Fight Songs

  1. Goal Horn and Goal Song

    Vegas Lights by Panic at the Disco

    Oh, if you only knew
    What we’ve been up to
    I guarantee you’d keep it secret
    So give it to me now
    We’re lost in a dream now
    Do it (5-4-3-2) one more time
    In the Vegas lights
    Where villains spend the weekend
    The deep end
    We’re swimming with the sharks until we drown
    The Vegas lights
    The lies and affectations
    Sensation
    We’re winning ’til the curtain’s coming down
    Ain’t it so, ain’t it so perfect
    Our cynical minds will make it totally worth it
    So give it to me now
    We’re lost in a dream now
    Do it (5-4-3-2) one more time
    In the Vegas lights
    Where villains spend the weekend
    The deep end
    We’re swimming with the sharks until we drown
    The Vegas lights
    The lies and affectations
    Sensation
    We’re winning ’til the curtain’s coming down
    We’re all not here for nothing
    And we’re

  2. Viva Las Vegas

    Played after wins

    [Verse 1]
    Bright light city going to set my soul
    Going to set my soul on fire
    Got a whole lot of money that’s ready to burn
    So get those stakes up higher
    There’s a thousand pretty women waiting out there
    And they’re all living the devil may care
    And I’m just the devil with love to spare
    Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas

    [Verse 2]
    How I wish that there were more
    Than the twenty-four hours in the day
    Even if there were forty more
    I wouldn’t sleep a minute away
    Oh, there’s black jack and poker and the roulette wheel
    A fortune won and lost on every deal
    All you need’s a strong heart and a nerve of steel
    Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas

    [Verse 3]
    Viva Las Vegas with you neon flashing
    And your one arm bandits crashing
    All those hopes down the drain
    Viva Las Vegas turning day into nighttime
    Turning night into daytime
    If you see it once
    You’ll never be the same again

    I’m going to keep on the run
    I’m going to have me some fun
    If it costs me my very last dime
    If I wind up broke up well
    I’ll always remember that I had a swinging time
    I’m gonna give it everything I’ve got
    Lady luck please let the dice stay hot
    Let me shout a seven with every shot
    Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas
    Viva Las Vegas
    Viva, Viva Las Vegas
