The Original Streakers

Continuing on about the daring capers, that my friend Roger and I conjured up;

Is the one about the USA’s first “streakers”, wearing only jockey cups!

The year was nineteen sixty one, the month was January, cold;

With two feet of fresh snow upon the ground, this plan was very bold!

On a Saturday night, or Sunday morning, at the stroke of one a.m.;

We hatched a plan to strip down to our undies, and thought it just a gem!

We decided that one by one we’d jump out, of my bedroom window now ajar;

Clad only in our underwear, a round trip to the stop sign down so far!

We knew that if a car drove by, and saw us we were dead;

But however hard we tried to fight it, this idea was in our heads!

I, being the major instigator, was the first one to take flight;

I raced barefoot and touched the stop sign, then made it back all right!

I climbed back in the window, and out then Roger flew;

I was watching as he raced down, but some headlights come in view!

So he sped so very quickly, that they never saw him run;

We did it several more nights, our careers as streakers had begun!
