Duck Duck/Shods Songbook

Songbook Page

The original Duck Duck Songbook was a project that Scott assembled while hanging around the Art department at ULowell. It was done on old Macs using various versions of MacWrite. I've got the original Mac files, but unfortunately don't have most of the fonts that where used, which kinda spoils the fun. So, as the next best option, I've provided a scanned version of the original songbook as given to me by Scott in the early nineties (well, with 2 minor edits: Chinese Restaurants and Pelvic Thrust have been removed to protect the living). This will provide for a good sampling of the original work.

The rest of the lyrics I have I'll put up here in plain text. For those that are interested in this sort of thing, I got these of the original diskette using the Basilisk II Mac emulator to copy the files to my PC hard drive. Then I used Word to open them (Word could read the files fine, but again it suffered from a huge amount of font substitution) and save them as plain text files. You'll notice that there are more songs than what are included in the PDF file as it was a work in progress and Scott kept adding in more tunes as he went along.
