We All Rise Anyway
At the arena
Section 105
A girl stands in the staircase, microphone in hand
We were told that we would celebrate our great nation
we were never told, however,
to stand and take the hats off our heads.
God Bless America
the song starts
We were all proud of our country
We were never explicitly told to stand,
But we all rise anyway.
The fact that we are all a patriotic crowd
That we were never told to stand like this was the Star-Spangled Banner
That we would feel like jerks if we didn't act like it was,
because if we didn't, we would be very disrespectful,
We all rose anyway.
