Lyrics
Well I decided to improve my social station
I joined a fraternal organization
I tucked in my shirt and signed on the line
Right away they set about to improve my mind
My breath
They said "Kid, we don't much like the way you walk
And you're gonna have to change the way you talk"
They said "Your dress is kinda slouchy
And your attitude's a little grouchy"
They said "You got to learn to bubble
You got to bubble with enthusiasm"
I started bubbling
Now the most important thing you can't forget
Is learning the entire Greek alphabet
I never did really understand
How that's gonna make me any more a man
But I learned it
I can whip through that son of a beta backwards in five seconds
Well then they hit me with some pretty bad news
Concerning the payment of monthly dues
I never did know where the money went
I never was sure it was real well spent
But I paid it
I ain't no trouble causer
And 'sides I figured that's life
If you want good friends, they're gonna cost you
Well it finally got to be party time
I got me a great big old jug of wine
I went back to the house in about an hour
And everybody's drinking whiskey sours
Brandy Alexanders and frozen daiquiris
Reciting the Greek alphabet to one another
I could see I was gonna have to do my very best
To get myself out of that fraternity mess
I stood right there outside the door
And I chugged that wine like never before
I walked inside and bubbled
All over a couple of their dates
So now everything's back to normal again
Course there's still lots of room for improvement
Friend, that fraternity stuff's too much for me
Next time I'm gonna join a sorority
Give 'em something to bubble about
