We knew it would be a massive brainstorm
Despite the hard beds we got up at dawn
To do the Dish in the early morn
Then off we went to History "02"
To learn from the mavericks what we could do
To propagate our mission
Improve our condition
And once and for all publicize our vision
Now concentrate with all your might
And try to put down your fork with each bite
We've made new friends
Had lots of fun
And now our time is almost done
We'll go away with more gray matter
And sad to say we've got a bit fatter
But have no fear, we're on our way
Library world-it's a brand new day!
