Tribute to Jimmer

Okay, this is my tribute to Jimmer, Michael Jackson style. Sung to the tune of Thriller. Thanks for the Emerys, we'll never Fredette.

Jimmer Thriller

It's close to tip off and something awesome’s warming up the floor

Under the spotlight, you see a sight that makes you want to roar

You hold a sign showing all your gre-at admiration

You start to cheer as you see him with your own eyes

You're super psyched

'Cause this is Jimmer, Jimmer night

And no one's gonna save you from the man about strike

You know it's Jimmer, Jimmer night

You're fighting for a win against a Jimmer, Jimmer tonight

You see him coming and realize there's nowhere left to run

You see the ball bounce and wonder if you'll ever see the sun

You close your eyes and hope that this is just imagination, yeah!

But all the while you hear the sneakers running up behind

You're out of time

'Cause this is Jimmer, Jimmer night

There ain't no second chance against the man with fifty points, yeah

Jimmer, Jimmer night

You're fighting for a win against a Jimmer, Jimmer tonight

Emery is stealing the ball, the whole team is making their threes

There's no escaping BYU players this time

(They're open wide)

This is the end of your life

They're out to get you, there's Cougars closing in on every side

They dominate you, can you see that number on the board

Now is the time for you and I to bleed blue together, yeah

All through the night I'll show you who’s the player of the year

I'll make you see

That this is Jimmer, Jimmer night

'Cause Jimmer can score more than any player on the floor

Jimmer, Jimmer night

So let me bleed true blue and show you

Jimmer, Jimmer, Jimmer, Jimmer here tonight

'Cause this is Jimmer, Jimmer night

Oh, Jimmer can score more than any player on the floor

Jimmer, Jimmer night

So let me bleed true blue and show you Jimmer, Jimmer, ow!

(He’s gonna Jimmer tonight)

Raining threes across the land

The ending hour is close at hand

Emery steals again the ball

Look at those numbers on the wall

And whosoever shall be found

Fouling Jimmer in the town

Must stand and face the swishing sound

He makes the extra points abound

It’s the Jimmer tonight, ooh baby

It’s the Jimmer tonight, oh darlin'

Jimmer night, baby, ooh!

The Cougar spirit’s in the air

The blue and white of yesteryear

And screaming fans from everywhere

Are closing in to have their share

And though you fight to stay alive

Your body starts to quiver

For no mere mortal can prevent

The power of the Jimmer
