Alma Mater



As I go travelling down lifes highway
whatever course my fortunes may foretell
I shall not go alone on my way
for thou shall always be with me Rydell

When I seek rest from worldly matters
in palace or in hovel I may dwell
and though my bed be silk or tatters
my dreams shall always be of thee Rydell

Through all the years, Rydell
And tears, Rydell
We give three cheers Rydell for thee

Through everything Rydell
We cling, Rydell
And sing, Rydell to thee

Alma Matter Parody

"I saw a dead skunk on the highway
And I was goin' crazy from the smell
Cause when the wind was blowin' my way
It smelled just like the halls of old Rydell
And if you've gotta use the toilet
And later on you start to scratch like hell
Take off your underwear and boil it
Cause you've got memories of old Rydell

Girls:

I can't explain Rydell, this pain Rydell
Is it ptomaine Rydell gave me

Guys:

Is it v.d. Rydell
Could be Rydell

All:

You outta see the faculty
If Mister Clean, Rydell
Had seen Rydell
He'd just turn green and disappear
I'm outta luck Rydell
Dead duck Rydell
I'm stuck Rydell, right here"

Those Magic Changes


(Doody)
What's that playing on the radio?
Why do I start swaying to and fro?
I have never heard that song before
But if I don't hear it anymore

Its still familiar to me sends a thrill right
Through me cuz those chords remind me of
the night that I first fell in love too
Those magic changes
My heart arranges
A melody thats never the same
A melody thats calling your name
And begs you please come back to me
Please return to me dont go away again or
make them play again the music i wanna hear
is once again you whisper in my ear
ooo my darlin'

I'll be waiting by the radio
You'll come back to me some day I know
Been so long since our last goodbye
But I'm singing as I cry-iy-iy

While the bass is sounding while the drums are pounding
Beating of my broken heart will rise to first place in the
charts
Oh my heart arranges
Oh those magic changes

Ooh.....

Freddy My Love

(Marty)

Freddy my love, I miss you more than words can say.

Freddy my love, please keep in touch while you're away.

Hearing From you can make the day so much better,

Getting a souvenir or maybe a letter.

I really flipped over the grey cashmere sweater,

Freddy my love, Freddy my love, Feddy my love, freddy my love.

Freddy you know you're absence makes me feel so blue.

That's okay though, you're presents make me think of you.

My mom will have a heart attack when she catches,

Those pedal pushers with the black leather patches.

Oh how I wish I had a jacket that matches.

Freddy my love, Feddy my love, Freddy my love, Freddy my love.

Don't keep your letters from me, I thrill to every line.

Your spellings kinda crummy, but honey, so is mine.

I treasure every gifty, the ring is really nifty.

You say it cost you fifty, so you're thrifty,

I don't mind.

Freddy you see. You'll hold me in your arms someday.

(freddy my love)

And I will be wearing you're lacy lingerie.

(freddy i'm yours)

Thinking about it, my hearts pounding already.

Look At Me, I'm Sandra Dee

(Rizzo)

Look at me, I'm Sandra Dee
Lousy with virginity
Won't go to bed 'til I'm legally wed
I can't; I'm Sandra Dee

Watch it! Hey I'm Doris Day
I was not brought up that way
Won't come across,
Even Rock Hudson lost
His heart to Doris Day

I don't drink (no)
Or swear (no)
I don't rat my hair (eew)
I get ill from one cigarette
(cough, cough, cough)
Keep your filthy paws
Off my silky draws
Would you pull that crap with Annette?

As for you Troy Donahue,
I know what you wanna do
You got your crust
I'm no object of lust
I'm just plain Sandra Dee

Elvis, Elvis, let me be!
Keep that pelvis far from me!
Just keep your cool
Now your starting to drool
Hey Fongool, I'm Sandra Dee!

Sandy:Are you making fun of me Riz?
Rizzo:Some people are so touchy!

It's Raining On Prom Night

(SANDY)

I was deprived of a young girl's dream,

by the cruel force of nature from the blue.

Instead of a night

full of romance serene,

all i got was a runny nose and asiatic flu.

chorus

It's raining on prom night.

My hair is a mess,

it's running

all over

my taffeta dress,

it's wilting the quilting,

on my maiden form.

