Dear Mother, this Plas is a terrible place

Found a Peanut
Four Strong Winds

Goodbye Hoss
Green and Yellow

Honey, you can't love one
Head and Shoulders

I'll Sing you One O
I've got Sixpence
I love a bonny Sausage
I've lost the Doe of my Clarinet
If it's a Climbing you'd go
I still appreciate you
I went to the Animal Fair
I saw the Old Homestead and Places I Love
I'm a Tea Cup
I'm a Tea pot, Short and Stout
I am Crackers
It's a long way to the Pawn Shop

Lavender Trousers
Leaving on a Jet Plane
Little Cabin in the Wood

My Girl's a Corker

On top of Old Smokey
Old McDonald had a Farm
One day I was Walking with my Uncle Jim
One day I took my Mother-in-Law
Oh, there's more Fish in the Sea

Rabbit ain't got no tail at all

She'll be coming round the mountain
She packed up my Jacket
Sons of the Sea
Side by Side
Summer holidays
Show me the Way to go Home

To the House we know as Plasy
The sweetest Girl I ever Saw
There's a Hole in my Bucket
There were Ten in the Bed
Ten Green Bottles
Three Chocolate Eclairs
Three Blue Pigeons
The Bear went over the Mountain
They scraped him off the Mountain like a pound of strawberry jam
Three Jews
There's an Old Mill by the Stream
Toreador

Under the Lilac she Played her Guitar

What's the use of Wearing Braces
When Irish Eggs are Frying
With my Hand on Myself
When Ever you see a Hearse go by
Woman in a Church Yard sat
What can you do?
Walls' Ices

You can't put your Muck in our Dustbin
You're the Top

1. To the house we know as Plasy

To the house we know as Plasy,
To the hills we know so well,
To dear Everest, the Rec. and Rapture Heights.
See the Plasites all assembled with their voices raised on high
In the serenade they sing there every night.

Yes, the magic of their singing
Of the songs we know so well,
Goodnight Ladies, Through the Night, and all the rest.
We will serenade our Plasy while life and voice shall last
And agreed that dear Old Plas is first and best.

There’s a lovely old house in the heart of Wales,
Plas, Plas, Plas;
And it stands in the mist of the hills and dales,
Plas, Plas, Plas.
Friendships are lasting, memories dear,
Days full of joy and never a tear,
And in my heart it is ever clear,
Plas, Plas, Plas.

2. Oh, someday we’ll go back again to Plasy

Oh, someday we’ll go back again to Plasy,
Maybe next year when we get our summer break,
Just to see again the sunrise over Snowdon,
And to watch the moonlight gleam on Cwellyn Lake.

Just to hear again the gong that sounds for breakfast
And see the hungry mob rush in to eat.
Just to see the knitting gang who venture climbing
And to hear their heartfelt cries of “Oh my feet”.

For the songs we’ve sung each evening here at Plasy
Will linger in my memories thro' the years,
And the fond and after sad farewells at weekends
And the Plas romances we saw end in tears.

For the winter months will find us sitting longing
For Old Plas, the Blue Pool, and dear Rapture Heights.
Of those sandwiches we had on top of Tryfan
And those "Down and Ups” we took 'most every night.

The comradeship and friends we found at Plasy
Will fill our hearts in lonely days with cheer
And we'll say as all true Plasites say when leaving,
We coma back again for certain never fear.

3. What’s the use of wearing braces,

What’s the use of wearing braces,
Vests and pants and boots with laces.
Spats and hats you buy in places
Down in Brompton Road,
What’s the use of shirts of cotton,
Studs that always get forgotten.
These affairs are simply rotten,
Better far is WOAD

Woad’s the stuff to show men,
Woad to scare your foemen.
Boil it to a brilliant blue
And rub it in your back and your abdomen.
Ancient Briton never hit on
Anything as good as Woad to fit on.
Necks or knees, or where you sit on,
Tailors, you be blowed.

Romans came across the channel
All wrapped up in tin and flannel
Half a pint of Woad per man’ll
Dress you more than these,
Saxon you can waste your stitches
Building beds for bugs in britches.
We have Woad to clothe us, which is not a nest for fleas.

Romans keep your armours, Saxons your pyjamas.
Hairy coats were meant for goats, gorillas, yaks, retriever dogs and Lamas.
Tramp up Snowdon with your Woad on, never mind if you be rained or blowed on.
Never want a button sewed on, Go it Ancient B’s.

4. He gave her kisses

Two .... That will do
Three .... Deary me.
Four .... Give me more.

