Be Prepared - Tom Lehrer
Be prepared
That's the boy scout's marching song
Be prepared
As through life you march along
Be prepared
To hold your liquor pretty well
Don't write naughty words on walls
If you can't spell
Be prepared
To hide that pack of cigarettes
Don't make book
If you cannot cover bets
Keep those reefers hidden
Where you're sure
That they will not be found
And be careful not to smoke them
When the scoutmaster's around
For he only will insist that it be shared
Be prepared
Be prepared
That's the boy scouts' solemn creed
Be prepared
And be clean in word and deed
Don't solicit for your sister
That's not nice
Unless you get a good percentage of her price
Be prepared And be careful not to do
Your good deeds
When there's no one watching you
If you're looking for adventure of a
New and different kind
And you come across a girl scout who is
Similarly inclined
Don't be nervous
Don't be flustered don't be scared
Be prepared
