All The Sabre Ladies

As y'all know I like doing song rewrites for time to time, and a few years ago in a moment of inspiration I came up with a theme song for the Veteran 40 sabre fencing Baby Vets based on the Supremes 'Baby Love.'  I heard it allegedly got on the 'Senior Mamas' nerves at one NAC tournament Dawn participated in.

Well, in honor of my homegirl heading to Reno for the US summer nationals, it's time for another song rewrite they might be singing at one of their next tournaments.

So y'all know the drill.   Fire up the IPods or CD players for you old schoolers and sing along with Moni's remixed lyrics.

All the Sabre Ladies
Sung to the tune of Single Ladies by Beyonce

 


All the sabre ladies, all the sabre ladies
All the sabre ladies, all the sabre ladies
All the sabre ladies, all the sabre ladies
All the sabre ladies,  now put your blades up

Up in the club, we just suited up
I'm doing my own fencing thing
Felt my blade tip now you wanna trip
Cause that's another point for me

I'm up on you, you're down to me
Don't pay you any attention
I sense your fears, epee and foil sneers
Ya can't be mad at me

If you like it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it
If you like it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it
Don't be mad once you see that you want it
If you liked it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (X2) 

If you like it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it
If you like it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it
Don't be mad once you see that you want it
If you liked it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it

I got gloss on my lips, uniform on my hips
We're the baddest fencers on the scene
Blade is up, parry, slash and thrust
I can care less what you think

I need no permission, did I mention
Don't pay y'all any attention
Cause you had your turn and now you gonna learn
What it feels like to mess with me

If you like it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it
If you like it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it
Don't be mad once you see that you want it
If you liked it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (X2) 

If you like it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it
If you like it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it
Don't be mad once you see that you want it
If you liked it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (X2) 

Epeeists and foillists of the world
I'm not that kind of girl
Sabre is what I prefer, what I deserve

Here's a plan that makes me then takes me
And delivers me to fencing destiny, to infinity and beyond
Tapping you upon your arms, you're the one I love to pwn
As I hear your losing groan
And a hard victory is won

All the sabre ladies, all the sabre ladies
All the sabre ladies, all the sabre ladies
All the sabre ladies, all the sabre ladies
All the sabre ladies now put your blades up
Oh, oh, oh

If you like it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it
If you like it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it
Don't be mad once you see that you want it
If you liked it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (X2) 

If you like it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it
If you like it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it
Don't be mad once you see that you want it
If you liked it then you shoulda fenced sabre darn it
Oh, oh, oh
