The Lyrics
I guess 40 years in the wildnerness isn't long enough for Canada's signature sports team -- though some people in Montreal may have something to say about what team that is, and how many Cups they've won since 1967 (10). Note that last month, defenseman Bryan McCabe scored an "own goal" in overtime to allow the Buffalo Sabres to beat the Make Beliefs.
Oh, the fans will come
with their jerseys on
colored in Toronto blue.
And they watch this game
near the Hall of Fame
but there's not much they can do.
'Cause the puck, they drop
and they play like slop.
It's enough to make you scream.
And the puck, they loft
right past Raycroft!
Beats the bad old hockey team!
Oh! The bad old hockey team
makes you wish it was a dream.
But it's real and not a dream:
It's the bad old hockey team.
Oh, old Mats Sundin
he don't use his bean.
Got the stats, but not the win.
And Bryan McCabe
million-dollar babe
makes an "own goal," major sin.
Tomas Kaberle
overrated, he.
They're all running out of steam.
The Toronto Sun
columns by the ton
rip the bad old hockey team!
Oh! The bad old hockey team
makes you wish it was a dream.
But it's real and not a dream:
It's the bad old hockey team.
Oh, the poor old sports
reach their town's airport.
See its name, and how it hurts.
'Cause the team ain't won
since Lester Pearson
was a live Prime Minister.
The Canadiens
they might win again.
Even Ottawa can dream.
But you'll catch some grief
with the Maple Leafs!
They're the bad old hockey team!
Oh! The bad old hockey team
makes you wish it was a dream.
But it's real and not a dream:
It's the bad... old... hockey... team!
with their jerseys on
colored in Toronto blue.
And they watch this game
near the Hall of Fame
but there's not much they can do.
'Cause the puck, they drop
and they play like slop.
It's enough to make you scream.
And the puck, they loft
right past Raycroft!
Beats the bad old hockey team!
Oh! The bad old hockey team
makes you wish it was a dream.
But it's real and not a dream:
It's the bad old hockey team.
Oh, old Mats Sundin
he don't use his bean.
Got the stats, but not the win.
And Bryan McCabe
million-dollar babe
makes an "own goal," major sin.
Tomas Kaberle
overrated, he.
They're all running out of steam.
The Toronto Sun
columns by the ton
rip the bad old hockey team!
Oh! The bad old hockey team
makes you wish it was a dream.
But it's real and not a dream:
It's the bad old hockey team.
Oh, the poor old sports
reach their town's airport.
See its name, and how it hurts.
'Cause the team ain't won
since Lester Pearson
was a live Prime Minister.
The Canadiens
they might win again.
Even Ottawa can dream.
But you'll catch some grief
with the Maple Leafs!
They're the bad old hockey team!
Oh! The bad old hockey team
makes you wish it was a dream.
But it's real and not a dream:
It's the bad... old... hockey... team!

The Make Beliefs? I like that. Have another hat trick of 5's, Mike.
Nice parody work. I would love to hear this song played on a sports talk radio show (i.e. Tim and Sid). 5's all around
