This came to me late last night and I couldn't sleep until I wrote it down! Enjoy.
Joy to the School, Jo's latest babes
Are quadruplets at last!
Now everyone is happy, pleased and ecstatic;
She's no time for the school. (x3)
Joy to the School, Mary Lou has left
On an Amazonian trip.
So we will all be left in peace
To solve our own problems. (x3)
Joy to the School, Miss Annersly
Makes naughty Middles quake.
But when they cry and say they're sorry,
All is soon forgiven. (x3)
Joy to the School, the Christmas play
Is written in blank verse,
So everyone could learn their lines
In record time, of course. (x3)
Joy to the School, Matey's on the prowl.
What will she find today?
Untidy drawers, mending needed,
Bill's secret stash of booze? (x3)
Joy to the School, the Staff' meeting
Decided no more prep.
Instead t hey will run endless rounds
Of progressive paper games. (x3)
Joy to the School, the half-term trips
Were all incident free.
None fell in the lake, or painted like Indians
The staff were much relieved. (x3)
Joy to the school, this silly song
Must now come to an end.
But we all know that the Chalet School
Goes on forevermore. (x3)
