'''Disclaimer''': Many old verses of the song are no longer used due to offensive language, antiquated ideas, and inappropriate ideals. These verses ''do not'' reflect the current beliefs and values of engineers and our community. In recent years, the engineering community has striven to become more conscious of the effect of language, particularly in cheers and yells such as Godiva's Hymn. As we have evolved as a community, we recognize that these verses should not be sung again. The original version of the hymn remains accessible ''only'' to acknowledge the faults of the origin of our engineering culture and to better understand why they should never be repeated.

	While the Hymn has many verses, it is unusual for students to sing more than the typical 2-3 standard verses commemorating Lady Godiva, or, during [[F!rosh Week]], the additional verses poking fun at other faculties. Many old verses of the song, particularly the off-colour verses, have been deprecated and are rarely remembered, much less heard, on campus.
