SHOULDER HELD TOGETHER WITH SCREWS

(A-wa a-wa) orsulak o manzanillo o hillman
(A-wa a-wa) pete schourek huskey ah todd hundley
(A-wa a-wa) mo gozzo eddie murray bonilla...


They're a bad team
It's no use to hide it
Worst team that money could buy

They need pitching
McIlvaine says “Fuck it”
McIlvaine says “fuck it, got nothing to lose”
Signs Tanana
Tanana-na
He's got a shoulder held together with screws
Tanana
Tanana-na
He's got a shoulder held together with screws
Shoulder held together with screws
Shoulder held together with screws
Shoulder held together with screws
Shoulder held together with screws

People got real crazy
When they all read it in the Daily News
Well that's one way to lose in orange and blue
Shoulder held together with screws

Frank's game had physically gone rotten
But his arm was sure a rocket
On the Angels
He once did lead the league in strikeouts and was an All Star
Wearing those h—a—l—o--s

And Frank would say oo oo oo
As if anybody knows
How he could get guys out
As if anybody here would know
Exactly how he could get guys out
Sporting that shoulder held together with screws

Hundley makes the sign for a fastball
Frank throws it slow like a curve
The old guy changes speeds
And tries to sneak one away
To compensate for his ordinary stuff

And he said my pitches they are dancing
But guys ended up all hitting
Them a fair way
Past the scoreboard and by the rats out there in Flushing Bay
'Cause of that shoulder held together with screws

And fans would say boo hoo hoo
And everybody there would know
What they all were crying out
I mean everybody there would know exactly
What they were crying out
Crying out “Dump him!”

Frank was traded to the Yankees
And then hung up his cleated shoes
Well, his career was minute
In orange and blue
Shoulder held together with screws

Tanana
Tanana-na
(Repeat to fade out)

"You're So Lame"/Tom Glavine/”You’re So Vain”- Carly Simon

You strolled onto the ballclub like you were walking onto a yacht
Your hat strategically creased, pretending that
New York was your favorite spot
You had one eye on Atlanta as you watched the Mets slow rot….

And all the fans dreamed that you’d be their savior
You’d be their savior, and......

You're so lame, the Tomahawk will always define you
You're so lame (so lame), I'll bet you still think Smoltz is behind you
Don't You? Don't You?


You had us several years ago when we were still quite naive
Well you said Queens and you were a pretty pair
And that we would never grieve
But you gave away that Marlins game, and knew then that you were free

You had some dreams, Bobby Cox in your coffee
Cox in your coffee, and......

You're so lame, the painful losses never disturbed you
You're so lame (so lame), I'll bet you still think Smoltz is behind you
Don't You? Don't You?


Well I hear you sneaked down to old Turner Field when your Braves naturally won
Then you flew Greg Maddux to Waialea
To have a full day of golf in the sun
Like a prisoner counting down the time
Three-hundredth win, who with?

You’ll never deny it, that Chipper’s a close friend
Chipper’s a close friend, and.....

You're so lame, the Tomahawk will always define you
You're so lame (so lame), I'll bet you still think Smoltz is behind you
Don't You? Don't You? Don't You?

Great work guys!

The Paul Simon/Tanana worked for me a little better, so I went for that one.

Wow!
Two really good parodies.
The battle of the Simons.
It was tougher to match the Paul Simon song, and that swung my vote in that direction.
But the Carly Simon song would have won my vote in most other contests.

"Shoulder Held Together with Screws" has to be from the same guy who brought us "Every Day I Wrap the Foot."

How did the world let Paul Simon get away with that wig?

I haven't read these yet, just the titles.

Shoulder Held Together With Screws = Diamond On The Soles Of Her Shoes.

Just that title alone should win something! Ha.

How do I indicate that I think this one is a tie? Just by saying it?
This one's a tie. I abstain.
