I know its very bad form to quote ones own reviews

But I would like to mention something

That the new york times said about me a year ago

Which I've always treasured they said: Mr ls muse

Is not fettered by such inhibiting factors as taste

Now now we come to that peculiar bit of americana known

As the football fight song

I was reminded not too long ago

Upon returning from my lesson

With the scrabble pro at the harvard club in boston

The days of my undergraduacy long ago

When there used to be these very long saturday afternoons

In the fall with nothing to do

The library was closed

Just just waiting around for the tail party to begin

And on occasions like that

Some of us used to wander over to the I believe

It was called the stadium

To see if anything might be going on over there

And one did come to realize

The football fight songs

That one hears in comparable stadia

Have a tendency to be somewhat uncouth

And even violent and that it would be refreshing

To say the least

To find one that was a ore genteel

And here it is

Dedicated to my own alma mater

And called fight fiercely harvard

Fight fiercely harvard

Fight fight fight

Demonstrate to them our skill

Albeit they possess the might

Nonetheless we have the will

How we shall celebrate our victory

We shall invite the whole team up for tea

(how jolly )

Hurl that spheroid down the field and

Fight fight fight

Fight fiercely harvard

Fight fight fight

Impress them with our prowess do

Oh fellows do not let the crimson down

Be of stout heart and thru

Come on chaps fight for harvards glorious name

Won't it be peachy if we win the game

(oh goody )

Let's try not to injure them but

Fight fight fight

(Let's not be rough though)

Fight fight fight

And do fight fiercely

Fight fight fight

Fight Fiercely Harvard - Tom Lehrer
