A Boy Named Seo

Picture yourself on a couch at Three Rivers,
Just dropped LSD; your brain is all fried.
Manager calls you, you answer quite slowly,
Hear "Dock, you are pitching tonight."

Clemente, Oliver, Manny Sanguillen
Can't keep it straight in your head.
No-hitter flashbacks appear in his eyes
And he's gone.

Ellis showed up high... to the diamond!
Ellis showed up high... to the diamond!
Ellis showed up high... to the diamond!
Ah... Ah...

Flashing ahead to a mound near the bullpen,
Where Johnny Lunchbuckets eat burgers and fries.
Everyone smiles as he drifts past the apple,
"That dude looks incredibly high!"

Manhattan taxis appear at the door,
Waiting to take him from Shea.
Climb in the back with a wave to the crowd,
And he's gone.

Ellis is all fried... on the diamond!
Ellis is all fried... on the diamond!
Ellis is all fried... on the diamond!
Ah... Ah...

Picture yourself on a train in Penn Station,
First pitch is at Shea tonight, seven oh-five.
Suddenly flash to that gem with the Pirates,
Hurler with kaleidoscope eyes.

Ellis showed up high... to the diamond!
Ellis showed up high... to the diamond!
Ellis showed up high... to the diamond!
Ah... Ah...

Ellis is all fried... on the diamond!
Ellis is all fried... on the diamond!
Ellis is all fried... on the diamond!
Ah... Ah...



RIP Dock!

99

99 draws a cross on the mound,
99 draws on the mound,
takes the bag and slams it down,
99 draws a cross on the mound.

99 wears a necklace of claws,
99 wears claws,
puts it on when warming up,
99 wears a necklace of claws.

99 charges off the field,
99 charges the field,
take a flying leap over the line,
99 charges off the field.

99 goes hunting off season,
99 goes on a hunt,
rips out a heart and takes a bite,
99 goes hunting off season.

99 flies a fighter jet,
9 9 flies a jet,
hits 9.4 g's all on his own,
99 flies a fighter jet.

99 takes on Barry Bonds,
99 takes on Bonds,
says that fathead's full of 'roids,
99 takes on Barry Bonds.

99's traded to Philly in '01,
99's tradeda away,
although he's nuts we miss him a lot,
99's traded to Philly in '01.


Original song and lyrics.

These are great but I went with the beer song over the acid song.

I went with beer also. Partly because there was already a Lucy In the Sky/Dock Ellis parody, not to mention Grimm's Lucy/Pedro song of a couple years back. Also, the 99 song is so simple and goofy that it won me over.

Simple and goofy, just like Turk.

Dammit. I misvoted for Seo by mistake. Sorry Willets. Count one the other way in favor of Willets.

Eh. They both suck.



Kidding. I actually liked them both a lot. Willets took a big chance, but I think it's the perfect song for Turk. Lucy in the Sky parodies are always fun for me. I would put this one notch down from "Harrelson's too slight for fighting" (forgot who did that one, if anyone remembers let me know) but still a classic.

On Edit: I was going to vote for Seo (sorry Willets) so I will put in a vote for Willets to offset seawolf.

Whether on beer or acid, both of these are a trip. Well done!

So it's 10-9 then with Wolf's vote counted right. I think I squeaked another one out.

Good fight, WP.

Edit: Nevermind on the score. Missed CF's post.

Congrats Seo. And thanks to the 8 voters who picked my parody. I felt that the concept was great but that I rushed the execution. Alas!

Me fuckin' too.

I parody like I love.
