Bazooka Bubble Gum

Thursday, September 22nd, 2011

At the end of every summer, once you have returned home, there is always one song or tune that you simply cannot forget or erase from your mind, thanks to Camp Starlight. I am not talking about the traditional songs like, “I Can’t Smile Without You”, “Singing in the Rain”, “Sweet Caroline”, or “Friends,” but the songs you grow to love. These songs somehow become some of our favorite camp memories and have created new Camp Starlight traditions.

Two summers ago, we were introduced to a song that focused on one’s facial hair; and things got kind of hairy. This summer, thanks to Girls Bunk 11 and their divisional award winning MTV night performance, we now have the “Bazooka Bubble Gum” song imprinted in our minds (and hearts). If you wish to find an easy way to return to the summer of 2011, listen to the song and fondly think of your Camp Starlight summer home and family. Just in case you need a refresher, here are the lyrics…

My mom gave me a penny,
She said to buy a henny,
But I didn’t buy a penny,
Instead I bought bubblegum,
Bazooka-zooka,
Bubblegum,
Bazooka-zooka,
Bubblegum.

My mom gave me a nickel,
She said to buy a pickle,
But I didn’t buy a pickle,
Instead I bought bubblegum,
Bazooka-zooka,
Bubblegum,
Bazooka-zooka,
Bubblegum.

My mom gave me a dime,
She said to buy a lime,
But I didn’t buy a lime,
Instead I bought bubblegum,
Bazooka-zooka,
Bubblegum,
Bazooka-zooka,
Bubblegum.

My mom gave me a quarter,
She said to buy a porter,
But I didn’t buy a porter,
Instead I bought bubblegum,
Bazooka-zooka,
Bubblegum,
Bazooka-zooka,
Bubblegum.

My mom gave me a dollar,
She said to buy a collar,
But I didn’t buy a collar,
Instead I bought bubblegum,
Bazooka-zooka,
Bubblegum,
Bazooka-zooka,
Bubblegum.

My mom gave me a five,
She said to stay alive,
But I didn’t stay alive,
Instead I choked on,
Bubblegum,
Bazooka-zooka,
Bubblegum,
Bazooka-zooka,
Bubblegum.
