‘Twas the weekend before Superbowl LII
And with hoodies, t-shirts, and hats
Us Eagles fans were wearing our green
To ward off the goddamned Pats!
We’ve banned Pat Patriot, renamed B****fan Market
And thrown our B****n Creme pies in the trash
While the good guys with badges lubed up the poles
With Crisco against decisions rash.
We’ve cussed out our neighbor with the New England bumper sticker
Keyed the paint and slashed the tires,
Held high our banners and lit up the night
With ill-begotten trashcan fires.
Throughout the City of Brotherly Love
From the Delaware to the Schuylkill,
The Iggles Nation has been getting their hype
Barely feeling the winter chill.
We rammed the Rams, looted the Raiders
And sent them Dirty Birds packing
With the speed of a cheetah, the grace of gazelles
And some judicious quarterback sacking.
Sixteen games during regular season
And two more in the post
Nick Foles’ mighty throwing arm
Helped the offense doing the most.
On Cox! On Graham! On Peters and Ertz!
Jenkins, jump on Gronk and get him down.
Run Tom Brady through with a rail
And ride him out of town!
Six rings? Six rings? I think not.
That fantasy’s a futile dud.
2005 was 18 years ago
This time we’re coming for blood!
Under the guidance of Our Lord Pederson
And with the tiniest bit of luck,
We’ll blaze into Minneapolis like a fire
Tell Belichick we don’t give a… flip. 😉
We’re loud, we’re nasty, we’re obstreperous and rude,
We’re gonna heckle and cheer
Someone polish the f’ing Lombardi Trophy
Because our boys are bringing it here!
So this Sunday, on your big screen
While you’re sharing a cheesesteak with friends,
Know that night is the close of an era,
The night a “dynasty” ends.
Victorious with pride we’ll emerge;
New England can go home and cry.
We’re going in to get this done.
Fly, Eagles, fly!