5. Mrs. Jones, she had a mangle

Oh, I had a brother Mike, He did ride a motor bike,
And he rode from here to Gower, in a quarter of an hour.
Did you ever see, etc…

Oh, I had a sister Phyllis, Who did work at Pontardulais,
But the boss he had to sack her, ‘cos he caught her chewing bacca.
Did you ever see, etc.

Oh, I had a brother Trevor, Who was very, very clever.
He could play a one string fiddle, up the sides and down the middle,
Did you ever see, etc..

Oh, I had a sister Anna, Who did play the grand piana,
And when she did play full presto, all the seams burst on her vesto.
Did you. ever see, etc.,

Oh, I had a brother Dennis, Who was very fond of tennis.
He was also fond of swimming, but was fonder still of women.
Did you ever see, etc.

6. The Sweetest Girl I Ever Saw

So cheek to cheek, and jaw by jaw, We both sipped cider through a straw.
So cheek to cheek. and jaw by jaw, We both sipped cider through a straw.

And now I've got a mother-in-law, Through sipping cider through a straw.
And now I’ve got a mother-in-law, Through sipping cider through a straw.

7. I know what your looking for

Oh, in these lavender trousers, I've often skipped and skated.
I've wept and slept, slept and wept, And twice been vaccinated.
Drunk white wine and champagne, Been up the pole and down the drain.
I won the heart of Mary Jane, in these old lavender trousers.
Late last night I went down to Liptons, Folks said look here’s someone!
Who’s that man in the lavender trousers, Henry VIII or Lipton 's pig.
I nipped round the counter and while I wasn’t seen,
Down my legs I stuffed five eggs and a roll of margarine.
Oh, in these old lavender trousers, it was really shocking,
The margarine was turning green and trickling down my stocking.
Lipton sent for the man in blue, for all those eggs were hatching through.
And all the little chicks went “Cock-adoodle-doo,
In these old lavender trousers.

Late last month I went down to Bournemouth.
I hadn’t got a case nor a portmanteau,
So I packed my things in my lavender trousers. I 'm a walking case you know.
As we neared the station my wife she said to me,
“ Gee Jim, don’t pay for the kid, let’s try and smuggle him in”.
So in these old lavender trousers, we stuffed our little Sammy,
Walked right through, paid for two, Me and his dear Mammy.
All went well till the young hound, Got me pinched and fined a pound,
When he poked his nose through a hole he’d found
In these old lavender trousers,

8. I’ll Sing You one O

Two, two the lily-white boys, Clothed all in green O.
Three, three the rivals,
Four for the Gospel makers.
Five for the cymbals at your door,
Six for the six proud walkers.
Seven for the seven stars in the sky,
Eight for the April rainers,
Nine for the nine bright shiners,
Ten for the ten commandments.
Eleven for the eleven that went to Heaven,
Twelve for the twelve apostles.

27. Cocaine Bill and Morphine Sue

Chorus:
Singing honey have a sniff, have a sniff on me, Honey have a sniff on me.
They came from Broadway into Maine, just in search of their cocaine.
They came to a drug store painted green, the sign outside said, “No Morphine".
They cane to a drug store finished in oak, the sign outside said, “No more Coke”.

Then in a river side by aide, they committed suicide.

Now in a graveyard on a hill, there lies the body of Cocaine Dill,

And in the graveyard by his side, there lies the body of his Morphine bride.

Ashes to ashes and dust to diet, if you snow don’t get you, then the Morphine must.

The moral of the story goes to show, there ain’t no sense in sniffing snow.

And now that hankies are so scarce, I think we’ll have another verse.

28. On top of Old Smokey

A thief he will rob you and take all you have,
But a false-hearted lover will drive you to the grave.
The grave will decay you and turn you to dust.
Not one man in a million a poor girl can trust.

They’ll hug you and kiss you and tell you more lies
Than the cross—ties on railroads or the stars in the skies.
They’ll tell you they love you to give your heart ease,
But the minute your back’s turned they’ll court who they please.

On top of old smokey, all covered in snow
I lost my true lover through courting too slow.
Bury me on old Smokey, old Smokey so high,
There the wild birds in heaven can hear my sad cry.

29. My girl’s a corker

Ta-ra-ra-ra, Ta-ra-ra-ra-ra.

She’s got a pair of eyes, just like two custard pies.

She’s got a big red nose, just like a blooming rose.

She’s got a pair of ears, just like two chandeliers.

She's got a pair of lips, just like two greasy chips.

She’s got a pair of shoulders, just like two mountain boulders.

She’s got a pair of arms, just like two waving palms.

She’s got a pair of hands, just like two frying pans.

She’s got a pair of hips, just like two battle ships.

