(to the tune of Barry McGuire\u2019s \u2018Eve of Destruction\u2019)<\/em><\/p>\n

The Southeast Division, it is exploding<\/strong><\/p>\n

Offenses flarin’, backs a smokin’<\/strong><\/p>\n

La Mirada fits the bill, but thats just hoping<\/strong><\/p>\n

Norwalk should get it done, but why does it keep on choking<\/strong><\/p>\n

And even West Covina has had its moment broken<\/strong><\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

But you tell me<\/strong><\/p>\n

Over and over and over again, my friend<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ah, you don’t believe<\/strong><\/p>\n

In San Gabriel Valley League production…<\/strong><\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

Don’t you understand what I’m tryin’ to say<\/strong><\/p>\n

Can’t you feel the fears of playing Jack Williams today?<\/strong><\/p>\n

If realignment isn\u2019t pushed, there’s no runnin’ away<\/strong><\/p>\n

There’ll be no one to save, with the Southeast in a grave<\/strong><\/p>\n

[Take a look around ya boy, Justin Huff\u2019s bound to scare ya boy]<\/strong><\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

And you tell me<\/strong><\/p>\n

Over and over and over again, my friend<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ah, you don’t believe<\/strong><\/p>\n

In San Gabriel Valley League production…<\/strong><\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

The Pacific\u2019s so bad its full of discombobulation<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Hacienda\u2019s not much better despite the Noodles sensation<\/strong><\/p>\n

I can’t twist the truth, the Suburban\u2019s got poor represenation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Five in the Del Rio don’t pass investigation<\/strong><\/p>\n

And La Serna alone can’t balance the equation<\/strong><\/p>\n

When division respect is disintegratin’<\/strong><\/p>\n

This whole crazy Southeast is just too frustratin’<\/strong><\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

And you tell me<\/strong><\/p>\n

Over and over and over again, my friend<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ah, you don’t believe<\/strong><\/p>\n

In San Gabriel Valley League production…<\/strong><\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

Think of all the speed there is at Dominguez<\/strong><\/p>\n

Then take a look around at the Paramount Pirates<\/strong><\/p>\n

Gahr can beat you with four plays in space<\/strong><\/p>\n

Warren will return, to it’s same old place<\/strong><\/p>\n

The poundin’ of Lynwood, the pride of the Viking race.<\/strong><\/p>\n

You can bury your head, but Jorge Reyna won\u2019t leave a trace<\/strong><\/p>\n

Schedule Cerritos or Keppel, but in post-season don’t forget to say grace<\/strong><\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

And, tell me over and over and over and over again, my friend<\/strong><\/p>\n

You don’t believe<\/strong><\/p>\n

In San Gabriel Valley League production…<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mm, no no, you don’t believe<\/strong><\/p>\n

In San Gabriel Valley League production…<\/strong><\/p>\n
