the varsity students’ rag - sir john betjeman lyrics

i’m afraid the fellows in putney rather wish they had
the social ease and manners of a varsity undergrad
for tho’ they’re awf’lly decent and up to a lark as a rule
you want to have the varsity touch after a public school

we had a rag at monico’s. we had a rag at the troc.,
and the one we had at the berkeley gave the customers quite a shock
then we went to the popular, and after that, oh my!
i wish you’d seen the rag we had in the grill room at the cri

i started a rag in putnеy at our frothblower’s branch down there;
wе got in a d*mn’d old lorry and drove to trafalgar square;
and we each had a couple of toy balloons and made the h*ll of a din
and i saw a bobby at parson’s green who looked like running us in
we had a rag at monico’s. we had a rag at the troc.,
and the one we had at the berkeley gave the customers quite a shock
then we went to the popular, and after that, oh my!
i wish you’d seen the rag we had in the grill room at the cri

but that’s nothing to the rag we had at the college the other night;
we’d gallons and gallons of cider and i got frightfully tight
and then we smash’d up ev’rything, and what was the funniest part
we smashed some rotten old pictures which were priceless works art

there’s something about a varsity man that distinguishes him from a
cad;
you can tell by his tie and blazer he’s a varsity undergrad
and you know that he’s always ready and up to a bit of a lark
with a toy balloon and a whistle and some cider after dark