She’s got a pair of legs, just like two brandy kegs.

She’s got a pair of feet, just like two plates of meat.

30. Whenever you see a hearse go by

It’s quite alright for about a week,
And then you coffin begins to leak.

The worms crawl in and the worms crawl out
They go in thin and they come out 8 tout.

Your eyes fall in and your teeth fall out,
Your brains come trickling down your snout.

Your body turns a ghastly green,
The puss comes trickling out like cream.

31. They scraped him off the mountain like a pound of strawberry jam

They scraped him off the mountain like a pound of strawberry jam (repeat twice)
And he ain’t going to climb no more.

Chorus:
Glory, Glory, what a horrible way to die, (repast twice)
And he ain’t going to climb no more.

They packed him in a rucksack and they sent him home to Mum,

They telescoped his vertebrae into a salmon tin.

I’d like to meet the guy who put the clinkers in his boots.

I’d like to meet the guy who said that nylon wouldn’t stretch.

I’d like to meet the girl who tied the love knot in his rope.

32. If it’s a Climbing you’d Go

You’re a thousand feet high
And you’re nearing the sky,
And you can’t get a grip on the shale.
While a few feet away there’s a smashing belay.
T'was all for the want of a nail.

33. Under the lilac

Under the lilac she played her guitar,
He sat down beside her and smoked a cigar.
He said that he loved her, but oh how he lied !
She said she believed him and oh how she sighed.
They were to be married, but somehow she died.
He went to the funeral just for the ride.
He sat on her tombstone and laughed till he cried.
The tombstone fell over and squish squash he died.
She went to heaven and flip flap she flied,
He went to t’other place and frizzled and fried.
The moral of the story is don’t tell a lie,
For if you do, you will frizzle and fry.
But if you don’t, then flip flap you’ll fly,

34. Old McDonald had a farm

Old McDonald had a farm, eei, eei, oh.
And on this farm he had some *** , eei, eei, oh.
Down by the sea, where the watermelons grow,
Back to my home I dare not go,
For if I do, my mother will say; What will she say? "Oh!”
Johnny, get your gun, there’s a bear in the garden,
Lying on his back with his tummy to the sun, singing
Old McDonald had a farm, eei, eei, oh.

*** Insert names of Animals.

Where shall we bury thee, my pretty one?

In the woods, dear mother. (Three tines)

What colour flowers do you want, Henry, my son?
What colour flowers do you want, my pretty one?

Green and yellow. (Three times)

36. A soldier and a sailor were walking one day

39. Mary had some marmalade

Mary had some marmalade and Mary had some jam.
Mary had some potted meat and Mary had some spam.
Mary had some lemonade and Mary had some beer, and then
Mazy wondered why she felt so queer.

Whoopsie came the marmalade and woopsie came the jam.
Whoopsie cane the potted meat and whoopsie came the span.
Whoopsie came the lemonade and whoopsie came the beer,
And then Mary knew just why she felt so queer.

My breakfast lies over the ocean, my dinner lies over the sea,
And if I continue this motion, Oh what will become of my tea?
Steward, steward, Oh bring back my basin to me!

My brother leant over the gas tank,
The contents he wanted to see.
He struck up a match to assist him,
Oh bring back my brother to me!

My father makes counterfeit money,
My mother brews synthetic gin,
My sister sells kisses to sailors.
Oh boy, how the money rolls in!

My uncle’s a Methodist parson,
saving young ladies from sin.
He will save you a blonde for a shilling.
Oh boy, how the money rolls in!

I’ve drunk all your synthetic gin,
I've tried all your flounces for shillings,
And now what a mess l am in !

Never eat your Plas-y-pud!

Dear Mother, this Plas is a terrible place,
The organisation’s a “bloomin’” disgrace.
At eight in the morning you’re dragged out of bed,
By eleven in the evening you’re nearly half dead.
The Excursion leaders, they rant and they shout,
They shout about things they know nothing about.
And for all that they do here they might as well be
Where the mountains of Mourne sweep down to the sea.

54B. Be kind to your web footed friends

54C. Nobody loves me

54D. Woman in the church yard sat

55. Heads and shoulders

56. Toreador

57. Never spit into the wind

58. What can you do ?

59. I’m a tea cup

I’m a raindrop, I’m a raindrop.
I’m a raindrop, yes I am.
But I’d rather be a raindrop than a drip.

60. I’m a tea pot

61. There’s more fish in the sea

62. I am crackers

63. Walls' ices

Walls’ ices, Walls’ ices,
Elderado, Elderado.
Stop me and buy one,
stop me and buy one,
" But we have no money.”

