What is this song called?

December 12, 2006 8:32 PM

SongFilter: I heard this song on the radio, but I don't know what it's called. It goes something like this...

"Cheerleaders keep everybody hyped with pom poms."

and

"Cheerleaders always seem to get the football players."

and

"There comes a point in everybody's life when you have to make the hardest choice you'll ever make."

It's a guy singing. There's a synth. It's funny and about highschool. I've googled the lyrics and that usually works for me, but this is the first time google has completely failed for something like this.

If it helps anyone I heard this on WIUX, Indiana University Bloomington's student radio station. Unfortunately, it's finals week so there's just an automatic rotation, I guess all the djs are studying.

You might want to locate the station manager (http://mypage.iu.edu/~sujpark/contact.html) and see if they can help you out. If you can't find it on Google, chances are it is a local band, and not on the Google (gasp).

Such a cute song, right? It's Cheerleaders vs Drillteam by Totally Michael (myspace link).
