Recite ALL the lyrics to the cheer "schnoogling"
Schnoogling is the process
By which we do preform,
the tender art of necking
in order to keep warm.
They're schoogling in the parlors
they're schoogling in the dark
and aza's are teaching
schnoogling in the dark!
Now gather round my girlies
and listen to my plea
Don't ever trust an aza
an inch above the knee (TOE)!!!
I know a girl who tried it
and dearly did she pay
the sun of a gun left her
with the son of an AZA
That little AZA boy
He did grow up one day
And met a BBG girl
in much the same old way
This little bbg girl
she did not hear my plea
and now they have between them
a bouncing bbg
the moral of the story
is very plain to see
dont trust an AZA
an inch above the knee (TOE)!!
Why not? It's fun!
No its not!
Well sometimes....
