Princeton ties 17-17
Ladies and gentlemen, the Princeton University Band takes a long, hard look at the New Wave.
“Princeton Forward”
The new wave in politics depends on an old one. Recalling the words of a famous dad, “Son, if you want to make a splash in politics, don’t make waves,” we note that fahthah’s advice didn’t hold water. Asking the musical question, “Waiter, what’s this trout doing in my front seat?” the Band forms a VW on the field, suggesting that if junior had bought a love bug instead of been smitten by one, he might be gracing the Oval Office today.
“I’ll Never Fall in Love Again” (Band forms ‘VW’)
Displaying the kind of hard hitting nutritional savvy that got him elected, President Reagan has proposed a new wave of items masquerading as vegetables in school lunches. Such savory and tempting side dishes as baked stuffed pickle and mayonnaise au gratin would be served regularly, in addition to small bags of staples such as paper clips and metal shavings to provide iron and other essential nutrients. Thanks to some clear consummate testimony by the senator of soup, however, Congress mustered enough opposition to defeat the new proposal; which Reagan hoped they would pass with relish. Anticipating the reasons why ketchup is not a vegetable, the Band recognizes the importance of clear Heinz sight.
“The Horse” (Band forms 57)
Turning waves of federal spending into a sea of Red Lines, Mass Transit systems tunnel into the bedrock of city dwelling. Subways are, after all, a quick, reliable, and dependable way to go around Boston; just ask the Band. With modern building techniques, their construction can be easily and quickly accomplished with minimal disturbance or inconvenience to anyone important. Forming a subway token on the field, the Band slugs it to the MTBA and the Red Line extension project with hopes that all that digging in Harvard square will yield something more valuable than fareboxes.
“Classical Gas” (Band forms Boston T symbol)

It dessimates, irradiates, irradicates, eliminates, and even annihilates but still leaves your lovely buildings standing. How much would you expect to pay for an arsenal that can do all this? One billion? Ten billion? But wait, there’s so much more! Act now and you get this handsome B-1 bomber and these lovely silos in Utah to display your new toys in when not in use. Call toll-free before midnight tonight. Senators are standing by to accept your bribes. Visa, American Express, and Selective Service Cards accepted. This offer not available in stores.
