Lyrics:

Spoken: This one time at baaaaand caaaaaaaaaaaaamp~!

Started thunderstorming and the rain began to pour
Got into my cabin and there was a dead frog on the floor
It's wet and smelly and I just want to go home
But I'm here on this field

My feet hurt and we're whining
But that's okay 'cause the sun's still shining
(Is that a good thing?)
Standing at set all day long
We've got nothing better to do than sing this song

Frank up on the super stand looks like Captain Morgan in the sky
Drank a gallon of water but my mouth is still dry
It's wet and smelly and I just want to go home
But now it's time to park and blow

My feet hurt and we're whining
But that's okay 'cause the sun's still shining
(That's really not a good thing.)
Standing at set all day long
We've got nothing better to do than sing this song.

Up and down and up and down and up and down the hill all day
Couldn't go to sleep last night and now I can't stay awake
It's wet and smelly and I just want to go home
But we're here at band camp....

(Solo): My lips are bleeding
From playing so hard my head is reeling
From memorizing sets to memorizing notes
There's so much to do....
(crying)

(All): My feet hurt and we're whining
But that's okay 'cause the sun's still shining
(My SKIN is BURNING!!!)
Standing at set all day long
We've got nothing better to do than sing this song

(knee slapping interlude)

I just lost The Game....

I'm pretty sure Mr. French was taping it yesterday before the buses left. <:

I have a good idea: get together in like a garrage or something where there isn't that much backround noise and video tape it there Q-Tip
