Color Guard

Shining sabres in the sun

Twinkling maces so much fun

Rifles spinning and whirling

Flags tossing and twirling

Elaborate costumes and glitter galore

All over the stadium floor

The band blaring as they move

Across the field, they start to groove

Dance and technique is our number one goal

As we spin and dance, pouring out our soul

Our elaborate hair and sparkling boots are a hit

Our precision tosses timed to the music are a perfect fit

We step onto the field for our last and final show

Our stomachs flutter rapidly as we start to go

Onto the field with a huge commotion

Performing a near-perfect show filled with emotion

The marching season is over and finally ends

We have all become close, forever friends

United by hours of blood, sweat, and tears

Our marching band and color guard memories will play in our heads for years
