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!

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!

The sharp-eyed might recognize Harrigan here as one of the cast members of “The Wizard of OZ”.

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.
