Tradition: At the closing of the circle the RA will state: “Hats off, pots on the ground! Time for some Hash Religion!” This signals that the circle has come to a close and that the International Hash Hymn will be sung.
INTERNATIONAL HASH HYMN
Melody – Swing Low, Sweet Chariot
Swing low, sweet chariot,
Coming forth to carry me home,
Swing low, sweet chariot,
Coming forth to carry me home.
I looked over Jordan, and what did I see,
Coming forth the carry me home,
A band of angels coming after me,
Coming for to carry me home.
If you get there before I do,
Coming forth to carry me home,
Tell all my friends that I’m coming too,
Coming forth to carry me home.
Variations: Variations of the chorus are sung after the song is completed:
- EZ on the Ass Version – everything after the first line is replaced with “Fuck this is bullshit, I’m going home!”
- Hum It!
- Men’s Version – sung in a deep voice with all the words after “coming” replaced with snoring
- Munchkin Version – sung as if you’re in the Wizard of Oz
- Scooby-Doo Version – sung in a Scooby-Doo voice
- Tongues out, double time!
- Tourettes – after the first line member break into random curses
- Women’s Version – sung in a high voice with the word “coming” repeated over and over again
