The Poem
This is gold.
This is Sparta.
We are bold
you can’t stop us.
We’ll fight the longest
you can’t reach our height.
We are the strongest
we’ll fight day and night.
We won’t coward down when our shields stand tall
together in battle.
Against the blue team
we fight harder than cattle.
For blue, winning is just a dream.
Spartans start training from birth
Learning about bravery, weapons, and armor.
In Sparta everyone has the same worth.
We will never lose and we’ll win with honor.
We are gold.
We are Sparta.
This is our time.
Atlas Blue can’t stop us.

Pre-Chorus
Boys: Spirit and strength (1)
Girls: From the start (1)
All: We’ll never fade, our voices will remain (2, 3, 4).
Chorus
Blue’s going down, down we all already know it.
We’re standing strong ready to defeat you (1).
We’ll be #1 when we’re finished (1).
Gold will conquer all and we’re ready to win this (1, 2, 3).
Verse 2
Apache, marble call
We’ll be winning it all (1).
Don’t worry about us.
Gold team (1) cannot be stopped
Our teamwork’s putting us on top (2, 3, 4).
Pre-Chorus
Boys: Spirit and strength (1)
Girls: From the start (1)
All: We’ll never fade, our voices will remain (2, 3, 4).
Chorus
Blue’s going down, down we all already know it.
We’re standing strong ready to defeat you (1).
We’ll be #1 when we’re finished (1).
Gold will conquer all and we’re ready to win this (1, 2, 3).
Chorus
Blue’s going down, down we all already know it.
We’re standing strong ready to defeat you (1).

1234 123
United as one (1, 2)
Together tonight. (1, 2)
Hands intertwined (1, 2)
It’ll be alright. (1, 2)
Wipe our tears (1, 2)
The end is near. (1, 2)
Summer fades (1, 2)
But our hearts remain here. (1, 2, 3)
Iroquois Springs, something special here (1)
That brings us back every year.
Tears of blue, hearts of gold
Forever with you. (1)
Time after time we come home to you
Each day is a gift with the gold and blue.
In our hearts whether near or far. (1)
And every heart in the room will know
This is our home we won’t let it go
So hold me close (1) and remember (1, 2, 3) tonight.
Suddenly, seasons change (1, 2)
I long to be next to you (1)
Reliving (1) those days. (1)
Feeling silence when alone (1, 2)
But distance won’t (1) leave us on our own. (1, 2, 3)
Iroquois Springs, something special here (1)
That brings us back every year.
Tears of blue, hearts of gold
Forever with you. (1)
Time after time we come home to you
Each day is a gift with the gold and blue.
In our hearts whether near or far. (1)
And every heart in the room will know
This is our home we won’t let it go
So hold me close (1) and remember (1, 2, 3) tonight.
Girls: How can I be me without you?
Boys: How can I be gold without blue?
All: Can you pull me through? (1, 2) You always pull me through. (1, 2)
Time after time we come home to you
Each day is a gift with the gold and blue.
In our hearts whether near or far. (1)
And every heart in the room with know
This is our home we won’t let it go
So hold me close (1) and cherish (1, 2, 3) tonight.
