Maine at Princeton
November 7th, 1981
Princeton loses 44-55
[PUB performs as the University of Maine Band]
The Maine University Incognito Marching Band presents a salute to the majestic state of the future. Fabulous Maine, the state of destiny. “Fanfare” Many famous people have come from Maine. For example:
“Come on, Baby, Light My Fire” (Band forms an ‘M’) These people can be found in many interesting positions throughout the world. Some of the places are:
“Show Me the Way to Go Home” (Band forms an ‘A’) Maine residents believe in many abstract ideas, such as:
“I Want to Hold Your Hand” (Band forms an ‘I’) Some things that you can find back home in Maine remain:
“Rock Lobster” (Band forms an ‘N’) And now the for main course, the maine event — those main men in their mangy jackets, the P.U. Band.
[PUB as... the PUB]
Ladies and gentlemen, the Princeton University Band takes a long, hard look at Turkeys. Able to pluck victory from the beak of defeat, Reagan and his gaggle of gobbling advisors sent the AWACS winging their way on a pilgrimage to Saudi Arabia. But on the domestic scene, it’s not all gravy for “Turkeynomics,” a poultry excuse for a well-balanced economic diet. Forming a wishbone on the field, the Band hopes our student loans won’t be carved up.
“I Got Plenty of Nutton” (Band forms a breaking wishbone)
Basking away in C Floor, nerds are the second biggest flock of turkeys on campus. Up to their gizards in books, nerds are sandwiched between matrix analysis and mayonnaise and rarely dare to stick their mechanical pencil necks beyond their carrels. Forming Pi on the field, the Band salutes these whiz kids of Princeton and their ancient Athenian ancestors, the Geeks.
“Hard Day’s Night” (Band forms pi)
Turkeys and stuffing go together. So do stuffing and shirts. Speaking of the administration and the USG, birds of a feather flock together. In response to recent administration head that we appear better dressed the Band replies that without Creative Thinking and Originality there would be no fun whatsoever.
“Hey Look Me Over” (Band forms ‘CTO’ changing to ‘NFW’)
When it’s time to stuff your bird, many students find it necessary to trot to the U-Store candy counter. Although sometimes you feel like a nut, you can’t get anything when you’re on the stop list. We’re not talking turkey when we say that there are two things at Princeton you can depend on. Outrageous prices at the U-Store and musical satisfaction from the Princeton University Band, or your money back.
“National Emblem” (Band forms a concert shell)
