Marching Band 2005

Out of breath and sweat dripping down our face,
We've just finished another run through and to do another we race,
Three down, two more to go,
State fair tomorrow, we run to and fro.

Our vacation ended six weeks before,
Our summer started with band camp, days four,
During that week time flew by,
Before we knew it, it was 2025.

We'd gone through Oprah, Traditions, and Bohemian Rhapsody,
And sang to the graduate seniors three,
Now we were married, divorced, and everything in between,
Then we snapped back to reality,

It was 2005 and we were still young,
We had the whole summer still undone,
We sweat and screwed up and practiced to hours,
And perfected our show with all of our power,

And now State Fair had finally come,
All the hard work is finally done,
We perform our best show in over two years,
We'd come together as a band and conquered our fears.

We didn't get the placing we wanted, but it's all okay,
We all did our best in every way,
We'd grown together and improved quite a bit,
And look forward to next year, when we can do it all again.
