On Top of Spaghetti (song, tune: On Top of Old Smokie) ***NEW***

On top of spaghetti,
All covered with cheese,
I lost my poor meatball,
When somebody sneezed.

It rolled off the table,
And onto the floor,
And then my poor meatball,
Rolled out of the door.

It rolled in the garden,
And under a bush,
And then my poor meatball,
Was nothing but mush.

The mush it was tasty,
As tasty could be,
And then the next summer,
It grew to a tree.

The tree was all covered,
All covered with moss,
And on it grew meatballs,
And tomato sauce.

So if you eat meatballs,
All covered with cheese,
Hold onto your meatballs,
Lest somebody sneese.

Ghost Chickens in the Sky ***NEW***

A chicken farmer went out one dark and dreary day.
He rested by the coup as he went along his way.
When all at once a rotten egg hit him in the eye.
It was the sight he dreaded...
Ghost chickens in the sky.

Bok, bok, bok, bok.
Bok, bok, bok, bok.
Ghost Chickens in the sky.

The farmer has raised chickens since he was twenty-four.
Working for the Colonel for thirty years or more.
Killin' all those chickens and sending them to fry.
Now they want revenge...
Ghost chickens in the sky.

Bok, bok, bok, bok.
Bok, bok, bok, bok.
Ghost chickens in the sky.

Their feet were black and shiny, their eyes were burning red.
They had not meat or feathers, these chickens all were dead.
They picked the farmer up and he died by the claw.
They cooked him extra crispy...
and served him with cole slaw.

Bok, bok, bok, bok.
Bok, bok, bok, bok.
Ghost chickens in the sky.

    "Bandana care and uses" ***NEW***

    SET UP:

    several scouts come out and line up, all have bandanas,
    except one who has a banana (preferably, really ripe!)

    Scout at one end does the talking, others follow,
    scout at other end follows as well as he can, but, with a banana.

    SKIT:

    We are here to show you how to care for and use a bandana.
    OK, everybody take out your bandanas.
    NOTE: the scout on the other end (with the banana) is not paying attention and thus does not quite hear right, but, attempting to keep up, fumbles in his pocket and pulls out a banana.

    Now, everybody unfold your bandana (hold by one corner and shake)
    Observe it has two sides (show both sides)
    Now, gather it in the middle and fold it in half (do it)
    Now, it can be used to wipe your brow (pat your forehead)
    OK, unfold it again (hold by one end and shake)
    . . .
    . . . continue, showing how to make a neckerchief . . .
    . . . maybe even show how to make a head band . . .
    . . . maybe even show how to clean your ear . . .
    . . .
    To cary it you fold it in half (fold it in half)
    And fold it in half again (fold it in half again)
    Now, put it into your pocket (put it into pocket)
    Make sure it is in there good (slap pocket)
    This concludes the lesson, thanks for your attention (exit)

    Got a Whale of a Tale
    (from JOULES VERN'S 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA)

    Got a whale of a tale to tell you lads,
    A whale of a tale or two,
    'bout the flappin fish and the girls I've loved,
    On nights like this with a moon above,
    A whale of a tale and its all true,
    I swear by my tattoo.

    There was Mermaid Mini,
    Met her down in Madagascar,
    She would kiss me,
    Anytime that I would ask her,
    Then one evening her flame of love blew out,
    Well knock me down and pick me up,
    She swapped me for a trout!

    - refrain -

    There was Typhoon Tessie,
    Met her on the coast of Java,
    When we kissed I bubbled up like molten lava,
    Then she gave me the scare of my young life,
    Well knock me down and pick me up,
    She was the captain's wife!

    - refrain -

    There was harpoon Hannah,
    Had a face that made you shudder,
    Lips like fish hooks,
    And a nose just like a rudder,
    If I kissed her and held her tenderly,
    There's no sea monster big enough to ever frighten me!

    - refrain -

    The smiling young lady from Myaga
    (from In Harm's Way (with John Wayne))

    The smiling young lady from Myaga

    Went for a ride on a tiger

    And after the ride

    She wound up inside

    With her smile on the face of the tiger
