Aw man!!! I just did a phonepost and it looks like LJ ate it!!! Bastages. I was so psyched, too.
OK, there's only one person on my entire friendslist that would have been remotely interested, but I wanted this preserved for posterity nonetheless.
What was it?
On the way home from roller derby practice, alone in the car, I remembered all the words to all three verses of my high school's alma mater (why am I thinking of this? because my tenth high school reunion is coming up. An entire decade, and I still know all the damn words!!! All the damn words), and sang them to LJ's phonepost bitch, and posted it public, and as the phonepost voicemail bitch is my witness, I knew all the lyrics, to all three goddamn verses. They're really fucking long verses too.
And just to prove how awesome I am, I even Googled, and discovered that these lyrics are not on the Internet. There is no way, save by being an Emma girl or associate, that you could possibly find out what the lyrics are to all three verses (or, for that matter, even one verse) of Emma Willard's Alma Mater. (Unless you go there on a Monday morning and listen, because, you know, they'll sing it then.)
That lost voicepost, missing in the deeps of LJ's voicemail somewhere, is the only place on the Internet you could have found those lyrics.
But it is gone now. It has been eaten.
Livejournal probably auto-transcribed it and was like, "That is so totally worse than kiddie porn," and deleted it for my own good.

I was confused from the start, and then sort of refused to learn it out of spite, and then just as I was getting it, y'all came around and taught me the naughty version, and then I memorized that one instead (being that it rather appealed to my sensibilities). So now all I remember is...something about fences.

I think the voicepost just showed up but I'm at work so I can't listen and see if that's what it is, but it seems to have posted itself at around 7:45 this morning...
