Hello Muddah,  hello Fadduh, Here  I am  at Camp  Grenada.
 Camp is very  entertaining,
 and they say  we'll have some fun  if it stops raining.
I  went hiking with  Joe Spivy...he  developed poison ivy.
 You remember  Leonard Skinner?
He  got ptomaine poisoning  last night after dinner.
All  the counselors  hate the waiters,
And  the lake  has alligators.
 And the head  coach wants no sissies,
So  he reads  to us  from something called Ulysses.
Now  I don't  want, this  should scare  ya,
But  my bunkmate has  malaria.
 You remember  Jeffrey Hardy?
They're  about  to organize a  searching party.
Take  me home,  oh muddah fadduh, take  me home,
 I hate Grenada.
Don't leave me  out in the forest,
where  I might  get eaten  by a bear.
Take  me home,  I promise I will not  make noise
 or mess the house with
oth..er boys,  oh please  don't make me stay,
 I've been  here one, whole, day.
 Dearest fadduh, darling muddah,
 How's my precious little bruddah?
 Let me come home if ya miss me
 I will even let Aunt Bertha hug and kiss me.
 Wait a minute, it stopped hailing,
 Guys are swimming, guys are sailing,
 Playing baseball, gee that's better,
 Muddah Fadduh please disregard this letter.
 A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
