Yes, he did. “Poisoning Pigeons in the Park” is a classic.

Maybe the music isn’t that great, but I’ve always liked the line:
RAMMER JAMMER YELLO HAMMER
GIVE ‘EM HELL, ALABAMA!

His line from “National Brotherhood Week” is a classic:
Oh, the Protestants hate the Catholics
And the Catholics hate the Protestants
And the Hindus hate the Moslems
And everybody hates the Jews.
(Yes, Lehrer was a liberal, but then again I probably would have been a “liberal” then, too, it’s just that the liberals proceeded to take it way too far to the Left, over time)

My high school used the Michigan tune but different words. That's just so wrong, IMHO.

I agree is it is much better then Bow Down to Washington. Maybe they should just replace it with NIN's "Head Like a Hole" . ('Bow down before the one you serve....')

They had that one season of almost perfect football under fatty Mangino and started selling T-shirts that said KU Football A Winning Tradition since August.
I was there in the late sixties with Bobby Douglas, John Riggins and his brother Junior and their run at the Orange Bowl. Lived next door and played cards every day with John Zook and Joe Joe White.
I always say, just wait boys, Round Ball is comin.

“I like Penn States fight song Fight On State. Very catchy melody.”
