Fight Songs

1. S-D-S-U! Chant

   S-D-S-U!

   S-D-S-U!

   S-D-S-U!

2. Fight Song

   Fight on and on ye Aztec men
   Sons of Montezuma
   We will win again
   Keep your spirits high
   Never bow a knee
   We will fight till victory
   Fight on and on ye Aztec men
   Proudly raise your banners high
   For it’s the Red and Black
   Hail to our team
   San Diego Aztecs fight! 
   

3. Uprising

   When the band plays this song the student section chants along with the chorus “They will not force us/They will stop degrading us/They will not control us/We will be victorious!”

   Paranoia is in bloom,
   The PR transmissions will resume
   They’ll try to push drugs that keep us all dumbed down
   And hope that we will never see the truth around
   (so come on)

   Another promise, another seed
   Another packaged lie to keep us trapped in greed
   And all the green belts wrapped around our minds
   And endless red tape to keep the truth confined
   (so come on)

   They will not force us
   They will stop degrading us
   They will not control us
   We will be victorious
   (so come on)

   Interchanging mind control
   Come, let the revolution take its toll
   If you could flick the switch and open your third eye
   You’d see that we should never be afraid to die
   (so come on)

   Rise up and take the power back
   It’s time the fat cats had a heart attack
   You know that their time’s coming to an end
   We have to unify and watch our flag ascend
   (so come on)

   They will not force us
   They will stop degrading us
   They will not control us
   We will be victorious
   (so come on)

   Hey, hey, hey, hey
   Hey, hey, hey, hey
   Hey, hey, hey, hey

   They will not force us
   They will stop degrading us
   They will not control us
   We will be victorious
   (so come on)

   Hey, hey, hey, hey

4. Tarzan Boy

   Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh…

   Jungle life, I’m far away from nowhere
   On my own like Tarzan Boy
   Hide and seek, I play along while rushing ‘cross the forest
   Monkey business on a sunny afternoon

   Jungle life, I’m living in the open
   Native beat that carries on
   Burning bright, a fire that blows a signal to the sky
   I sit and wonder, does the message get to you?

   Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh…

   Night to night
   Gimme the other, gimme the other
   Chance tonight
   Gimme the other, gimme the other
   Night to night
   Gimme the other, gimme the other world

   Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh…

   Jungle life, you’re far away from nothing
   It’s all right, you won’t miss home
   Take a chance, leave everything behind you
   Come and join me, won’t be sorry
   It’s easy to survive

   Jungle life, we’re living in the open
   All alone like Tarzan Boy
   Hide and seek, we play along while rushing ‘cross the forest
   Monkey business on a sunny afternoon

   Night to night
   Gimme the other, gimme the other
   Chance tonight
   Oh, yeah
   Night to night
   Gimme the other, gimme the other
   Night to night
   You won’t play

   Night to night
   Gimme the other, gimme the other
   Chance tonight
   Oh, yeah
   Night to night, night to night
   Gimme the other, gimme the other world

   Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh…

5. Bro Hymn

   To all my friends, present past and beyond
   Especially those who weren’t with us too long
   Life is the most precious thing you can lose
   While you were here the fun was never ending
   Laugh a minute was only beginning
   Canton, Colvin, Nichols, this one’s for you

   Ever get the feeling you can’t go on
   Just remember whose side it is that you’re on
   You’ve got friends with you till the end
   If you’re ever in a tough situation
   We’ll be there with no hesitation
   Brotherhood’s our rule we cannot bend

   When you’re feeling too close to the bottom
   You know who it is you can count on
   Someone will pick you up again
   We can conquer anything together
   All of us are bonded forever
   If I die you die that’s the way it is

   To all my friends, present past and beyond
   To all those who weren’t with us too long
   Life is the most precious thing you can lose
   While you were here the fun was never ending
   Laugh a minute was only the beginning
   Canton, Colvin, Nichols, this one’s for you

6. Seven Nation Army

   I’m gonna fight ’em off
   A seven nation army couldn’t hold me back
   They’re gonna rip it off
   Taking their time right behind my back
   And I’m talkin’ to myself at night
   Because I can’t forget
   Back and forth through my mind
   Behind a cigaretteAnd the message comin’ from my eyes says, “Leave it alone.”Don’t wanna hear about it
   Every single one’s got a story to tell
   Everyone knows about it
   From the Queen of England to the hounds of hell
   And if I catch it comin’ back my way
   I’m gonna serve it to you
   And that ain’t what you want to hear
   But that’s what I’ll doAnd the feeling coming from my bones says, “Find a home.”I’m going to Wichita
   Far from this opera for evermore
   I’m gonna work the straw
   Make the sweat drip out of every pore
   And I’m bleeding, and I’m bleeding, and I’m bleeding
   Right before the lord
   All the words are gonna bleed from me
   And I will think no more

   And the stains comin’ from my blood tell me, “Go back home.”

7. I Believe That We Will Win

   I believe that we will win!

   I believe that we will win!

   I believe that we will win!

8. Aztecs Bombaye

   This chant performed by The Show dates back to the 1974 Rumble In the Jungle boxing match between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman. Ali was greeted with chants of “Ali bombaye! Ali bombaye!” The chant translates to “Ali defeat him!” and the Aztecs have adapted their own version, which goes “Aztecs bombaye! Aztecs bombaye!” The chant dates back to a 2005 football game but quickly became a staple at basketball games as well. The cheer can be heard when the Aztecs need a stop badly, so join in the chant when it's performed.

   Aztecs bombaye! Aztecs bombaye!

   Aztecs bombaye! Aztecs bombaye!

   Aztecs bombaye! Aztecs bombaye!
