<P> At the height of the John Wooden era (1948--1975), "Rover" was played only after lopsided basketball victories . Now, "Rover" is played after all UCLA athletic victories immediately following the alma mater . The lyric "scattered all over the court" is changed to "scattered all over the field" when at a football or soccer match . Also, after the band sings the lyric "and in his head there's a great big dent" they jump off their seats or benches simultaneously and continue singing . </P> <P> The lyrics to the song are as follows: </P> <P> We're looking over our dead dog, Rover, That we overran tonight (all right!) One leg is broken, the other is bent, And in his head, there's a great big dent . No need explaining the parts remaining Are scattered all over the court (field) (next page). We're looking over our dead dog, Rover, That we overran tonight! </P> <P> U! (3 claps) C! (3 claps) L! (3 claps) A! (3 claps) </P>

Song i'm looking over my dead dog rover
