The Lyrics
This was originally done by Porfle Popnecker, but I have a somewhat different take on this that is closer to the theme of the OS. In my take, a mediocre offensive guard for the Cleveland Browns named Wally Parton is begging Joe Greene to go easy on him
Joe Greene, Joe Greene, Joe Greene, JOE GREENE
I'm begging you don't slam down my QB
Joe Greene, Joe Greene, Joe Greene, JOE GREENE
If you do, they're gonna cast the blame on me
Your head slap makes my eardrum sore
Your forearm shiv's the fist of Thor
With brutish strength and attitude of mean
Your legs are like a coiled spring
Untold havoc you will bring
And I cannot protect from you
Joe Greene
Joe Greene, Joe Greene, Joe Greene, JOE GREENE
For the love of God, don't smash my QB down
Joe Greene, Joe Greene, Joe Greene, JOE GREENE
If you do, I know they'll run me out of town
You're haunting all my dreams at night
And then I wake and shriek with fright
From thinking how you'll humble me
Joe Greene
Your A-gap* is forbidden zone
They say you're better than Deacon Jones
You don't need me to make your bones
Joe Greene
Joe Greene, Joe Greene, Joe Greene, JOE GREENE
I'm begging you, don't make me look a fool
Joe Greene, Joe Greene, Joe Greene, JOE GREENE
If you do, they're gonna taunt my kids in school
Your fearsome game is world renowned
While I was picked in 19th round
So please don't smash me to the ground,
Joe Greene
I hope you'll mind my sniveling plea
And not direct your wrath at me
And treat me with some sympathy
Joe Greene
Joe Greene, Joe Greene, Joe Greene, JOE GREENE
I'm begging you, don't sack my QB down
Joe Greene, Joe Greene, Joe Greene, JOE GREENE
For the love of God, we're just the Cleveland Browns
I'm begging you don't slam down my QB
Joe Greene, Joe Greene, Joe Greene, JOE GREENE
If you do, they're gonna cast the blame on me
Your head slap makes my eardrum sore
Your forearm shiv's the fist of Thor
With brutish strength and attitude of mean
Your legs are like a coiled spring
Untold havoc you will bring
And I cannot protect from you
Joe Greene
Joe Greene, Joe Greene, Joe Greene, JOE GREENE
For the love of God, don't smash my QB down
Joe Greene, Joe Greene, Joe Greene, JOE GREENE
If you do, I know they'll run me out of town
You're haunting all my dreams at night
And then I wake and shriek with fright
From thinking how you'll humble me
Joe Greene
Your A-gap* is forbidden zone
They say you're better than Deacon Jones
You don't need me to make your bones
Joe Greene
Joe Greene, Joe Greene, Joe Greene, JOE GREENE
I'm begging you, don't make me look a fool
Joe Greene, Joe Greene, Joe Greene, JOE GREENE
If you do, they're gonna taunt my kids in school
Your fearsome game is world renowned
While I was picked in 19th round
So please don't smash me to the ground,
Joe Greene
I hope you'll mind my sniveling plea
And not direct your wrath at me
And treat me with some sympathy
Joe Greene
Joe Greene, Joe Greene, Joe Greene, JOE GREENE
I'm begging you, don't sack my QB down
Joe Greene, Joe Greene, Joe Greene, JOE GREENE
For the love of God, we're just the Cleveland Browns
