Express out of Camp Chucky you're just

in time for the nature walk

unfortunately The Midnight Express

derailed moments after departure we're

using the buddy system today Lonnie

buddy experience I'm not gonna be you

each body what we have here is a great

opportunity for you two to work on your

cooperation skills so you're tying us

together like animals that's negative

thinking I'm uniting you with a bond of

trust

[Music]

how are those cooperation skills coming

boys peachy we got a system he drags me

and I get dragged what are you talking

about I think you and all the work I've

been dragging for the last mile is it my

fault you can't keep your balance hey

person supposed to get any rest without

Lily hung me on the doorknob

Tommy buried my favorite socks oh you

missed a voice now maybe I miss hearing

their voices wrong and maybe I miss you

in their faces here and there man

photograph convey huh more cookies for

the boys yep

Caillou sending the u.s. mail well I was

thinking about it but you know you can't

the wilderness on the brink of

starvation it was the most fun I had all

summer

opportunity to explore the police

time I've given them the best summers of

mine white do you hear me good

[Applause]

the last week of camp was great I swam

I played kickball I learned how to sh**t

a bow and arrow and best of all I didn't

get a single look marina or deal in the

woods I guess go and go and learn to

respect me as a fellow human being know

what time it is

3 I guess we all have our roles in life

and I couldn't expect I'm going to stop

playing kids after all he was so good at

from the phone company
