This is the song Alister, Euan and I wrote on the last night at camp, to the tune of an old army song.

Chorus:
It's the end of 7B camp life
Gee I don't wanna go home.

On Monday we went walking
we saw a tiger snake
Ned Johnson walked right past it
and threw it in the lake

[Chorus]

On Wednesday we went hiking
it was really really long
the kids are all weaklings
the teachers are so strong

[Chorus]

On Thursday we went riding
our legs are really sore
we've had lots of fun
we wish for one week more

[Chorus]


The kids groaned when we sang that to them, deliberately off-key. Then they entertained us with a cute accounting of our four hour bushwalk on Wednesday, a wrestling match (the kids were all bundled up in their sleeping bags to bash each other - obviously an item by the boys), a rather avant-garde (no one understood it) performance by George, and a red cordial sculling competition (red cordial is bad, the kids get all hypo on it).

I had fun.
