to listen to. Great effort to put it together, but he did not even try to sing. I'll just leave a fuck msu here.
October 28th, 2016 at 2:14 AM ^
Hilarious writing, but he really needed to have one of his friends sing it for him to make it listenable. Glad he printed the lyrics, though.
October 27th, 2016 at 3:01 PM ^
Whoever "Teginator" is has significantly more free time in their life than I do. That baby took some work.
A for effort!

People in the office are staring at me.

A LONG LONG TIME AGO
I CAN STILL REMEMBER HOW
IN MID-OCTOBER THE SPARTANS WERE A JOKE
AND I KNEW THAT THE WOLVERINES WOULD WIN
KEEPING THEIR DOMINANCE IN MICHIGAN
AND, MAYBE, THE SPARTANS WOULD ALWAYS CHOKE
*****
BUT THEN LLOYD CARR WANTED TO RETIRE
AND WE FOUND RICHROD, THEN HOKE TO HIRE
THE WOLVERINES WOULD NOSEDIVE
AND SOMEHOW THE SPARTANS DID THRIVE
*****
I CAN’T REMEMBER IF I CRIED
WHEN BLAKE FUMBLED AND STATE SURVIVED
BUT SOMETHING TOUCHED ME DEEP INSIDE
THE DAY THE SPARTANS DIED
*****
SO
BYE, BYE TO YOUR POSTSEASON DRIVE
PUSHED YOUR LUCK, NOW YOU SUCK, AND YOUR TIME HAS ARRIVED
AND THEM GOOD OLE DAYS OF BEING RANKED AND ALIVE
IS NOW “NEED TO WIN MORE THAN 5”
“NEED TO WIN MORE THAN JUST 5”
*****
DID YOU THINK THE CRIMSON TIDE
STOLE ALL THE RECRUITS NATIONWIDE
AND WOULDN’T BEAT DANTONIO?
OH, DID YOU BELIEVE THAT THE SPARTY SHAM
WAS SUPPOSED TO CHALLENGE A REAL PROGRAM,
AND GET MORE POINTS THAN ZERO?
*****
WELL, I KNOW THAT MARK FELT DISRESPECT
WHILE HIS TEAM BECAME A USELESS WRECK
THEIR FANS, THEY STARTED TO BOO
EVEN LOSING TO THE STRUGGLING COUGS
*****
NO AMOUNT OF COUCHES CAN EXIST
TO SATISFY THAT BURNING ITCH
OF ALL THE SPARTY FANS WHO WERE PISSED
THE DAY THEIR SPARTANS DIED
*****
SO WE STARTED SINGIN’
BYE, BYE TO YOUR POSTSEASON DRIVE
PUSHED YOUR LUCK, NOW YOU SUCK, AND YOUR TIME HAS ARRIVED
AND THEM GOOD OLE DAYS OF BEING RANKED AND ALIVE
IS NOW “NEED TO WIN MORE THAN 5”
“NEED TO WIN MORE THAN JUST 5”
*****
NOW, FOR SOME TIME WE ALL HAVE KNOWN
SPARTY HAS SEATED THE MICHIGAN THRONE
BUT, THAT’S NOT HOW IT USED TO BE
*****
WHEN HART SAID THEY ARE JUST LITTLE BRO
HE REALLY TICKED OFF DANTONIO
AND SPARTY HAD A 8 YEAR WINNING SPREE
*****
OH, THE NATION WAS IMPRESSED, OF COURSE
SUPPOSED TO BE A BIG 10 FORCE
THEY WERE TEAM DESTINY
NOW ALMOST LAST IN THE EAST
*****
AND WHILE HARBAUGH HAS MUCH TO DO
LIKE DRINK WHOLE MILK AND BEAT OSU
WE KNOW HE CAN MAKE ONE THING TRUE
ON OCTOBER TWENTY NINTH
*****
WE WERE SINGIN’
BYE, BYE TO YOUR POSTSEASON DRIVE
PUSHED YOUR LUCK, NOW YOU SUCK, AND YOUR TIME HAS ARRIVED
AND THEM GOOD OLE DAYS OF BEING RANKED AND ALIVE
IS NOW “NEED TO WIN MORE THAN 5”
“NEED TO WIN MORE THAN JUST 5”
October 27th, 2016 at 3:15 PM ^
Hey, we found Teginator guys
October 27th, 2016 at 3:34 PM ^
Or maybe we found yet another alias of RDT. Either way impressive body of work that's for sure.
October 27th, 2016 at 3:18 PM ^
Any good voices in the Mgoblog community to redo this gem?
October 27th, 2016 at 3:39 PM ^
I've been told I have the voice of an angel. I've also been told that my voice is like a combination of Fergie and Jesus.
October 27th, 2016 at 4:12 PM ^
October 27th, 2016 at 6:01 PM ^
Hatter, I get to be Simon, which means you get all the girls, but I still end up with Edie Brickell. Which is OK. But a Don McLean song won't really work as a duet. Instead, I submit for your consideration:
THE SOUND OF SPARTY
HELLO SPARTY LITTLE FRIEND,
IT'S NICE TO DEFEAT YOU AGAIN,
BECAUSE A VISION QUICKLY CREEPING
LEFT LEWERKE SUDDENLY SLEEPING
IT WAS WORMLEY THAT WAS PLANTED IN HIS BRAIN
AND HIS REMAINS ARE ON THE FIELD OF SPARTY
AND DANTONIO WALKED ALONE
AMONG HIS PLAYERS' SHATTERED BONES
NEATH AN OCTOBER TRASH TORNADO
THE BROKEN SPARTANS WE DON'T REALLY KNOW
ARE FULL OF WOE ON THE FIELD OF SPARTY
October 27th, 2016 at 6:10 PM ^
Roll tape! This needs to be recorded... STAT!
October 27th, 2016 at 3:40 PM ^
This is great, but it's not nearly long enough (TWSS) to be American Pie:
I MET A GIRL IN MAIZE AND BLUE
AND I ASKED HER FOR SOME HAPPY NEWS
BUT SHE JUST SMILED AND PARTIED ON
I WENT TO THE MGOBLOG STORE
WHERE I'D BOUGHT A TSHIRT YEARS BEFORE
BUT THE MAN THERE SAID THE TSHIRTS WERE ALL GONE
AND IN EAST LANSING THE CHILDREN SCREAMED
THE COEDS CRIED, THE STUDENTS STEAMED
BUT NOT A WORD WAS SPOKEN
(THEIR LEAPFROGS ALL WERE BROKEN)
AND THE THREE MEN I ADMIRE MOST:
JIM HARBAUGH, HIS DAD, AND HIS BROTHER;
THEY ALL KNEW THAT TEAM WAS TOAST
THE DAY THE SPARTANS DIED
etc.
October 27th, 2016 at 3:48 PM ^
Quick quibble with that: The second line in the last stanza is supposed to rhyme with the first, so I would suggest that it be changed to:
AND THE THREE MEN I ADMIRE MOST,
HARBAUGH, BO, AND FIELDING YOST,
etc.
October 27th, 2016 at 4:26 PM ^
Oh, I totally understand the rhyme scheme.
Just, sometimes I think it's better (because jarring) to avoid the rhyme that's expected, though. Humerically speaking.
Plus I like having all 3 Harbaughs together.
But hey I'm just tacking stuff on feel free to tack on to the tacking

