Campus officials responded Friday morning to the hotly-debated movement to change the lyrics of Georgia Tech’s own fight song in order to make it more accepting of women at the Institute. However, going above and beyond the call of duty, a committee consisting of students and faculty from all over campus have released a completely retooled fight song that eliminates the line in question altogether along with every other line in the cheer. Below are the lyrics to The Ramblin’ Wreck’s new fight song, “I Support The Georgia Institute of Technology”



”I Support The Georgia Institute of Technology”

mmmmmmm mmHMMMmm mhhhmmm mhm

mmhh hmmm hmm hmmm mmmm

mmm mmm MMMMMMMM mmmmhmmmm

(wave hands enthusiastically in air)



HHMMMM hmmm hmmmm mmm mmm

hmm mmmhHH hhmmm mmhh mmhh mmm

mmm MMM mm mmm mm

(open arms widely and make an empathetic face)

mmm mmm mmmm hmmmm HMMMM m

mm hhhmm mmmm hmmm mmm

MMMM MMM HMMM MMM HMMM

(wave at the football field and smile)

“Yes, we went through the original ‘Greatest Fight Song on Earth’ with the same fine-toothed comb of scrutiny the initial complainers used and found the entire thing to be riddled with inequality,” told fourth year Kyle Goodman, one of the panel’s writers. “References to 3000 pounds of sugar and barrels of rum are extremely disrespectful to those who suffer from diabetes and cirrhosis, respectively.”



Despite hours of hard work that could have been spent solving virtually any other campus issue, even this new song has drawn some harsh criticism. Some students fear that it discriminates against the lipless as humming will be near-impossible for them.



The committee has decided that should “I Support The Georgia Institute of Technology” face any backlash, they will have to settle to changing it again, this time to the 2013 Adele hit “Skyfall”.
