(Verse 1)
Fifty-five years, where did they go?
Back to the days of a Persian blue bow
The halls of DGS, the very best
We were put to Dr. Symons' test
"Daily Giving Service," our motto's call
But we were young and wanted it all
We hit the books, but we had more fun
Under the Hong Kong sun
(Verse 2)
Remember the strategies we'd deploy?
During our EPA, oh what a joy!
We'd sneak out a deck, without any fuss
For a competitive game of Bridge between us!
And we'd stare at the observatory, willing the sign
For that Signal Number 5 to wave on the line!
We'd laugh so hard, we'd snort and we'd cry
With a hopeful and desperate sigh
And that one time, under cover of night
We gave the whole faculty a fright
We moved Miss Mansfield's car when the clock struck dawn
And left it parked perfectly upon the lawn!
(Chorus)
Oh, Persian Blue, forever true
To the brilliant, naughty, amazing crew
Through all the years, the joy and the strife
We've shared the whole story of life
From schoolgirls to women, we've seen it all through
My lifelong sisters in Persian blue
(Verse 3)
We scattered like seeds to the corners of earth
Living our worth, proving our worth
Doctors and lawyers, leaders and moms
Still hearing those school bells and songs
But no title or prize could ever compare
To the bond that we secretly share
It's a thread that connects us, no matter how far
You're still my brightest star
(Chorus)
Oh, Persian Blue, forever true
To the brilliant, naughty, amazing crew
Through all the years, the joy and the strife
We've shared the whole story of life
From schoolgirls to women, we've seen it all through
My lifelong sisters in Persian blue
(Bridge)
The world may see our polished grace
But we know the smirk behind the face
We know the stories, we know the past
A sisterhood that's built to last
Fifty-five years on, here's what I know
You're the best friends I'll ever know
(Outro)
So raise a glass to the blue and the white
To the days that burned ever so bright
To the hopes for a storm, to the service we give
To the hands we played, the lives we live
Cheers to us, the proud and the few...
My forever friends in Persian blue
