Heading Two Sunshine State University

To the north are the gators 
Growling “see you later” 
Then going south 
Playing French quarters with their mouth 
“We love our Hurricanes
And bit coin games 
Hitting the table 
Making a basket if able 
And when done 
Feeling brain damage not coherent but having fun” 
Still on the coincidental ride 
Another side 
Dropping Jacksons off paying the bills 
Looking to gain something to fulfill 
Big school notoriety and the skill 
Of predatory nature ending with a successful kill 
Having own luggage 
Baggage from the state University budget 
Wearing Izod promotional school ware 
Cheering ‘chomp chomp’ to rivals who dare 
Challenge those departing Pat O’Brien’s 
CBS/SEC using voodoo spells chants and crying 
Remembering leaving LA 
Not many tolls asking to be paid 
Unless taking the beach line express 
Knowing political coffers needing address 
Their coffee table books being cooked are a mess 
Trip Tik Triple A 
Showing another way 
Peering eyes might say 
“Through the Everglades 
And are you going there for grades 
Or party before choosing trades”
Weather or not you are still around in four years 
Let’s get something straight about weekend nights and drinking beers 
It is always the Buccaneers 
Behind the Captain’s wheel doing the steering 
In the new world where you both should be fearing 
While getting sunshine waiting for the next ex spelling hearing
