We Are the Tigers the Musical - Defense Lyrics
CAIRO:
Do you really want to lose
Everything you built to last, or
Forget, erase it from the past
Everyone is counting on you
Now
Say
Everything's okay
Don't do something
Erratic
Finish this
Entirely
No time to freeze
Someone's got to
End this thing
And you know what to say
When you're in the thick of a game
And you know your team will lose
And you see them start to pray
But they hear us in the crowd
Our voices joining loud
To spell the word they need to hear
So loud and clear
Let's hear you say it now
Defense, defense, better hold tight!
Don't let them win, not tonight
We are unshakeable, Tigers unbreakable
D-E-F-E-N-S-E, raise them back to victory
Not just on the football field
But here and now, when shit gets real
RILEY: (spoken)
If we mess with this it's going to look a hundred times worse
Than just getting help
CAIRO: (spoken)
And if we don't,
We spend the year in a murder investigation
(sung)
And I know you understand
Don't need me to hold your hand
Don't compromise, just close your eyes--
Imagine facing stands
And the school that needs these cheers
The school that needs you here
To fight along and sing the song
To save them all from fear
Defense, defense, on top now
And don't let them in, can't stop now
We are survivors, unmatchable Tigers
D-E-F-E-N-S-E, oldest cheer in history
Get the story straight and clean
Fight protect and save the team
Defense
RILEY:
Even if it hurts her
CAIRO:
Forget
RILEY:
Everyone deserts her
No one deserves this
CAIRO:
Sacrifice is worth it
Even you know it's true, I know you do
We are the soul of the school
The pride in the name
The heart and the flame
RILEY:
Our words are pure inspiration
Years of creation
RILEY, CAIRO:
Changing the nation
CAIRO: (spoken)
You asked what I can give this team, well, here it is.
We do this and we go to Regionals.
That's the whole point, isn't it? Tiger Pride?
RILEY, CAIRO:
We are the soul of the school
RILEY, CAIRO, KATE:
The pride in the name
RILEY, CAIRO, KATE, ANNLEIGH:
The heart and the flame
RILEY, CAIRO, KATE, ANNLEIGH, REESE:
Our words are pure inspiration
Years of creation
Changing the nation
Defense, defense, better hold tight
Just pray you'll get out alive
We are the Tigers, heroes and liars
D-E-F-E-N-S-E, tamper with a murder scene
Not the proudest thing we've done
But Tigers fight until they've won
They've won
We are the soul of the school (We-)
The pride in the name (We are-)
The heart and the flame (We are-)
Our words are pure inspiration (We-)
Years of creation (are-)
Changing the nation (ah-)
MATTIE: (spoken)
What's going on? I heard something
RILEY, CAIRO, KATE, ANNLEIGH, REESE:
Defense, defense
MATTIE: (spoken)
Is everything okay?
RILEY, CAIRO, KATE, ANNLEIGH, REESE:
Defense, defense, defense, defense
