Martians

When I was first in college, some friends and I formed The Men’s Club, in which we got together and drank beer and smoked cigars. Sadly, that was pretty much the extent of our activities; the club had formed because one of my male friends had decided that our female friends were too dominant over us, however we could think of nothing else that would distinguish us from them. It was a short-lived experiment. That was the year a lot of things were starting to hit home for me orientationwise, but I was pretty sure I still liked women more than beer or cigars.

Anyway, here are the words to our secret theme song, which we all promised never to reveal:

Men men men men
Men men men men
Men are better than wo-men
Men men men men
Men are better than wo-men

I don’t know how convincingly we were able to bellow this considering the particular men involved, but there you are.

I recall some comedy routine that had a song in it that contained a "men, men, men, men" refrain. I heard it on the radio, probably the Dr. Demento show, when I was a teen. All I remember was one phrase that went something like "there's Bob and Mike and Steve and Joe and one that we call Sally. Men, men, men, men." I think it took place on a Viking boat with all these guys rowing in unison with the drum beating the rhythm and it devolved into the song.

I don't know why I'm telling you this.