And mascara flows all down my nose

because of the storm

I don't even have my corsage.

oh gee

It fell down a sewer with my sisters ID

Yes it's raining on prom night.

Oh my darling what can i do?

I miss you.

It's raining rain from the skies,

and it's raining real tears from my eyes,

over you.

Oh dear god, make him feel the same way i do right now.

Make him want to see me again.

Oh what can I do.

It's raining rain from the skies

it's raining tears from my eyes over you

raining ooooooh

tears from my eyes over you

raining ooooooooh

raining on prom night

 

Born To Hand Jive

Before I was born late one night,

My Papa said everything's alright

The doctor laughed,when mama laid down,

With a stomach bouncing all around

Mama gave birth to the hand-jive

I could barely walk when I milked a cow

When I was three, I pushed a plow

While chopping wood I moved my legs,

And I started dancing while I gathered eggs

Townfolk clapped, I was only five
he'll out dance em' all
"He's a born hand-jive!"

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah - everybody!
Born to hand-jive, baby,
Born to hand-jive baby- yeah!

How low can you go?
How low can you go?
How low can you go?
How low can you go?

Higher, higher, higher and higher
Now can you hand-jive, baby?
Oh can you hand-jive, baby?
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah
Born to hand-jive, oh yeah!

 

Beauty School Dropout

(Frenchie)Spoken:

You know a guardian angel, like Debbie Renoylds have in "Tammie"

(Angel)

Your story sad to tell,

A teenage ne'er do well,

Most mixed up non-delinquent on the block!

Your future's so unclear now,

What's left of your career now?

Can't even get a trade in on your smile!

Angels: (La lalala lalala lalala...)

Beauty school dropout,

No graduation day for you.

Beauty school dropout,

Missed your midterms and flunked shampoo!

Well at least you could have taken time, to wash and clean

your clothes up,

After spending all that dough to have the doctor fix your nose

up!

Baby get moving (Baby get movin),

Why keep your feeble hopes alive?

What are you proving (What are you provin)?

You've got the dream but not the drive.

If you go for your diploma, you could join a steno pool.

Turn in your teasin comb and go back to high school!

Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout),

Hanging around the corner store.

Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout),

It's about time you knew the score.

Well they couldn't teach you anything,

You think you're such a looker,

But no customer would go to you unless she was a hooker!

Baby don't sweat it (Don't sweat it),

You're not cut out to hold a job.

Better forget it (Forget it),

Who wants their hair done by a slob?

Now your bangs are curled, your lashes whirled, but still the

world is cruel.

Wipe off that angel face and go back to high school!

Baby don't blow it,

Don't put my good advice to shame.

Baby you know it,

Even Dear Abby'd say the same!

Now I've called the shot, get off the block, I really gotta

fly!

Gotta be going to that, malt shop, in the sky!

Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)

Go back to high school

Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)

Go back to high school

Beauty school dropout (Beauty school dropout)

Go back to high school

 

Alone At A Drive In Movie

(Danny)

I'm all alone
At the drive-in movie
It's a feelin' that ain't too groovy
Watchin' werewolves without you... (werewolf howl)
Gee, it's no fun
Drinkin' beer in the backseat
All alone just ain't too neat
At the passion pit wanting you.
And when the intermission elf moves the clock's hands
While he's eating everything sold at the stands,
When there's one minute to go
'Till the lights go down low,
I'll be holding the speaker knobs
Missing you so-o-o!
Can't believe it,
Unsteamed windows I can see through.
Might as well be in an igloo,
'Cause the heater doesn't work...
As good as you...
(Baby, come back)

There Are Worse Things I Could Do

(Rizzo)

There are worse things I could do,

Than go with a boy or two.

Even though the neighborhood thinks I'm trashy,

And no good,

I suppose it could be true,

But there are worse things I could do.

I could flirt with all the guys,

Smile at them and bat my eyes.

Press against them when we dance,

Make them think they stand a chance,

Then refuse to see it through.

That's a thing I'd never do.

I could stay home every night,

Wait around for Mr. Right.

Take cold showers every day,

And throw my life away,

On a dream that won't come true.

I could hurt someone like me,

Out of spite or jealousy.

I dont steal and I dont lie,

But I can feel and I can cry.

A fact I'll bet you never knew.

But to cry in front of you,

That's the worst thing I could do.
