The Lyrics

I've always been pretty good at most sports...but not Golf...putting is usually pretty good but the rest of my game...P.U.

Who knows how long I've played golf
Blown putts; I've had my fill
If I practiced all my free time
It would not help me - no skill

My fairway game's pathetic
my iron shots the same
my self-confidence; in tatters
Lack of talent is to blame

Duffer forever, good score; never
Miss lots of three-foot putts
Chip shots don't get there, birdies; quite rare
Flubbed shots just drive me nuts

I think it's time I realized
That at this game I stink
Swing is lousy; that's apparent
Every drive I hit is errant
You would think it would be clear now to me
that I have no skill
No skill

I know exactly what you mean, Paul - but then, I'm like that with most ball games, not just golf :-)

maybe golf ain't your game, but you make up for it with parody writing skill...5s

Thanks, guys. This does kind of sum of my golf game in a nutshell - sounds like I've got some good company in that regard.

Well done, Paul. The game does drive a lot of people nuts. And, from one who has seen you play golf, I think the primary reason that you have not yet mastered golf might be more a lack of lessons or practice than skill.

Thanks for the kind words, JJ...well I would almost certainly be better if I played more than every three or four years. Once you get out of the habit of playing very often it seems difficult to fit a round into ones schedule...and once you start doing that it's pretty hard to have any kind of consistency at this game.

never blame lack of talent if there are other options, and in golf there are plenty - liked it but, oddly for a Beatles song, I DKTO - 555

Stuart, thanks, the OS is a really sweet, pretty song. On the White Album, I believe.
