This is a parody of Europe's classic song "The Final Countdown," with lyrics changed for the 2011 New York Jets' playoff run.

Lyrics:

J...E...T...S!
J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets!

We're leaving together
And still we stand tall
They said we weren't supposed to be here
We've heard that before
So many years have passed by
And now's our time (now's our time)
Remember 1969
It's the final countdown

We're headed for Pittsburgh
But we're not afraid
The last stop is Dallas
And then our parade, yeah
We'll walk the streets together
We'll paint the town green (paint the town green)
It's not the "Same old Jets" you'll see
It's the final countdown
The final countdown

When you're a Jet, you're a Jet all the way
From training camp 'till the last game played
Gang Green
Yeah we're proud to be
And now it's time to let the world see we're like soldiers
We never say die
We ground and pound
We can hit cha from the sky
And the defense?
You can say what you will
Yeah we like to talk
But we aim to thrill

J...E...T...S!
J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets!
It's the final countdown
We're leaving together
The final countdown
It's now or never
It's the final countdown
The final countdown

The track was created by Joe from Stanford and sent to the Boomer & Carton Show on WFAN, with an excerpt played on air on 1/20/11.  I'm sharing this fair-use parody song as a fan because many people asked for a downloadable version of this well-made track.  Joe from Stanford and/or whoever else had a role in creating this track: please feel free to contact me at [email protected] so that I can more fully credit you for your work or take it down in case you object.

Good luck to Rex Ryan and the NY Jets this Sunday in Pittsburgh!
