I forget what we've tried in the past, but how about factual, satirical, funny,
or whatever song lyrics matched to a Met?

I feel the earth
move

Speaking of Carly Simon (I know, it was Carole King, so sue me) these lyrics, back in the 1980's, made me think of Keith Hernandez:

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you.

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk,
I'm a womans man --- no time to talk.
Music loud and women warm,
I've been kicked around, since I was born.

And now it's all right, it's ok.
And you may look the other way.
We can try to understand
The New York Times effect on man.

What would you say if I told you
I've always wanted to hold you?
I don't know what we're afraid of
Nothing would change if we made love

'Cause I'll be your friend
And I'll be your lover
Well, I know in our hearts we agree
We don't have to be one or the other

This is harder than I thought it was going to be, Mo was too easy and just
popped into my head this afternoon when I heard part of that song.

I've always thought of this lyric from Three Doors Down's song Kryptonite as being applicable to middle relievers -

You took for granted all the times I never let you down.

You break that one out a couple of times a year one way or another.

I was thinking something a little more specific ...

[u:3df3a7abe5]Jackson 5[/u:3df3a7abe5] et al

Rockin robin, tweet, twiddley dee
Yeah go rockin robin
Cause we're really gonna rock tonight

If I had a hammer
I'd hammer in the morning
I'd hammer in the evening
All over this land

I was so much older then, I'm younger (or at least claim to be) than that now -- O. Hernandez

I think we're wasting future parody material.
