As I roved out on the streets of Northwestern
I spied a young freshman dejected and blue, I said
"Young man--why are you dejected?"
He said, "I'm Chinese and I can't join Psi U!"
"I see by your frat pin that you are a Psi U
If I had a frat pin I'd be one too
But I can't have a frat pin and I can't be a Psi U
I can't be a Psi U because my name's Sherman Wu."
The dean said, "Now Sherman, don't raise a commotion
It's wrong to wash laundry in public you know
If he was just Jewish, Italian or German
But he's so damn Chinese the whole campus would know."
