The Lyrics

Written in the disastrous baseball season of 2003, when the Red Sox narrowly missed getting into the World Series.This song is undoubtedly the reason they won the World Series in 2004.
Well the sports guy always told me, when I was just a lad
The Red Sox had a curse on them, their luck was very bad
But then you see the Yankees, and you know one thing for sure
The baseball ain't the baseball ain't the baseball anymore

Chorus:
They're paid lots of dough, that's our guy on the mound
If Don Zimmer rushes you, just throw him to the ground
Just piss off New York City with this very catchy song
'Cause baseball ain't been baseball since the Yankees came along

Well when it comes to curses we sure do take the brunt
Last time we won the Series there were doughboys on the front
The Yankees have a Babe Ruth plaque, but what's it mainly for?
The curse of the Bambino is just some crappy lore

Chorus:
They're paid lots of dough, that's our guy on the mound
If Don Zimmer rushes you, just throw him to the ground
Just piss off New York City with this very catchy song
‘Cause baseball ain't been baseball since the Yankees came along

I can't think of a word that rhymes except for maybe “cube”
Jeter made a commercial, we threw things at the tube
“How can you afford all this, I think your really poor
Excepting all those millions paid to be a camera whore”

Chorus:
They're paid lots of dough, that's our guy on the mound
If Don Zimmer rushes you, just throw him to the ground
Just piss off New York City with this very catchy song
‘Cause baseball ain't been baseball since the Yankees came along

Well the game's on the TV, we'll watch it in the bah
We'll cheer for Martinez and we'll cheer for Nomah
Don't let the ball go through your legs and get a higher score
Don't make the pitcher pitch if he can't pitch it anymore

Chorus:
They're paid lots of dough, that's our guy on the mound
If Don Zimmer rushes you, just throw him to the ground
Just piss off New York City with this very catchy song
‘Cause baseball ain't been baseball since the Yankees came along

Let's go to Fenway Park and I'll buy you a beer
Our big break is overdue, it's gonna come this year
We'll give the Yanks a pounding, then we'll show them all the door
Then baseball will be baseball, just like it was before

Chorus(x2):
They're paid lots of dough, that's our guy on the mound
If Don Zimmer rushes you, just throw him to the ground
Just piss off New York City with this very catchy song
‘Cause baseball ain't been baseball since the Yankees came along
