Hash Hymns

Songs for Down Down's
After a hash it is traditional to Circle Up at the pub, where miscreants are unmasked and, and are "punished" by being made to drink. This punishment is occasionally warranted - but often entirely frivolous. Anyone can accuse anyone else of anything - the more outlandish the charge the better!

Before drinking your down down, we'll sing a song. Below are a few - please be warned that some may contain rude words.

If you would like to add any song(s) to this list, please email Cwoardelia and he'll do his best to oblige.

 1 - Traditional Down Down Song

Here's to _____, he's true blue.
He's a hasher through and through,
He's a pisspot so they say.
Tried to get to heaven,
But he went the other way.
Drink it down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down...

2 - No No No

No No No
Bad Bad Bad
Down Down Down

3 - Why were they born so beautiful

Why were they born so beautiful,
Why were they born at all.
They're no fucking use to anyone,
They're no fucking use at all.
Drink it down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down...

4 - The Soldier Song

Asshole, asshole, a soldier I will be
To piss, to piss, two pistols on my knee
For cunt, for cunt, for country and my king
Asshole, asshole, asshole, asshole, a soldier I will be
Drink it down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down...

5 - All Beers Bright And Beautiful

All beers bright and beautiful
All down-downs great and small
All ales pale with hops a-full
You're going to drink them all
Each little bottle opened
Each bitter tasty zing
You will guzzle down the lot
And we'll no longer sing
Drink it down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down...

6 - Do Re Me

Dough, the stuff that buys me beer
Ray, the guy who serves me beer
Me, the guy who drinks the beer
Far, a long long way for beer
So, I'll have another beer
La, la la la la la beer
Tea, no thanks I'm drinking beer
Which brings us back to
Drink it down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down...

7 - I like hashing (sung to the tune 
Frère Jacques)

I like hashing,
I like hashing,
Hashings fun,
Hashings fun.
Fill up all the pint pots,
Drink a load of cheap shots,
Down in one,
Down in one.
Drink it down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down...

8 - Bullshit


Bull-shit, bull-shit,
It all sounds like bullshit to me, to me!
Bull-shit, bull-shit,
It all sounds like bullshit to me!
Drink it down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down...


9 - Happy Birthday (variants)

Happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday to you,
You look like a hasher,
And you smell like one too.

Drink it down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down...

or

May you live one hundred years

May you drink one million beers
Get plastered you bastard
Happy Birthday to you.

Drink it down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down...

​or

This is your birthday song,

It isn’t very long 

Drink it down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down...

10 - Hasher Man (sung to the tune of the Piano Man)

It’s five O’clock on a Saturday
The regular crowd gathers near
There’s an old man standing next to me
White with flour and drinking a beer

He says son can you set me a shitty trail
I’m not really sure how it goes
But there’s shiggy and drink
And a beer stop, I think
And no one is wearing their clothes
​
Set us a trail you're the Hasher man
Set us a trail tonight
Cause we’re all in the mood for a beer and some food
And you’ve got us feeling all right.
​Drink it down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down...

11 - Meet The Hashers (sung to the Flintstones)


Hashers, meet the Hashers.
They’re the biggest drunks in history.
From the hash of Manchester,
They’re the leaders in debauchery.
Half minds, trailing shiggy through the years,
Watch them as they down a lot of beers,
Hashers, meet the hashers,
They're the biggest drunks is histor
Biggest drunks in histor
Biggest drunks in historeeeeeeee

​Drink it down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down...

12 - The Foreskin Song (sung to the tune of My Bonnie)


My one skin hangs down to my two skin,
My two skin hangs down to my three,
My three skin hangs down to my foreskin,
My foreskin hangs down to my knees.
Roll back, roll back,
Roll back my foreskin for me, for me.
Roll back, roll back,
Roll back my foreskin for me.
Drink it down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down...

13 - The Urinal Song


They ought to be thoroughly pissed on,
They ought to be publicly shot (Bang! Bang!),
They ought to be tied to a urinal,
And left there to fester and rot.
Drink it down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down...
