Cubs owners are right-wing and rotten
Their millions, no doubt, are ill-gotten
Once I cheered for their team
Now they’ve ruined the dream
Though the thrills of the past ain’t forgotten.
Cubs owners are right-wing and rotten
Their millions, no doubt, are ill-gotten
Once I cheered for their team
Now they’ve ruined the dream
Though the thrills of the past ain’t forgotten.
An infield that played like a dream
Three winners that made a great team
Now last-minute trades
But the past never fades
They’ll live out their days in esteem.

Some pitchers who try and get tricky
Will switch to a substance that’s sticky
When hitters allege
This gives them an edge
Hurlers bitch that the league is too picky.
Once sluggers who slugged would forego
Making trots round the bases a show
Now they point to the sky
Flip the bat, wave goodbye
What theatrics await their next blow?
