Fight Song (Informal Contest)
Some time ago people here were saying we needed an old-school fight song for the Pats (like the "Hail to the Redskins" they have down here, just not as inherently racist.)
Well, I'm no musician, so I went with someone else's tune (below). Now I want to see what everybody else can come up with. Make it serious, make it funny, I don't care. I mean, what else is there to do, since the season is now well and truly over, what with the J-E-S-T being put in their place, a week after The Game That Shall Not Be Named.
In the spirit of "screw it, eight more months to kickoff," I bring you...
On New England
(tune plundered from "On Wisconsin"
YouTube - On Wisconsin!)
On New England, On New England
Batter down the rest
Beat the Bills and Beat the Dolphins
Beat the J-E-S-T JEST
On New England, On New England
Silver, White, and Blue
Fight, fight, Patriots
Four quarters through!
(interlude like the Wisconsin version, but incorporating "Yankee Doodle")
From Rhode Island to New Hampshire
To the Old North Church
Six if by land, six if by air
Every goal-line search
On New England, On New England
Silver, White, and Blue
Let us hear those muskets fire
Four quarters through!
