The Lyrics
I dedicate this parody to local radio personality Mike Trivisano (WTAM 1100, 3pm-7pm), who says that the best way to see Cleveland is in the rear view mirror.
The Cavaliers can't win a game
And the Browns just give us shame
While we sit there and freeze in the rain
The Indians I also hate
While they strike out at home plate
Yet for years I have watched them in vain
And oh, will we ever know, what we are!
I live in Cleveland, a stupid city
I live in Cleveland, a stupid city
This is a place where only retards will go
This is a world that I wish I did not know
At the shore of Lake Erie
The waterfront stands all empty
As our steels mills, unused, rust away
But our mayor has a plan
Like the great "Adopt a Can"
To keep the Liberal city council in play
But oh, will we ever know, what we have!
I live in Cleveland, a stupid city
I live in Cleveland, a stupid city
This is a place where only retards will go
This is a world that I wish I did not know
They laid off half the police force
And now there's hardly any stores
And the people keep moving away
Mike Trivisano on the air
Says that he no longer cares
I wonder how long I will stay
"The Grass is Greener", or so they say
Cleveland Sucks, Cleveland Sucks, Cleveland Sucks,
Cleveland sucks sucks sucks sucks sucks sucks
Cleveland Sucks, Cleveland Sucks, The armpit of the world
And the Browns just give us shame
While we sit there and freeze in the rain
The Indians I also hate
While they strike out at home plate
Yet for years I have watched them in vain
And oh, will we ever know, what we are!
I live in Cleveland, a stupid city
I live in Cleveland, a stupid city
This is a place where only retards will go
This is a world that I wish I did not know
At the shore of Lake Erie
The waterfront stands all empty
As our steels mills, unused, rust away
But our mayor has a plan
Like the great "Adopt a Can"
To keep the Liberal city council in play
But oh, will we ever know, what we have!
I live in Cleveland, a stupid city
I live in Cleveland, a stupid city
This is a place where only retards will go
This is a world that I wish I did not know
They laid off half the police force
And now there's hardly any stores
And the people keep moving away
Mike Trivisano on the air
Says that he no longer cares
I wonder how long I will stay
"The Grass is Greener", or so they say
Cleveland Sucks, Cleveland Sucks, Cleveland Sucks,
Cleveland sucks sucks sucks sucks sucks sucks
Cleveland Sucks, Cleveland Sucks, The armpit of the world

You think Cleveland is a stupid city? Wait until you check out Eugene, Oregon. The place is overrun by bratty college students, senile people driving Hummers and talking on their cells, hippies who would look much better if I forcibly shaved their entire bodies and pressure-washed them and environmentalist radicals who clog up the roads with their stupid bicycles. Good thing I don't live there anymore!
