La Paz, Norman´s 200th Run, 07.12.02

Dead Man´s Run
Tune: She´ll be comin´ round the Mountain

We have had a lot of hashers, but the name
Of the hasher that will always stay the same
Is our everlasting Norman
He will always be our foreman,
And will always have a down-down more to claim.

Singing ON-ON, Norman´s dead and gone
Singing ON-ON, we can still have fun
For no matter dead or living
He will never really give in
So we´re going on another Dead Man´s Run

From Australia he once came to La Paz
Thought he might as well try out the local Hash
But he was a diabetic
So when he got too athletic
Then the struggle made his sugar balance crash

Singing ON-ON, Norman´s dead and gone, singing…

When a message to his family was sent
To inform them of this tragic sad event
Came the answer short and dead-hard:
“ You can keep the rotten bastard
He did never sent us money for the rent!”

Singing ON-ON, Norman´s dead and gone, singing…

So we burnt him, and his ashes joined the lake
And we made him Honoured Member at the wake
And this poor unlucky bugger
Is still with us as our “mugger”
As we kept some ashes just for ol´ times sake.

Singing ON-ON, Norman´s dead and gone, singing…
