Notes: This is a drinking song, which was generated in the tradtional way, amidst men of war, far from home, drinking as much any liquor they could find, late into the night (read: soldiers camped out in a staging area the day before they were to return home from Somalia). This particular song was created after Marty received his 75th compliment from the first Sargeant in a single day. There are any infinite number of verses to this song, similar to XX Bottles of Beer on the Wall or This is the Song that Never Ends!

(Initial Verse):

Marty, Marty!

Marty, Marty, Marty!

Marty! Marty!

What a great guy!


(Chorus)

Second verse, just like the first,

A little bit louder, a little bit worse!


(2nd Verse)

Simon, Simon!

Simon, Simon, Simon!

Simon, Simon!

Not as good as Marty!


Marty, Marty!

Marty, Marty, Marty!

Marty! Marty!

What a great guy!


(Chorus)

Third verse, just like the first,

A little bit louder, a little bit worse!


(3rd Verse)

Thane, Thane!

Thane, Thane, Thane!

Thane, Thane!

Not as good as Marty!


Marty, Marty!

Marty, Marty, Marty!

Marty! Marty!

What a great guy!


(Chorus)

Fourth verse, just like the first,

A little bit louders, a little bit worse!

...and so on
