I still don't understand the reason for putting on the Simple Chants. Do people really need lyrics for those? Also, what is the Gold and Blue? I've never heard that.

I can clearly recall someone telling me (in 2005) that they thought we were saying "you'll never beat Ju-War-Ez" (Freddy Juarez) and we were total morons (well, actually, that part wasn't too far off) when we were singing about, of course, Joe Warren. So yeah, it can be useful to have the simple chants on there.

the simple chants are also on there just to remind people that they exist.

Sure, but do we really need this: **Here we go here we go here we go.** And will anyone hear the song and then look to the songsheet for clarification, thus matching it with these words? **Min-uh-so-tah Goal! Oh-oh-oh-oh-oooooh** Also, this? **Stand up, if you love the stars (repeat)**
I only bring this up, because it seems like a waste of space.

I dropped this gem I missed the first time around:

Happy May Day!
We would start with the chorus to get everyone on track like normal:
The Cup and the Dark Clouds
We will win (We will win) bye and bye (bye and bye), Raise that glorious cup in the sky (way up high), Stand on chairs (stand on chairs) Light the flares (light the flares) The nuts of a warrior, side-by-side (side-by-side!)
With hot nuts and Surley follow the Stars, At the N-S-C and travel from a-far, And when asked on the chance of defeat We will answer in voices so sweet
We will win (We will win) bye and bye (bye and bye), Raise that glorious cup in the sky (way up high), Stand on chairs (stand on chairs) Light the flares (light the flares) The nuts of a warrior, side-by-side (side-by-side!)
And the Dark Clouds supporters, we play And we sing and we clap and we sway Pounding away with Ludwig the drum Till our feet, hands, and ears all go numb.
