The Detroit Lions have a fight song. We didn’t know that, but perhaps it’s not surprising. Hey, it’s even kind of cute. Here are the words:

Hail the colors Blue and Silver let them wave / Sing their song and cheer the Gridiron Heroes brave / Fighting for fame, winning the game / Dashing to victory as they go.

(Chorus)
Forward down the field / A charging team that will not yield / And when the Blue and Silver wave / Stand and cheer the brave / Rah, Rah, Rah.
Go hard, win the game / With honor you will keep your fame.
Down the field and gain / A Lion victory!

And here it is performed how it should be performed (chorus only): By a solitary man, playing an acoustic guitar, on a black-and-white video. Even The Cure finds it a little depressing.
