THE BUTTON FACTORY
Back to the top of the Page

No melody, more of a chant with a fast, steady beat

CHORUS:
Hi, my name is Joe,
And I work at the button factory,
Got a wife, three kids - all brats,
And the boss he says to me:
He says, "Joe, are you busy?"
I say, "No."
He says, "Push this button with your __________"

WORDS & ACTIONS:
Left finger
Right finger
Left toe
Right toe

LAST CHORUS:

I say, "YES!"

DUNKIRK
Back to the top of the Page

Melody - It's a Long Way to Tipperrary

It's a long way to Tipperrary,
It's a long way to go,
It's a long way to Tipperrary,
I walked it, so I know,
Good bye, Sticky Willie,
Farewell, pubic hair,
It's a long way to Tipperrary,
And I've never been there.

Note - the idea is to get the circle singing and marching while re-enacting Dunkirk. During the song various members act out pieces of the story while everyone else sings and marches. It helps if you've seen it performed before. Parts are:

Sperm in soldier's ball bag
Dog barking
Cock crowing
Distant marching (stamp feet)
Sergeant shouting
Luftenbastards attacking (several hashers wheel left in a circle shooting at everything with arms outstretched)
Biggles and the R.A.F. (several hashers wheel right in a circle shooting at everything with hands around eyes to look like goggles)
Anti-aircraft fire (several hashers raise arms and pom-pom fire)

FATHER ABRAHAM

Melody - Itself

Leader: Father Abraham had seven sons,
Seven sons had Father Abraham,
And he never smiled,
And he never cried,
All he did was go like this - With a right!

All (shout/actions): With a right! (extend right arm)

Leader: Father Abraham had seven sons,

FATHER DAMIEN
Back to the top of the Page

Melody - as for "Father Abraham"
Composed by Flying Booger in honor of Father Damien, who cared for the lepers of Molokai

Father Damien, had seven toes,
Seven toes had Father Damien,
And he decomposed,
In bits and chunks,
And he always went like this - With a right!

All (shout/actions): And a right! (kick out right leg)

Oops!
Father Damien, had six toes,etc . . .

GAMES
Back to the top of the Page

(What to do when you want to get a bunch of hashers totally shitfaced)

Tap Tap Game: Everybody sits around a table with both hands on the table. Each person places his or her hands between the hands of the people sitting next to him, so that each person at the table has two strange hands in front of him. One person taps a hand, and tapping goes around the circle to the right, hand by hand. It may be your hand's turn or someone else's hand's turn. It may seem like it ought to be your hand's turn, but it's hard to keep it straight. Anyway, tapping continues right around the circle until two people tap at once, at which point tapping reverses and goes to the left. The person who blew it chugs a beer, or maybe everyone in the circle chugs. One can see where this game is headed . . .

"What Is It" Game: Take any two different everyday objects and sit in a circle with at least seven or eight people. One person holds both objects (you, for example). You give one to the person on your right. You say, "This is a vibrator" (you can call the object whatever you want to call it - representational truth does not matter for the purposes of this game). The person on your right then asks "What is it?" You repeat, "This is a vibrator." The person to your right hands the object to the person on his or her right, and says, "This is a vibrator" (don't change the name). The person on his or her right asks, "What is it?" The person on your right turns back to you and asks, "What is it?" You say, "This is a vibrator." The person on your right tells the person on his or her right, "This is a vibrator." And the vibrator moves to the right around the circle in this manner, with the question "What is it?" always being relayed back to you, and your answer, "This is a vibrator" always being relayed forward to the next person to get it. Now, at the same time you started the "vibrator" around to the right, you handed the other object to the person on your left, saying "This is a dildo" (or whatever). This object moves around to the left while the other object moves around to the right, and it gets pretty hard to keep things straight when both objects pass on the far side of the circle.

The "Pink Thing" Game. Some hashes award a Pink Thing to hashers when they reach a specified number of runs, usually 25. The Haberdasher is responsible for having Pink Things made up (scarves, ribbons, hash bibs, whatever - as long as they're pink). At the awarding ceremony, the Pink Thing is hidden somewhere in the clothing of a hasher of the opposite sex. The awardee then has to find and retrieve the pink thing - without using his or her hands.

HANKY PANKY
Back to the top of the Page

Melody - Hokey Pokey
Written by Julie (Cucumber ) Hart, Phuket H3

You give the right eye wink
You give the left eye wink
You give the "come here" wink
And he buys us both a drink

CHORUS:
You do the hanky panky
Get his trousers down
That's what it's all about

You do the top lip lick
You do the bottom lip lick
You give a little giggle
'Cause he thinks you'll lick his prick

You put your right tit out
You put your left tit out
Nipples getting harder
So you shake them all about

You put your right cheek out
You put your left cheek out
You give a little wobble
Watch his eyes pop out

You put your right leg out
You put your left leg out
Spread them at the knees
So he can see what it's about

You put the right hip out
You put the left hip out
Grab him by the ballocks
And you squeeze until he spouts

You put your pelvis in
You put your pelvis out
Go a little faster
And you grind it all about

You give the right ear groan
You give the left ear groan
Grind a little faster
'Cause he's going to drop his load

You give a right cheek kiss
You give a left cheek kiss
Hate to be a liar
But you tell him it was bliss

We've done the hanky panky
Got his trousers down
So fuck off!