64. Melancholy Flower

To the tune of "Frere Jacques"

Life is but a, Life is but a
Melancholy flower, Melancholy flower
Life is but a melon, Life is but a melon,
Cauliflower, Cauliflower

65. Summer holidays

Summer holidays, summer holidays
In the mountains, in the mountains
Plas-y-Nant, Plas-y-Nant,
Come and see your Aunty Lena

(2 groups, group 2 starts after Group 1 sings line 1, Repeat)

66. I still appreciate you

Since I still appreciate you
Lets find love while we may
Because I know I'll hate you
When you are old and grey
So say you'll love me here and now
I'll make the most of that
Say love and trust me
For I know you'll disgust me
When you're old and getting fat.

An awful debility
A less than utility
A loss of mobility
Is a strong possibility

Add this liability
Of total hostility
Will lead to futility
And a loss of agility

For we'll soon reach senility
And the loss of ability

Your teeth will start to go dear
Your waist will start to spread
In twenty years or so dear
I'll wish that you were dead
I'll never love you then at all
The way I do today
So please remember
When I leave you in September
That I told you so in May.

67. Side by Side

Oh we ain't goin' climbin' on Aran
We just find the scenery too barren
Just Frank Thomas and me
Searching for tea
Side by Side

And we ain't goin' to run into danger
Seeing sunrise from the Ranger
We'll just stand on the lawn
Watching the dawn
Side by Side

You can keep your clinkers
Your haversack and such
Because we think you're just Stinkers
And thats not saying too much
So we'll stick to the jolly "C" party
Wearing pearls and a brooch
Sat in the coach
Side by Side

68. You'rr the Top

Music by Cole Porter

You're my guy -
You're my David Niven;
You're as high
As the top of Tryfan;
You're the Crackstone Rib, a walk on Crib Goch Ridge,
You're a second sweet, a pink receipt from Harold Bridge.
You're a show
Starring Stewart Grainger
You're the snow
On the Snowdon Ranger .
Compared to me you're a symphony to jazz;
You're really it; I've made my hit at Plas !

You're the queue
Lining up for brekker;
You're the new
Whiteway double-decker;
You're Caernarvon slate, Tom Walton's latest jest;
The "Majestic" stalls; the Swallow Falls, you're Borth=y=Gest.
You're a view
of the Aberglaslyn;
You're as smoo-
'Th as a jar of Vaselin
And you seem to be the epitome you should -
You're Haille Selassie, you're my Plas-y-Pud!

You're a flick
By the Brothers Warner;

You're my pick
You're my Sunset Corner;
You're the staff tea bell heard from the Elephant;
You're Everest, the Rec, The Nest, you're Plas-y-Nant.
This affair
Won't just last an hour;
We're a pair -
Glyders Fach and Fawr
We're hand-in-hand. a saucer and it's cup -
Let's tell the town that you're my down-and-up.

69. Four strong winds (Neil Young)

Thanks to Dave Hebb for reminding us of this one

Four strong winds that blow lonely, Seven seas that run high,
All these things that don't change, Come what may.
But our good times are all gone,
And I'm bound for moving on.
I'll look for you if I'm ever back this way.
Think I'll go out to Alberta,
Weather's good there in the fall.
Got some friends that I can go to working for,
Still I wish you'd change your mind
If I asked you one more time,
But we've been through that a hundred times or more.

If I get there before the snow flies,
And if things are going good,
You could meet me if I send you down the fare.
But if you wait until it's winter,
It will be no good
'Cause that wind sure can blow way out there.

70. Leaving on a Jet Plane (John Denver)

Thanks to Dave Hebb for reminding us of this one

All my bags are packed
Im ready to go
Im standin here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin
Its early morn
The taxis waitin
Hes blowin his horn
Already Im so lonesome
I could die

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that youll wait for me
Hold me like youll never let me go
cause Im leavin on a jet plane
Dont know when Ill be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

Theres so many times Ive let you down
So many times Ive played around
I tell you now, they dont mean a thing
Evry place I go, Ill think of you
Evry song I sing, Ill sing for you
When I come back, Ill bring your wedding ring

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that youll wait for me
Hold me like youll never let me go
cause Im leavin on a jet plane
Dont know when Ill be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

Now the time has come to leave you
One more time
Let me kiss you
Then close your eyes
Ill be on my way
Dream about the days to come
When I wont have to leave alone
About the times, I wont have to say

Oh, kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that youll wait for me
Hold me like youll never let me go
cause Im leavin on a jet plane
Dont know when Ill be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

But, Im leavin on a jet plane
Dont know when Ill be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
