The only way that ordinary mutts can mix with me

Is take me out and haze me till I lose my dignity.

CHORUS:

I’m a son of a son of a son of a son of a son of an aeronaut,

And I have sworn to lie no more about the fights I’ve fought,

And I’m so jolly thankful to the Seniors who have taught,

I’m the son of a son of a son of a son of a son of an airy-naught!

Oh, I’m so jolly thankful that these ordinary mutts

Have spanked me good and plenty with my tetrahedral struts,

And I have promised not to let my head get big again,
