S-P-F-L-D C-O-L (Unofficial Team Song)

S-P-F-L-D C-O-L (Unofficial Team Song)
{To the tune of Nat King Cole's L.O.V.E.}

S is for the spirit in the air,
P is for the is for the Pride we see out there,
F is oh so special, super fundamental
L is all the luck from all the times we've run amok and

D is for a dash of energy,
C is for our common courtesy,
O is very very open-minded weary,
L is all the luck from all the times we've run amok and

Pride is all that I can show to you,
Pride is more than just a name, it's true,
Sing the song with me and
Please be there to give me a hand,
The Pride were made for you and me,
The Pride were made for you and me.

I Just Can't Get Enough (Unofficial Team Song)

(From song of same name by Depeche Mode)

Du, du, du, du, du, du, du,
Du, du, du, du, du, du, du,
Du, du, du, du, du, du, du,
Springfield College,

When I see you Springfield,
I go out of my mind,
i just can't get enough,
I just can't get enough,
All the things you do today and all the things you say,
I just can't get enough.
I just can't get enough
We slip and slide and we fall in love and I just can't seem to get enough of...

We are the Springfield Pride (Unofficial Team Song)

(to the tune of "Row, Row, Row" from Ziegfield Follies Of 1912)


We are the Springfield Pride,
A fighting fury we're the Springfield Pride,
In any weather you will see us with a grin,
Risking head and skin,
If we're behind then never-mind,
We'll fight and fight and win,

We are the Springfield Pride,
We never falter til the final play is gone,
Like the Springfield of old,
We're strong and we're bold,
For we're the Springfield white and maroon,
For we're the Springfield Pride!

Join in the Chorus (Primary Unofficial Team Song)

(to Wee Deoch an' Doris)
{First two verses sung by team after win, final verse sung after every Springfield score and win}

Hearts to hearts and hands to hands,
Beneath maroon and white we stand,
We shout God bless our native land,
Old Springfield, old Springfield;

Out we come, out we come, out we come to play,
Just for recreation's sake to pass the time away,
Lots of fun, heaps of fun, enjoy yourself today,
The Springfield boys/girls are hard to beat when they come out to play;

So join in the chorus and sing it one and all,
Join in the chorus the Pride are on the ball,
Good old Springfield, they're champions you'll agree,
'Cause Springfield is the team that plays to win for you and me!
     'Til all success be nobleness from sea to shining sea!
     'Cause we will win at nationals, just you wait and see!
