What is Burlington Bertie?
1.
The song of University College London.
Who came up with UCL version? Totally unknown, although it originated from a version of the song popular in music halls according to sources on Wikipedia.
Every year almost all the freshers learn the song, and every year it graces the streets of London. It is passed on mainly by lawyers and the political and sporting societies.
It's rarely, if ever, sung when sober. It is directly offensive towards students from the Strand Polytechnic - Kings College London.
I'm Burlington Bertie,
I'm short, fat and dirty,
My college portrays my high class - high class.
I walk down the Strand,
With my cock in my hand,
And wave it at King's as I pass.
Oh Bert, Bert,
I come in my shirt,
At least I go to UC - UC.
There's one thing I'm sure of,
Strand Poly are wankers,
I'm Burlington Bert from UC. UC!!
That's me, and him, and her, and him and him
