ever, the Band plays the Brown Cheering Song.
(Band forms B, plays “Brown Cheering Song”)
And now…
(Band forms Double-Double-Rotating-P, plays “Going Back to Nassau Hall”)
Run away, Band. Stand and cheer for the apples!
(Band runs away)
Halftime:
If you’re happy and you know it clap your hands! Okay everyone, it’s time to get happy, because it’s the Princeton University Band!
(Band marches on, plays “Princeton Forward March”)
Brown midterms are coming up, and the Band is taking a class called “Modern TV Culture.” The assignment was to create a rap about something we learned from modern TV that involves our communities, so we of course chose Jersey Shore.
Good afternoon to the Brown population.
To the members of the audience I give salutations.
I watched Jersey Shore, I gave into temptation.
It’s taking up all my time, thank god for grade inflation.
They give such good advice, I be taking dictation.
Those Italians are very good at abbreviation.
You gotta GTL all the time, even on vacation.
That’s how you become as cool as the Situation.
I take notes on their nightly altercations.
Snookie got a black eye, like one of those Dalmatians.
Of Jersey people it’s a misrepresentation.
These people are weird by 2 standard deviations.
Snookie fills me with consternation.
But Jwoww’s so hot, I’d give her a carnation.
I can’t interest those ladies in cross-pollenation.
So I just sit around and engage in mastercard purchases.
Though the plot experiences stagnation.
It still deserves an Emmy nomination.
This joke has no more time of duration.
So it’s time for us to get into formation.
For our song “Vehicle”, have anticipation.
Spinning our rims like the cast, the band forms our transportation.
(Band forms bus with spinning rims, plays “Vehicle”)
With the Occupy Wall Street protests gaining steam and spreading to other cities around the country, we’ve noticed some odd adaptations.
All these protesters seem to have a pessimistic view of the world right now. But the Band disagrees.
Forming a glass half full, the Band plays “I’m a Believer.”
(Band forms glass-half-full, plays “I’m a Believer”)
Run away, Band, before the Brown Band occupies you!

With the Occupy Wall Street protests gaining steam and spreading to other cities around the country, we’ve noticed some odd adaptations.
- Oscar is occupying Sesame Street to protest the successful green movement, which gives him less trash.
- Consumers are occupying Main Street, U.S.A…to protest the outrageous price of Mickey-related memorabilia. (Line cut for time)
- Ringo Starr is occupying Abbey Road to protest the fact that his career never left.
- Diabetics are occupying Rocky Road when they eat it.
- Band President Nicole Rafidi is occupying Rainbow Road because she really hates that level. (Line cut for time)
- Evangelicals are occupying Broadway because of Book of Mormon…’s lack of ticket availability.
- Philadelphia residents are occupying Market Street to protest the existence of Penn University.
- Road workers are occupying the Road to Hell over the rising cost of good intentions.
- Brown coeds are occupying Easy Street.
- Consumers with taste are occupying Hollywood Boulevard to protest a remake of Footloose. Seriously?
All these protesters seem to have a pessimistic view of the world right now. But the Band disagrees.
