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.

Tune of “Sugar We’re Going Down” by Fall Out Boy

Sparta’s here and we’re ready to fight (1)

We’ve been cheering with all of our might (1).

Swim meet and track

Blue you better watch your back (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).


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).

We’ll be #1 when we’re finished (1).

Gold will conquer all and we’re ready to win this (1, 2, 3).

(1, 2, 3) GO GOLD!

Tune of “All About Us” by He Is We

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.
