OUR FAVORITE TEAMS
(RKB, 1/07)
Pre.) Whassamatta wid' Ozzie? Did he lose his girl?
He's mopin' like he ain't got a friend in the world.
It's worse than that. He's in a terrible plight:
Ozzie's team lost their game last night!
1.) Benign interest: sports and games. When we start to win, we all get crazed.
Pack up all your hopes and dreams. And pin 'em on your favorite teams.
CHORUS: Go, team, go! Let's Go Eagles ( Falcons / Buffalo
/ Red Sox)
Go, team, go! Let's Go Panthers ( Lions / Dodgers
/ Red Wings)
Go, team, go! Let's Go Cardinals ( Dolphins / Giants
/ wsElvis)
Go, team, go! Lord have mercy.
2.) New York Yankees, Rangers, Mets. Everybody place your bets.
30 cities in your league. So every 30 years, ya succeed.
Sabres jersey, hat and mug. Hockey is my choice of drug.
Frankie knows on whom he swears. Tell 'em Frankie: "It's:da Bears."
Hiram State is on a roll! My ol' college is goin' to the Olive Bowl!
Wolverines just pulled up lame. I'm switching sides to Notre Dame.
Dadburn bums just make me sick. Shouldda won, but muffed the kick.
We live and die vicariously. It's all up to the referee.
REPEAT CHORUS w/ PURPLE, then:
We live and die vicariously. It's all up to the referee.
M8.) When does a good time turn to sin? Where does idolatry begin?
INSTRUMENTAL.
3.) Oakland Raiders, San Antonio Spurs, Manchester United, the Altoona Curve.
Pittsburgh Steelers, Atlanta Thrashers, Dallas Cowboys, Green Bay Packers.
Springfield Indians, the Maple Leafs, Chicago Cubs, Kansas City Chiefs.
Crimson Tide, the Green Machine. Does your heart leap when we name your team?
REPEAT CHORUS w/BLACK, then:
Crimson Tide, the Green Machine. Does your heart leap when we name your team?
REPEAT CHORUS w/RED.
