The Lyrics

For the first time since 1996, no one received enough votes for enshrinement in baseball's Hall of Fame. This was not due to a lack of qualified candidates. What happened was that enough writers refused to vote for anybody in protest to the presence of admitted and accused performance enhancing drug (P.E.D.) users on the ballot. Thus, many deserving candidates with no connection to drug usage (Craig Biggio, Mike Piazza, Jack Morris, Edgar Martinez, etc.) did not receive the necessary percentage of votes for selection. Unable to agree on what to do about P.E.D. users, the Hall of Fame chose not to decide this issue...much as the federal government is doing with the budget and the debt. ;D

No one this year - goes in Hall of Fame,
And baseball hangs - its head in great shame.
Among the bleaters - are steroid cheaters.
What they have done has dishonored the game.

Sosa and Bonds - and all who have juiced
Now pay the price. Their reps are reduced.
Hey Roger Rocket! What's in your pocket?
Our baseball just won't be the same.

Pity the players - who kept themselves straight.
Protest non-votes - have locked the Hall's gate.
They've been rejected - with those injected.
No new inductees and that's lame.

Hopefully this parody is like the swing of a .300 hitter...short, sweet, and lots of punch. At least there are no current plans to change baseball's motto to "Better Living Through Chemistry". ;D
