"all right now this is a little song about Michigan

cause I read an article today about how our neighbors to the west in Wisconsin

decided that they're the new mitten state. Un unh. I don't think so."

Wisconsin's like our crazy uncle to the north and the west

I'm saying this with respect stick to the things that you know best

like beer and cheese and cheese and beer and cheese

but when it winter clothes and shapes

I'm begging you please

cause how much sauce have you been hittin' there's only one state that's shaped like a mitten

that's Michigan, that's Michigan!

now you're the kings of cheese and beer and there's just one thing we'll always hold dear

we're the mitten state that's loud and clear!

now Michigan went to war in 1835

when Ohio wanted a little piece of our southern side

we fought a short and almost bloodless war

we lost Toledo but that's okay we love our mitten status more!

how much moldy cheese have you been eatin

cause it's our shape that your mistreatin'

in Michigan, in Michigan!

if you wanna fight you best just surrender we'll put you through one hell of a bender

we're Michigan, we're Michigan!

I'm telling you it's not a shame if you wanna new nickname it's not too late

no need to hang your head in sorrow! start it today or start it tomorrow

Wisconsin! the one eared pointy sock creature mitten envy beer drinking state!

there's just one reason why I must protest

there's 50 states and we're right next to you

how did you think nobody'd notice?

cause how much sauce have you been hittin' there's only one state that's shaped like a mitten

that's Michigan, that's Michigan!

now I can understand why you're smitten!

but leaves your dirty paws off our mitten

we're michigan we're michigan!
