    Figured someone should start this thread! Post all suggestions/lyrics/videos here.

    Traci & I tweaked the lyrics to the Just Can't Get Enough song some of us were singing in Toronto. What do you think?


    When I see DC, I go out of my head
    And I just can't get enough, I just can't get enough
    All the plays United makes & all the goals they score
    I just can't get enough, I just can't get enough

    We sing & jump as we fall in love
    And I just can't seem to get enough of

    dododododododododododododododo
    dododododododododododododododo
    dododododododododododo

    (we jump during the dododododo part)

    Here are Celtics fans doing their version.

    Do you just hate that part of the chant? the whole thing? suggestions on how to make it better are appreciated or suggestions for chants that are easy to learn and get everyone singing if you
    don't want us to do this one.

    Gina, yours looks like a constructive comment...totally not in line with my half ass attempt to humor...;)

    Sure hope you did not take me seriously.

    To answer your question: I do not like the whole chant. I cannot pinpoint why, but even when done properly, to me it does not sound like a football chant.

    ah didn't realize it was a joke, I thought you were just saying you didn't like the chant. didn't take it seriously at all. just wanted input :) There are chants that the SGs do that I don't like either, certainly allowed & I appreciate your comments/suggestions.

    I just hashed this out.

    No pun intended, I swear.

    To the tune of:
    <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/TLSpj7q6_mM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
    The Black Keys; "Howlin' For You"


    Da-da da-Da Da, Da-da da-Da Da
    Da-da da-Da Da, Da-da da-Da Da

    I must admit
    It's quite plain
    All of your shots
    Are way off frame
    Its true
    Metro we're laughing at you

    There's something wrong
    With this squad
    The players here
    Have Lost the Plot
    It's true
    Metro we're laughing at you

    Da da da da (refrain)

    Jersey Scum
    Can't you see?
    Little girls
    Mock you with me
    You're Screwed
    Metro we're laughing at you

    Throw the ball
    Take a Shot
    What a Miss
    That's All You've Got
    You Fools
    Metro we're laughing at you

    Da da da da (refrain)

    Although honestly, we could just do the "Da-da da-Da Da, Da-da- da-Da Da" part for large stretches.

    Que no puedo parar (that I just can't stop)

    KAH-dah DEE-ah tay KYER-oh mahss

    If either of these is sucking it goes on backburner till next game and we're keeping it simple and constant with songs both us and LN know.

    Actually La Norte does this song a few times every game. I've not known other groups to be able to pick it up if we start it though.

    That's why we're doing it :D

    not sure. as far as i know we haven't printed anything up but I don't know about other SGs?

    I know that chant well. It's one of my favorites. Happy to help anyone who needs it.

    I was assuming we're going with this revision:

    When I see DC, I go out of my head
    I just can't get enough, I just can't get enough

    'Till our dying day, we bleed the black and red
    I just can't get enough, I just can't get enough

    We sing and jump as we fall in love
    and I just can't seem to get enough of...

    doo etc.

    I like this revision, but was it too late? I know BB sent the other lyrics out to all of their members & Blondie made a giant sign with the other lyrics. I'm not sure whether or not SE had already printed their song sheets, but they were going to add it.

    Blondie made a giant flipchart with the base songs that we agreed on with La Norte. If you want to make handouts, you might talk to her to make sure you've got the right songs/chants/lyrics.

    Geebus Srdan - we talked about this on the FB thread. LN did something similar in the past. It's just a big sign that shows the lyrics to people who don't know the songs. Cheesy? A little bit, but if we want new people to sing, we gotta teach them the songs. Or, we can just use it at the tailgate.
