Current mood: silly
Is there a real life-
Or is it fantasy-
Outside of basics,
My escape from reality.
Open your eyes,
Though we're in disguise, they see
I'm just a band geek,
I need no sympathy
'Cause I march in the sun, in the snow,
Sick or tired, I still go.
Even when the wind blows,
Or if it's two hundred degrees, degrees.
Mama, I'm in the cult
Marched twelve miles eight-to-five, it's a wonder I'm alive
Mama, band camp's just begun,
I've tossed my hopes of sanity away
Mama, ooh, so what if I'm a wreck
You know that I'll be there again tomorrow,
Marching on, marching on
Because marching really matters.
Too late, the drill has come
Panic running through my mind
'Cause the back field isn't lined
Goodbye, everybody, I've got to play
Gotta rehearse John Williams still today
Mama, ooh, ('specially when the wind blows)
I just wanna die- I sometimes wish I'd never signed up at all!
I see a little silhouetto of a block,
Back left slide! Front right flank!
Can you pull the maneuvers?
Mark time to the ankle,
Hope seniors don't mangle thee!
People's Choice! GE visual!
People's Choice! GE visual!
GE visual? I don't know
Still flags to sew...
I'm just a pitster, nobody follows me
He's just a pitster, pathetic as can be
He doesn't march, his problem I can't see!
Fingers are turning blue- what's a flute to do?
Play trombone! No, we'll never play trombone!
Play trombone! On your life, we'll never play trombone!
Play trombone! On your life, we'll never play trombone!
Play trombone! Never play trombone!
Play trombone! Never, never, ever play trombone!
No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
John Phillip Sousa, Mr. Sousa, Mr. Sousa let me go
The sousaphones have no intervals beside of me, of me, of me!
So you think you can mock us and say that we're weird?
Hey, that's just your opinion, we know that we're feared!
Oh, baby, are we crazy, just maybe!
When we watch films starring the Knights Who Say Ni!
Marching really matters, anyone could see,
Marching really matters, marching really matters to me
Even when the wind blows...

You know you've been in band too long when (some new ones, some of the same...i found them on msn):


10.You walk in step with any one you walk with.

9.You always step out with your left foot.

8.When you hear a song you can distinguish individual notes and instruments.

7.You mark time to songs on the radio.

6.Your right foot always hits the line in the pavement.

5.You can tell who is a drummer, even from another band because he's hot and stupid.

4.You hear another band and you cringe when they play anything you've played because you KNOW you play it better.

3.When ANYONE asks "Are there any questions?" You always think "No sir."

2.You walk in the mall & you can tell who else is a band nerd because they walk in step with their friends.

1.When you just want to kill the next person who says : "This one time at band camp..
