THE ORIGINAL SCHOOL SONG
?H:W f:OJ,J,EUHTE INSTITrTE
In days of yore, ere Noah built the ark,
Someone left some bricks near the old town park,
They piled them high, and hung some doors thereon, And built some wire fences just to keep us off the lawn.
CHORUS
Oh, it's glorious, simply glorious,
We're here to make the CCI victorious, We'll tell the world with shouts uproarious, We represent the good old CCI.
September comes and brings another crowd,
Of young first formers trooping down the road, They all are bound for the famous CCI,
To get an education and some pleasure on the sly.
By nine each day we are ready for our work,
The staff, they keep us at it, woe betide us if we shirk, There's Latin, English, Chemistry and Tech,
Almost before we know it we're in work up to our neck.
Last verse of all to our graduates we sing,
They're all chucked full of wisdom and they know most everything.
We wish them luck, and as the years roll by,
They'll always find a welcome at the good old CCI.
Special chorus after verse four:
They're glorious, simply glorious,
Their conduct at the school was meritorious, We hope through life they'll be victorious, They represent the good old CCI.
