"Hurt Like Hell: The John Stearns Story" to the tune of "Gives You Hell" by the All American Rejects I look down the third base line With a big smile on my face He thinks he’s coming in my space And Parker’s probably wond’ring How to reach home base I wanna put him in his place Gonna break his face Gonna hurt like hell, gonna hurt like hell When you reach home plate Gonna give you hell, gonna give you hell Now where’s Mikey’s offense, man? His bat, it needs CPR I know he can hit it far Don’t go up there tense, man Then he hit that ball so hard Sent up cheers around the yard Now let’s beat the Card’nals Then let’s beat the Yankees He’s out of the cage Gonna hit like hell, gonna hit like hell Now he’s found his stroke Gonna hit like hell, gonna hit real well Flash in the pan? No, he’s the man, I gotta tell Take you to school and it’s just as well, hope he hits like hell Just walk him, An-ki-el That one time when I slammed Bill Gullickson And Chief Noc-A-Homa The list goes on and on Truth be told, I’ll hit you Truth be told, I’m crazy That fan is in my space Gonna give him hell, gonna give him hell Tried to walk my way So I gave him hell, so I gave him hell I’ll hit a fan, don’t give a damn, goodbye, farewell If he’s a fool out on the field then I’ll give him hell Now Dave’s gonna see Through a mask like hockey He could stay back at third base Or crash into me And here’s all your teeth They fell here at my feet Get a big, bad helmet It’ll look so swell If we’re in your space Gonna hurt like hell, gonna hurt like hell If we don’t bring mace Gonna give us hell, gonna give us hell You’ll hit a fan, don’t give a damn, goodbye, farewell We’re being fools out on the field so you’ll make us swell Gonna break Dave’s face Gonna give him hell, gonna give him hell (gonna give him hell) When you reach home plate Gonna hurt like hell, gonna hurt like hell (gonna hurt like hell) Don’t get me wrong, it’s just a song, and it’s just as well But you’re a fool, yeah I can tell, gonna give you hell When you come along, I know that I will give you hell Come at me wrong and I’ll put you through…

Great entry seawolf. Good luck to you.

Two great entries! Seawolf was definitely pandering for my vote. And damn, it worked! But Mr. Masato was also wonderful (and Yoshii is a sentimental favorite because my boys were very into Mario Bros. games when Yoshii was a Met).

am i remembering wrong or has the song val used been used several times before in these contests? maybe i'm just remembering it from a car commercial. someone answer this for me, these are both good entries and i'd consider "new song" to be a tiebreaker for my vote.

Valadius Dec 20 2008 03:09 PM

Well it was used in a VW commercial, I believe. I haven't been around for all of the contests so I couldn't answer definitively.

Is everyone here good at this spoof thing? I haven't seen a bad entry yet. You make this difficult ;)

I don't get why he doffs his cap to Yoshii, saying he does the job he was needed to do, then calls him a killjoy. You need an ending, call Bobby Jones a Killjoy. Seriously, though, fine writin'.

Valadius Dec 20 2008 08:07 PM

I doff my cap to Yoshii because we needed every single game he won during the regular season to make the playoffs. I call him a killjoy because he then didn't do a great job during the playoffs.

I went with Mr. Masato. Brilliant.

Valadius Dec 22 2008 06:15 PM

Thanks Fman. I think I can declare victory - good game, seawolf.
