You don't remember the Yellow Bird cadence? A yellow bird with a yellow bill Sat upon my window sill I lured him in with a piece of bread And then I smashed hiiiiiis fucking head!!!
Never heard that one, but I was Air Force. In tech school at Keesler, the filthiest, raunchiest ones were more often than not the creation of one of the women. Like blacks and crime, military women and X-rated imaginations seem joined at the hips.
2nd verse: The prettiest leg, I ever saw, Was on a puppy, with a broken paw. I lured him in, with a piece of meat, aannnnd then I smashed his, other feet!
That color has a lot of names. Institutional green. Chrome green. Spinach green. Grey-green. Puke green. But I like yours best.
Back in my teens I was a member of several organizations that met in old government buildings. Our rent was usually cleaning up the areas we use. I have spent many an hour cleaning green walls.
#7. I doubt they call cadence anymore, Kenny, based on that clusterfuck we got to watch on the 14th. Sometimes I wish I was found in Panama dead, at least for a day or two. Eod1sg Ret

Delete“Pretty little bird, with a pretty little bill.
DeleteLanded on my window sill,
Coached him in with a piece of bread.
Then I smashed his fuck’in head!”
Marching? Cadence? WTF? I was in the Navy.('65-"69)!
DeleteUSN 81-85 we marched are asses off in the middle of the winter in Great Lakes Ill. A lot of cadence songs but not that one.

That cadence wasn't around in the early days of the Black Boot US Army (early days of the switch from brown boots to black).

Anon 5:20 - I could've done without it to be honest with you. It was a dumb fucking cadence and ceased to be funny after the first time you heard it.
DeleteSang it in boot camp in the summer of '72 at Fort Knox. With slight variations.

#1 - Now I have the song "If I only had a brain" bouncing around in my head like some kind of ear worm from 1939 so thanks for that.
