The lesbians have co-opted "We Are Family?" Too bad! But, you know, the first group to use the song as a theme were the Pittsburg Pirates, during their World Series run in 1979.

If you get the lesbian thing out of your mind, it's a really cool song.

In memory of Wilver Dornell Stargell, aka "Pops":

We Are Family
Sister Sledge

We are family!
I got all my sisters with me!
We are family!
Get up ev'rybody and sing!

Ev'ryone can see we're together
As we walk on by.
(FLY!)
And we fly just like birds of a feather ---
I won't tell no lie!
(ALL!)
All of the people around us they say
"Can they be that close?"
Just let me state for the record,
We're giving love in a family dose!

We are family!
I got all my sisters with me!
We are family!
Get up ev'rybody and sing!

We are family!
I got all my sisters with me!
We are family!
Get up ev'rybody and sing!

Living life is fun and we've just begun
To get our share of the world's delights!
(HIGH!)
High hopes we have for the future
And our goal's in sight!
(WE!)
No, we don't get depressed.
Here's what we call our golden rule ---
"Have faith in you and the things you do."
You won't go wrong
This is our family jewel!

My sister and girl cousins like to sing that when we get together. Of course, we only know the refrain! LOL!
