The "fight song" of The Evergreen State College.
So named because our mascot is the revolting mollusk, the geoduck.

The school's motto?
Omnia Extares
Let it all hang out.

(words and music by Malcolm Stilson, 1971)

Go, Geoducks go,
Through the mud and the sand,
let's go.
Siphon high, squirt it out,
swivel all about,
let it all hang out.

Go, Geoducks go,
Stretch your necks when the tide
is low
Siphon high, squirt it out,
swivel all about,
let it all hang out.

My wife went to Evergreen.