October 27th, 2016 at 3:06 PM ^
Need someone with a decent voice to sing it.
October 27th, 2016 at 6:17 PM ^
Right. An quality singer would actually make it funnier. It would show a real commitment to the bit.
Plus there wouldn't be blood running out of my ears.
October 27th, 2016 at 3:06 PM ^
haha this is great, the one about urban after the the msu one is pretty great too.
October 27th, 2016 at 3:06 PM ^
I want to re-record this. His voice is so awful I can barely take it. If you're gonna talk through it at least be clear enough so we can understand you. Lyrics are pretty funny though
October 27th, 2016 at 3:09 PM ^
That's precisely what I was expecting as well. Plus that movie takes place in Michigan so I was very intrigued to see where this was going.
October 27th, 2016 at 3:11 PM ^
Glad I'm not the only one. Make sure to continually text Eric throughout the game this weekend with score updates. He'll love that.
October 27th, 2016 at 3:23 PM ^
same here but pleasantly surprised its the song and not the movie or anything related to stiffler
October 27th, 2016 at 7:58 PM ^
"Like warm apple pie"
October 27th, 2016 at 3:09 PM ^
Awful vocals though. Don McLean, where are you when we need you?
October 27th, 2016 at 3:12 PM ^
He played hard, played tough, did a great job came up a little short on the execution. Let's call a timeout and try this same play with a player to be named latter.

May be Vader someday later now he's just a small fry...
Not sure if sad or weird al being a genius that I always think of his star wars song before the original.
October 27th, 2016 at 3:22 PM ^
His Star Wars version is infinitely better than the affront to music that is the original.

October 27th, 2016 at 3:21 PM ^
Singing sucks but I love the lyrics
October 27th, 2016 at 3:26 PM ^
LOL at all the vocalists on the board. Like that chick who shows up at karaoke and just happens to have been all-state high school choir, sing song.
Hilarious and great work!
Beat State!!
October 27th, 2016 at 3:48 PM ^
To satisfy that burning itch
CLASSIC!
October 27th, 2016 at 3:50 PM ^
What a voice!
October 27th, 2016 at 3:56 PM ^
I have never heard of this song. I thought it was about the movie.
EDIT: Never mind, now I know it. Well done, guy who made the pardoy.
October 27th, 2016 at 6:39 PM ^
How old are you?
October 27th, 2016 at 4:07 PM ^
Yeah, the singing voice sucks, but nice concept, and a couple lines of the lyrics were actually pretty solid. Could go for a longer version with some improved lyrics, sung by somebody that can sing.