Written by Neptunus, The Hague HHH

Oh-eh-oh-eh-oh-eh-oh-eh
Oh-eh-oh-eh-oh-eh-oh-eh
Oh-eh-oh-eh-oh-eh
If I had a hard-on,
A hard-on in the morning,
A hard-on in the evening,
An all-night stand.

I'd screw without danger,
I'd screw without a warning,
I'd screw you, and you,
Your mother and your sister,
Ah-ah, all night long.

But I don't have a hard-on,
No hard-on in the morning,
No hard-on in the evening,
No hard-on at all.

So there is no danger,
You don't need a warning,
I won't screw you, and you,
Your mother nor your sister
Oh-no, I want to die.

(Action: wipe tears from face)
Oh-eh-oh-eh-oh-eh-oh-eh
Oh-eh-oh-eh-oh-eh-oh-eh
Oh-eh-oh-eh-oh-eh

I bought myself a dildo,
A dildo for the morning,
A dildo for the evening,
To screw around all night.

I screw without danger,
Now I screw without a warning,
But I won't screw you, or you,
Your mother nor your sister,
Oh-no, I sodomize myself.

(Action: hold ass as if in pain)
Oh-eh-oh-eh-oh-eh-oh-eh
Oh-eh-oh-eh-oh-eh-oh-eh

LION-HUNT SONG
Back to the top of the Page


Everyone gathers in a circle and faces right, so that they look at the back of the hasher in front of them. Then everyone pulls his or her pants up tight to form a wedgie. If hats are available they should be worn backwards. Everyone places his or her tongue between the lower lip and teeth. Then everyone stamps on the ground in a 1-2-3-4 cadence and begins marching around in the circle. The songmeister shouts out each line, which is immediately shouted back by everyone else in the circle.

CHORUS:
We're going on a lion-hunt!
(march around stamping)
We're not afraid!
(continue stamping)
We've got guns!
(pantomime holding rifles)
And bullets two!
(hold up two fingers)

Came upon a mountain!
(peak hands to form mountain)
Couldn't go 'round it!
(move one hand around the "mountain")
Couldn't go across it!
(move one hand over the "mountain")
Had to go through it!
(digging motions with both hands)

OTHER VERSES (done in same manner as "mountain" verse):
Came upon an ocean!
Couldn't go 'round it!
Couldn't go across it!
Had to swim through it!

Had to cut through it!

Melody - Lion Hunt
By Stallion, Copenhagen HHH
Note: You'll have to think of your own gestures!

We're going down on a woman's cunt
We're not scared
Cause we got tongues
And condoms too

Came across a pussy
A fucking wet pussy
Couldn't go over it
Couldn't go around it
Had to lick through it

(repeat the first part)

Came across a virgin
A fucking young virgin
First I fucked through it
Blood came out of it
Had to tam pack it

(repeat the first part)

Came across two holes
Fucking big holes
Lots of hairs around them
Couldn't decide which one
Shit I chose the wrong one

Melody - Fish Cheer and I-Feel-Like-I'm-Fixing-To-Die Rag, by Country Joe and the Fish
By Fuk Stik (dedicated to the mistresses of the California Larrikins HHH)

Head Slave: Gimme a S! Response: S!
Gimme a L! L!
Gimme a A! A!
Gimme a V! V!
Gimme a E! E!

What's that spell? SLAVE!
What's that spell? SLAVE!
What's that spell? SLAVE!

Come on all you, big strong men,
The Hash Mistress is here again.
We've all gathered in Hillcrest
Just in case she shows some breast.
So get on your knees and avert your eyes,
We're gonna hear her cat-o-nine fly

Chorus:
And it's one, two, three
What are we kneeling for?
Don't ask me I don't give a damn
Next stop is the promised land!
And it's five, six, seven,
Hope it's not to late,
There ain't no time to wonder why,
Whoopee! Watch the whip fly...

Well come on worms, let's move fast,
Your big chance chance has come at last.
Gotta go out and show that ass --
The only good man is one that's thrashed.
And you know when it's all done,
If you've been good, you might get to cum...

And it's one, two, three
What are we kneeling for?
Don't ask me I don't give a damn
Next stop is the promised land!
And it's five, six, seven,
Hope it's not to late,
There ain't no time to wonder why,
Whoopee! Watch the whip fly...

Mistress, Mistress, tell me please
What I do now that I'm on my knees...
Whip me, beat me, make me yours
All I want is to be on all fours.
Tease me, taunt me, just give me a chance
To see what's in those PVC pants...

And it's one, two, three
What are we kneeling for?
Don't ask me I don't give a damn
Next stop is the promised land!
And it's five, six, seven,
Hope it's not to late,
There ain't no time to wonder why,
Whoopee! Watch the whip fly...

When it's all over and I am beat,
I'm still wondering about my meat.
She's taken my spirit, she's taken my pride,
And all I got left is a sore behind.
I guess it's not my place to think,
Just to lick her boots and eat her pink!

And it's one, two, three
What are we kneeling for?
Don't ask me I don't give a damn
Next stop is the promised land!
And it's five, six, seven,
Hope it's not to late,
There ain't no time to wonder why,
Whoopee! Watch the whip fly...
