Lyrics[edit]
- Well, Mr. Burns had done it,
- The Power Plant had won it,
- With Roger Clemens clucking all the while,
- Mike Scioscia's tragic illness made us smile,
- While Wade Boggs lay unconscious on the bar-room tile.
- We're talkin' softball,
- From Maine to San Diego,
- Talkin' softball,
- Mattingly and Canseco,
- Ken Griffey's grotesquely swollen jaw,
- Steve Sax and his run-in with the law,
- We're talkin' Homer,
- Ozzie and the Straw.
- We're talkin' softball,
- From Maine to San Diego,
- Talkin' softball,
- Mattingly and Canseco,
- Ken Griffey's grotesquely swollen jaw,
- Steve Sax and his run-in with the law,
- We're talkin' Homer,
- Ozzie and the Straw.
Behind the Laughter[edit]
