hello muddah hello faddah
here i am at camp granada
camp is very entertaining
and they say we’ll have some fun if it stops raining
i went hiking with joe spivy
he developed poison ivy
you’ll remember leonard skinner
he got ptomaine poisoning last night after dinner
all the counselors hate the waiters
and the lake has alligators
and the head coach wants no sissies
so he reads to us from something called ulysses
how i don’t want this should scare ya
but my bunkmate has malaria
you’ll remember jeffrey hardy
they’re about to organize a searching party
take me home oh muddah faddah
take me home i hate granada
don’t leave me out in the forest where
i might get eaten by a bear
take me home i promise i will not make noise
or mess the house with other boys
oh please don’t make me stay
i’ve been here one whole day
dearest faddah darling muddah
how’s my precious little bruddah
let me come home if you miss me
i would even let aunt bertha hug and kiss me
wait a minute it’s stopped hailing
guys are swimming guys are sailing
playing baseball gee that’s better
muddah faddah kindly disregard this letter
