The Lyrics

Oh the Yanks went back to the land where Babe's born
I must say they're lookin shopworn
Fade away, cellar stay,
Tampa Bay
Here they come

Well the ninth comes round and they put in Proctor
Walker, single
Walker, walker
What I say, make my day
Yankees fade
'Gin today

Oh, watch out here comes Tampa
Those Rays! Those Rays!
The Yanks are dead 'cause head to head
They sure can't beat young Tampa
Oy vey, those Rays
Will over take the Yankees

Yep, the Yanks are old and not to stellar
On the way straight to the cellar
Sink away, To the Bay
Tampa Bay
Here they come!

I'm a Sox fan by proxy (my dad and sister are big fans), so it's always fun to watch Yankee-Red Sox fan fights, as long as it just stays with words.
Loved the "walker, single, walker, walker" line. This one gets 5s

You are the Scott Proctor of parody writers. Any worse, and you'd be the Scott Schoenweiss. Dare I say... the Calvin Schiraldi? Maybe you should get Grady Little to take you out... wait a minute...

At least Mr. Pacholek didn't call you the "Doug Sisk" of parody writers. How about them Yankees? Three weeks ago they were World Series bound and Abreau was the next Sultan of Swing, according to the New York papers. The truth is that the cheaters from the Bronx had one good 10 game swing this year. Ask yourself this, "are the Yankees better off than they were one month ago?" Nope - they're worse. Of course they're bound to spend the equivalent of the Florida Marlins payroll by the trading deadline. This team and their fans are like the republicans of baseball. As the extremely intelligent Mrs. Pacholek would say: "Let's go Mets, Let's go Mets." Be a winner - root for the Mets. Sorry, I must go now to attend the Yankees funeral for the year.

Thanks to all you Sox and Mets fans. It will be a great World Series this year between the tow best teams in Baseball. As for the poor delusional Yankee fan, how about those Yankees last night? LOL....I'm surprised you didn't hang yourself last night after Proctor walked in the winning run....again. But hang in there with your parody writing. I see on the parody authors page you are staying above the parody Mendoza line....just ahead of a Japanese kid and some green blooded hound dogs. After I give them both about 3,000 fives, though, your average will be right where the Yankees are headed. Straight to the cellar.

Hang myself? No, shoot Proctor! The "tow best teams"? The Red Sox and Mets will NEED a tow to get to the end of the regular season. Bob, I resent your implication that the Yankees are like the Republicans. But your memory is fantastic. I once went to a Yankee game after the Mets traded Sisk to Baltimore. The Orioles were leading, but the Yanks loaded the bases, and Sisk came in, and I called the shot: Grand slam. The Yanks won on it, and what might have been the slugger's name? Jay Buhner. Well, if we hadn't traded him, we never would've gotten Paul O'Neill and started the dynasty. Someone want to explain to Pa what a "dynasty" is?

Yankee fan, shouldn't you be working on another Lightfoot parody try" Twenty six tries and still haven't got it right yet" Kind of like the pitiful bunch of losers in the Bronx who have been paid a BILLION dollars the last six years and can't even make it to the Series, much less win one. First round losers, and the old cellar awaits. Tampa Bay is gonna cream your pitiful butts and leave you in last place sulking and screaming for mommy, who will be at the Series rooting for her Mets.

Michael - sorry you didn't get my second comment - it was up for a little while and then, obviously censored. Apparently - ahole - is not permitted. People need to get a life.
