'Skin O' My Teeth' by Megadeth....the Sox are definately hanging on by the skin of their teeth....how is this lyric from the song...

 

I need a ride to the morgue

That's what 911 is for

So, tag my toe and don't forget

Ooh to close the drawer

 

That being said, Go Sox!....maybe the Song we'll be singing next week will be 'Celebrate'

I don't know about the Sox, but here's one for Soxtalk. . .

 

I'm so happy 'cause today

I've found my friends ...

They're in my head

I'm so ugly, but that's okay, 'cause so are you ...

We've broken our mirrors (Alt: We broke our mirrors)

Sunday morning is everyday for all I care ...

And I'm not scared

Light my candles, in a daze

'Cause I've found god

Hey, hey hey [x6]

 

I'm so lonely, but that's okay, I shaved my head ...

And I'm not sad

And just maybe I'm to blame for all I've heard ...

But I'm not sure

I'm so excited, I can't wait to meet you there ...

But I don't care

I'm so horny, but that's okay ...

My will is good

Hey, hey hey [x6]

 

[x2]

I like it - I'm not gonna crack

I miss you - I'm not gonna crack

I love you - I'm not gonna crack

I killed you - I'm not gonna crack

I killed you - I'm not gonna crack

Here are a few ideas-

 

"Pressure" by Billy Joel

"Too Many Ways to Fall" by Arc Angels

"Slip Sliding Away" by Simon & Garfunkel

 

Not very optimistic. But win a few against MIN and DET, and we'll all be singing,

 

"I get knocked down

But I get up again

You're never gonna keep me down"

 

("Tubthumping" by Chumbawamba)

 

(Or else, we'll be drinking a whiskey drink, a vodka drink, a lager drink, and a cider drink, all at once.) :drink

Cleveland is here again, oh Lord,

They hadn't mattered for a year or more,

Now we got to hold on a little longer

 

Rally Crede worked for one single day,

Now its magic has gone away,

And I'm postin' on this angry board

 

OOOOH, the mood on the board keeps on turnin'

Don't know how I'll feel tomorrow,

Mood on the board keeps on turning

I don't know, I don't know....

 

Timo's tryin' to make it home,

Rounded third as the ball was thrown,

I can't take this very much longer

 

I'm stranded in the upper deck,

Drunk and stupid and mad as heck,

The Central lead is slippin', it's slippin' away

 

The mood on the board keeps on turnin'

Don't know how I'll feel tomorrow,

Mood on the board keeps on turnin'

No El Duque, El Duque NOOOOO

Steve Perry. :notworthy :headbang

 

EDIT: How about...

 

"When the strikes, go down, the middle...

 

and we still can't hittttt a pitch....

 

Oh I want to be thereeeeee, in the playoffs

 

Ouuuuuuuu...Ouuuuuuuu...Oz-Oz-Oz"

The Steve Perry stuff reminds me of both Sox parodies I wrote in 2000:

 

"Herbert Perry, we neeeeed a run.....HOME run, HOME run!" (WELL IT SHOULD'VE BEEN GONE!) - written on that one day we pummelled cleveland on that 7-0 road trip with three near homers. I think Perry had two of em

 

"McKay Christensen the time has come, and you know that you're the only one..."

 

okay, enough derailing.

You make me weep

I wanna cry

Just when

You said '05

We'd be Winning

Now we're Dying

Trying

 

We were alone

All by ourselves

Top of the ALC shelf

We were winning

Now we're Dying

Trying

 

It's tearing me apart

Oh every every game

With every El Duque start

Oh what can I say

Your tearing me a part

 

Oh It won't be long now

'Til your at home

In Octo-o-o-o-ber

No, it doesn't seem fair

We were winning

Now we're Dying

Trying

 

They'll be tearing you apart

Every session at SoxFest

Tearing you apart

There'll be nowhere to hide

We were winning

Now we're Dying

Trying

 

And it's our turn now to cry-y.

 

Na Na na Na na

Na Na na Na na

Na Na na Na na

Na Na na NA NAA. . .

If you'd have stuck a ("hey hey goodbye") right at the end there, it would have been perfect. Damn close, though.....damn close.

The old Drew Carey theme song: "Cleveland Rocks"

 

"Yesterday" by the Beatles:

"Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away

Now it looks as though they're here to stay

Oh, I believe in yesterday"

 

"Under Pressure" by Queen & David Bowie

Bob Dylan - The Times They Are A-Changin'

 

Come gather 'round people

Wherever you roam

And admit that the waters

Around you have grown

And accept it that soon

You'll be drenched to the bone.

If your time to you

Is worth savin'

Then you better start swimmin'

Or you'll sink like a stone

For the times they are a-changin'.

 

Come writers and critics

Who prophesize with your pen

And keep your eyes wide

The chance won't come again

And don't speak too soon

For the wheel's still in spin

And there's no tellin' who

That it's namin'.

For the loser now

Will be later to win

For the times they are a-changin'.

 

Come senators, congressmen

Please heed the call

Don't stand in the doorway

Don't block up the hall

For he that gets hurt

Will be he who has stalled

There's a battle outside

And it is ragin'.

It'll soon shake your windows

And rattle your walls

For the times they are a-changin'.

 

Come mothers and fathers

Throughout the land

And don't criticize

What you can't understand

Your sons and your daughters

Are beyond your command

Your old road is

Rapidly agin'.

Please get out of the new one

If you can't lend your hand

For the times they are a-changin'.

 

The line it is drawn

The curse it is cast

The slow one now

Will later be fast

As the present now

Will later be past

The order is

Rapidly fadin'.

And the first one now

Will later be last

For the times they are a-changin'.
