i was thinking what's a song from a Boston band that could be Pats theme for the year. "Boston" is too light, Aerosmith is too corporate. Then I hit on the group Godsmack. They're a balls-out heavy metal band that's perfect for our "Evil Empire" image. In particular, I think their song "Awake" is perfect.
Here's the lyrics w/ my comments in parenthesis:
----------
Yeah
Wait another minute
Can't you see what this pain
(Spygate allegations)
Has f#@*ing done to me
I'm alive and still kicking
What you see I can't see
And maybe
You'll think before you speak
(trash talkers from other teams like Pittsburgh)
I'm alive for you
(you = all the haters)
I'm awake because of you
I'm alive I told you
I'm awake swallowing you
(Every team in the league we face)
Take another second
Turn your back on me
And make believe
That you're always happy
It's safe to say, you're never alive
A big part of you has died
(Every team we've embarressed)
And by the way
I hope you're satisfied
I'm alive for you
I'm awake because of you
I'm alive I told you
I'm awake swallowing you
I'm alive for you
I'm awake because of you
I'm alive I told you
I'm awake
Turn your back, unveiling me
I'm taking a step back so I can breathe
Hear the silence about to break
(kick off)
Fear resistance when I'm awake
Turn your back, unveiling me
I'm taking a step back so I can breathe
Hear the silence about to break
Fear resistance when I'm awake
I'm alive for you
I'm awake because of you
I'm alive I told you
I'm awake swallowing you
I'm alive for you
I'm awake because of you
I'm alive I told you
I'm awake swallowing you
