Metmas Carols

It's a feature we did once on MOFo. We probably wore it out, but I'm bringing it back because things they are slow.

I'll start

Norfolk sidewalks, New York sidewalks
Who knows where you'll awake?
When so few on your team still have options
There you're closing, here you're mopup
Rollerblade 'til you ache
And when the Mets GM calls you, you hear

Hi, Heath Bell
Bye, Heath Bell
Flying from Norfolk to the City
You and Ring
Have run out the string
But the Pads just might let you both play
Another:

DiFelice found a job!
DiFelice found a job!
DiFelice found a job!
Bats zero, he has found another team to rob!

Interesting that Carlos is an anagram for Carols.

I thought this thread was going to be about Beltran and Delgado's Christmas get-together in Puerto Rico.

From the Mets of Triple A

Duaner got his arm broke by a drunkard
Driving in Miami in July
You can say there's no such thing as shit luck
But Tom Glavine, he would tell you, it's a lie


He'd been pitching like a Godsend
But he should have caught the bus
And he'd have gotten to the airport
And Nady'd still be here with us

When we'd heard he'd broke his shoulder
We thought the year was up in smoke
But Heilman really raised his game up
'Til Yadier Molina, what a joke!

Oh, Duaner got...

I saw three chips get traded off
On Chrismas Day, on Christmas Day
I saw three chips get traded off
On Christmas Day in the morning

And what was in those chips all three,
On Christmas day, on Christmas day?
And what was in those chips all three,
On Christmas day in the morning?

Milledge, Pelfrey, Humber, see
On Christmas day, on Christmas day;
Milledge, Pelfrey, Humber, see
On Christmas day in the morning.

Pray whither went those chips all three
On Christmas day, on Christmas day?
Pray whither went those chips all three
On Christmas day in the morning?

To Boston, Tampa, and KC
On Christmas day, on Christmas day,
To Boston, Tampa, and KC
On Christmas day in the morning.

And what'd we get beneathe our tree
On Christmas day, on Christmas day?
And what'd we get beneathe our tree
On Christmas day in the morning?

Wakefield, Cantu, and Greinke
On Christmas day, on Christmas day;
Wakefield, Cantu, and Greinke
On Christmas day in the morning.

I took three shits in disbelief
On Christmas day, on Christmas day;
I took three shits in disbelief
On Christmas day in the morning.

Cantu's upside is pretty good, though his downside is Luis Lopez.

that was a really funny one.

Chanukah songs are feeling left out...

I have an injured pitcher
His arm is made of clay
And when he throws a fastball
He'll hit the DL that day

El duque duque duque
Your arm is made of clay
And when you come off the DL
Baseball you shall play

He has very little stamina
The Mets should toss him in the trash bin
In the 3rd inning when he gets tired
the Mets' opponent will win!

He's pretty far over the hill
His curveball will not spin
An unhappy game of baseball
The Mets can't possibly win!


]I have a little dreidel
I made it out of clay
And when it's dry and ready
Then dreidel I shall play

CHORUS

Oh dreidel dreidel dreidel
I made it out of clay
And when it's dry and ready
Then dreidel I shall play

It has a lovely body
With legs so short and thin
And when it is so tired
It drops and then I win!

CHORUS

My dreidel's always playful
It loves to dance and spin
A happy game of dreidel
Come play now, let's begin!

CHORUS


p.s. if i get el duque in the song contest i've already lost...

Here comes Mr. Met, here comes Mr. Met
Right down third base line
Pepsi shooter girls and their dumb tee shirts
Shootin' ain't it fine

Mets are winnin', fans are grinnin'
What a beautiful sight
Punch your glove and say HEY HO
'cause Mr. Met comes tonight!

Here comes Willie Claus, here comes Willie Claus
'top the dugout steps
He's got a card thats got the bats
Gonna get a lotta yeps

Mets are winnin', fans are grinnin'
What a beautiful sight
Punch your glove and say HEY HO
'cause Willie Claus comes tonight!

Here comes Zito Claus, here come Zito Claus
Right down Omar lane
Him and Boras gonna screw the Mets
More money to be gained

Mets are winnin', fans are grinnin'
What a beautiful sight
Punch your glove and say HEY HO
'cause Zito Claus comes tonight!

Always in some danger
Of breaking his head
The nephew of Jesus
Signed this year by Fred

The stars in our lineup
Sometimes wouldn't wake
When lefties were pitching
And Wright wouldn't rake

I love the manuever
Though fear for his knees
That he'll fall from his treadmill
Fall prey to fierce bees

See, the nephew of Jesus
May fit better than Cliff
'Cause he bats righthanded
And tends not to whiff

But he's scarce an improvement
O'er Floyd's sketchy health
A risky investment
Of Wilpon's sweet wealth

I cry to you, Jesus
You once were a Met
Please guide our dear Moises
Our new power threat

MINAYA AND WILPON
We wish you would sign this contract,
We wish you would sign this contract,
We wish you would sign this contract to pitch for us this year


BORAS AND ZITO
Add a year and 15 million,
Add a year and 15 million,
Add a year and 15 million and a new private plane

We won't sign until we get more,
We won't sign until we get more,
We won't sign until we get more and Tom Hicks is calling.


MINAYA AND WILPON
We think Boras is just bluffing,
We think Boras is just bluffing,
We think Boras is just bluffing but there's always Suppan

We three Reyes played shortstop as Mets
Succeeded each other in Metly vignettes
Batting, running, catching, gunning
Different levels of threats

Oh, oh... Latin shortstops, here at Shea
Varying levels of infield play
Slick and athletic, sometimes pathetic
Each of us bore the title "Rey"


Ordonez was I, with glove made of gold
Lied on the form that asked me "How old?"
Harmless contact, burdensome contract
"Met fans are dumber than mold"

Oh, oh... Latin shortstops, here at Shea
Varying levels of infield play
Slick and athletic, sometimes pathetic
Each of us bore the title "Rey"


Reyes am I, I'm faster than light
Swing at a pitch three feet to the right
Irrepressible, happy, accessible
Help me, my hammies are tight

Oh, oh... Latin shortstops, here at Shea
Varying levels of infield play
Slick and athletic, sometimes pathetic
Each of us bore the title "Rey"


I am Rey Sanchez, I played in between
Haircuts in-game cause fans to vent spleen
My playing was smelly, got traded for Kelly
Successor was only nineteen

Oh, oh... Latin shortstops, here at Shea
Varying levels of infield play
Slick and athletic, sometimes pathetic
Each of us bore the title "Rey"


I am Matsui, no "Rey" in my name
My presence at short makes this song kind of lame
I am the blemish of Edgy's premise
Bastard forgets that I came

Oh, oh... Latin shortstops, here at Shea
Varying levels of infield play
Slick and athletic, sometimes pathetic
Each of us bore the title "Rey"

Very nice! The Mets will become less lyrical when they start playing in a stadium with a name that's not as rhyme-friendly as "Shea."
