POUPON U Songs

POUPON U Fight Song

Wisconsin Version

(Click to hear Barry Sing)

On our hot dogs, on our bratwurst,

Mustard is so cool.

Never mayo, never ketchup

They're against the rules.

Gleaming gold and mellow yellow,

Smooth, rough, sweet and hot,

Fight, POUPON U, we'll fight

and eat some lunch.

POUPON U Fight Song

South Bend Version

(Click to hear Barry Sing)

Eat, eat, at old POUPON U,

Bratwursts and hot dogs,

hamburgers, too,

All with mustard spread on thick,

We never eat ketchup

'Cause it makes us sick!

We slather it on our bagels and fries,

Licorice and corn flakes,

blueberry pies,

Even with our Irish stew,

'Cause we're true to POUPON U!

Roll Out the Mustard!

(These are the REAL words!)

(Click to hear Barry Sing)

Roll out the mustard

On pretzels and tofu and cheese,

On a baked potato,

On muffins and green beans and peas.

Try it in risotto,

On roast beef and burgers and chops,

Let it be the star of your sandwich,

So use mustard wherever it plops!
