(I even found that the verses at least can be sung to the tune of the Irish drinking song from Whose Line is it Anyway...:-D)
Engineer's drinking song
Chorus:
We are, we are, we are, we are the Engineers
We can, we can, we can, we can demolish forty beers.
Drink rum, drink rum, drink rum, drink rum and come along with us,
For we don't give a damn for any damn man/woman who don't give a damn for us.
Women’s version:
We are, we are, we are, we are the women engineers
We can, we can, we can, we can drink twice as many beers
Drink rum, drink rum, drink rum, drink rum and come along with us
For we don’t give a damn for any damn man who can’t get it up for us!
Verses:
Godiva was a lady who through Coventry did ride
To show to all the villagers her lovely bare white hide;
The most observant villager, an Engineer of course,
Was the only one to notice that Godiva rode a horse.
I've come a long, long way she said, and I will go as far,
With the man who takes me from this horse and leads me to the bar.
The men who took her from her steed and stood her to a beer,
Were a bleary-eyed Surveyor and a drunken Engineer.
A maiden and an Engineer were sitting in a park
The Engineer was busy doing research after dark,
His scientific method was a marvel to observe,
While his right hand write the figures, his left hand traced the curves.
My father was a miner in the northern Malamute,
My mother was a mistress of a house of ill repute,
The last time I saw the both, these words rang in my ears-
Get out of here you s.o.b. and join the Engineers.
The army and the navy boy swent out to have some fun
Down to the local tavern where the fiery liquors run;
But all they found were empties for the Engineers had come
And traded all their instruments for gallon kegs of rum.
Caesar set out for Egypt at the age of fifty-three
He hung about with Cleopatra whose heart was young and free
And every time that Caesar said "goodnight" at three o'clock
There was a roman Engineer waiting just around the block
On reading Kama Sutra, a man learned position nine
For proving masculinity it surely was divine
But then one night the girl rebelled and kicked him on his rear
For he was a feeble artsie and she was an Engineer
Sir Francis Drake and all his ships set out for Calais Bay,
They heard the Spanish rum fleet was heading out that way.
But the Engineers had beat them by a night and half a day
And although as drunk as hooligans, you still could hear them say...
An artsie and an Engineer found a gallon can.
Said the artise, "Match me drink for drink and see if you're a man."
They took three drinks, the artsie fell, his face was turning green;
But the Engineer drank on and said, "It's only gasoline."
Venus is a statue made entirely of stone,
She didn't wear a fig leaf, she was naked as a bone.
On noticing her arms were gone, an Engineer discoursed,
"The darned thing's busted concrete and should've been reinforced!"
My uncle is a lunatic who lives on the dole
My sister was a prostitute but now she's on parole
My brother owns a restaurant with bedrooms in the rear
But none of them will talk to me 'cause I'm an Engineer
Most people think Mulroney was a great big SOB,
He’s remembered as the man who gave us GST.
If he hadn’t quit, he would have been thrown out on his ear,
But I would have called him king if he were an Engineer.
Elvis was the undisputed king of rock and roll,
But years of song and women surely took their toll.
Then one night the time was right, he knew the end was near,
He faked his death to join with us, and become an Engineer.
(alternate)
Elvis as we all know is the king of rock and roll,
But all those years of drug abuse, they finally took their toll.
He loved to eat his pork rinds and he loved to drink his beer,
So he faked his death and joined us all, now he’s an Engineer.
So now you've heard out story and you know we're Engineers.
We love to love our men/women and we love to drink our beers.
So come and have a sip with us, we'll drink to anyone from far and near
'Coz we're a helluva helluva helluva helluva helluva engineer!!!
