Trademark-Infringing Tune Tuesdays VOL X: I Wish it was Christmas Today

Because this is the off season and there's nothing better to do, because there are approximately 4(!) days until football season (that's just a guesstimate, give or take a few), and because it's Tuesday and you need a pick-me-up, I'm presenting the year's final installment of "Trademark-Infringing Tune Tuesdays". Trademark-Infringing Tune Tuesdays is an off-topic post that will feature a band playing a song by a different band each week. Some you may have heard and, hopefully, some will be completely new to you.

For the tenth and final installment of this year's Trademark-Infringing Tune Tuesdays, and in the spirit of the most wonderful time of the year being a mere 4 days away, I present Julian Casablancas's version of Saturday Night Live's "I Wish it was Christmas Today".


I don't care what the students say, football time is near
I don't care what my professors say, football is full of cheer
All I know is the Orange and Blue, are making their way to play for me and you
I wish there was football today

I wish there was football today
I wish there was football today oh oh
I wish there was football today
I wish there was football today oh oh
All I know is that Gene Chizik
Don't care about what ESPN thinks about us
I wish there was, I wish there was, I wish there was, I wish there was

I don't care what the coaches say, Auburn is #1
I don't care what the media says, Auburn won't be outdone
I don't care about anything, but hearing that band play and all the fans sing
I wish there was football today, on that good ol' village on The Plains

I wish there was football today
I wish there was football today oh oh
I wish there was football today
I wish there was football today oh oh
Coach Chiz is bringing a lot of wins
So be sure to be here when the season begins.
I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it!

WAR EAGLE!
