Lance Says a Little A-Rod Prayer
by David Bellel
The moment you shoot up,
Before you put on your makeup,
I say a little prayer for you.
While Cameron combs your hair, now,
And wondering what bling to wear, now,
I say a little prayer for you.
Forever, forever,
You’ll stay at 599
And I will hate you
Forever, forever,
We’ll watch your decline,
Oh, how I’ll hate you
Together, together,
That’s how it must be
We’re stuck for seven more years with you,
Truly a Yankee tragedy for we.

Chamberlain, That’s He
by David Bellel
.
.
Who is the man whose bad tosses will bring a loss?
Chamberlain, that’s he!
Who will surely fold when your team needs a hold?
Chamberlain, that’s he!
For he isn’t as proud of his name you see,
As a Sparky, Goose, or a Mo could be.
Who is the man that blows a lead every time he can?
Chamberlain, that’s he!
C-H-AMBER-L-A-I-N spells Chamberlain
Proud of all the Indian blood that’s in he;
Many a man can say a word agin he.
C-H-AMBER-L-A-I-N, you see,
Is a name that shame is usually been connected with,
Chamberlain, that’s he!

Feeling Good: Birds Flying Low
by David Bellel
.
.
Birds flying low, you know how I feel,
Three-hit Cano, you know how I feel,
Ten wins in a row, you know how I feel,
It’s another o-misplay
It’s a crucial CC K
It’s a Rivera save
For Yanks,
And I’m feeling good.
