A Room Full Of Deranged Red Sox Fans
The Lyrics
Nine guys have told the story of the ending of the Curse
We have bashed the Yankee pitchers as they went from bad to worse
We have goosed their hanging sliders as the Yankee bubble burst
These Sox are movin' on
Chorus
Glory, glory Massachusetts
Even A-Rod couldn't screw us
Yanks are dead here comes St. Louis
These Sox are movin'on
We start with mighty Damon through Ramirez and Ortiz
We got Pedro And Curt Schilling and we score runs as we please
Now the hated Yanks have fallen, look there's A-Rod on his knees
In truth he's just A-Fraud
2nd Chorus
Sorry, George the Yanks were brutal
All your money men were futile
A-Rod's our new Yankee Doodle
In truth he's just A-Fraud
I have seen him circle pop-ups like a vulture circles prey
They have bood him 'cause he cannot hit the curve low and away
And when it comes to fighting I'll take Varitek all day
He stuck one in his craw
Repeat 1st Chorus
George had opened up his wallet for the patsies at our feet
He's still looking for their heart now that they've gone down to defeat
Oh, it took awhile but waiting made the victory so sweet
And A-Rod's going home
Repeat 2nd Chorus
They took out Brown, put in Vasquez but Damon took him deep
The once proud mighty Yankees sit in silence as they weep
We kiss our girlfriends on the strikes, they kiss us on the (Bleep)
These Sox just have a ball
Goin', goin' to St. Louis
Yes, the fans will prob-ly boo us
We'll come back to Massachusetts
As Champions of the world
We have bashed the Yankee pitchers as they went from bad to worse
We have goosed their hanging sliders as the Yankee bubble burst
These Sox are movin' on
Chorus
Glory, glory Massachusetts
Even A-Rod couldn't screw us
Yanks are dead here comes St. Louis
These Sox are movin'on
We start with mighty Damon through Ramirez and Ortiz
We got Pedro And Curt Schilling and we score runs as we please
Now the hated Yanks have fallen, look there's A-Rod on his knees
In truth he's just A-Fraud
2nd Chorus
Sorry, George the Yanks were brutal
All your money men were futile
A-Rod's our new Yankee Doodle
In truth he's just A-Fraud
I have seen him circle pop-ups like a vulture circles prey
They have bood him 'cause he cannot hit the curve low and away
And when it comes to fighting I'll take Varitek all day
He stuck one in his craw
Repeat 1st Chorus
George had opened up his wallet for the patsies at our feet
He's still looking for their heart now that they've gone down to defeat
Oh, it took awhile but waiting made the victory so sweet
And A-Rod's going home
Repeat 2nd Chorus
They took out Brown, put in Vasquez but Damon took him deep
The once proud mighty Yankees sit in silence as they weep
We kiss our girlfriends on the strikes, they kiss us on the (Bleep)

Goin', goin' to St. Louis
Yes, the fans will prob-ly boo us
We'll come back to Massachusetts
As Champions of the world

Congrats for one of the best anti-Yankees parodies yet, IMO.
Well, I see someone gave you two pitches down in the dirt, but like the Yanks or not, this parody deserves better. I'm sure that Damon will acquire (in NY) the same knickname given to Dent and Buckner.
555 ....Great line..."I have seen him circle pop-ups like a vulture circles prey...LMFAO...clever use of the old Dizzy Dean blurb that got him fired from NBC.."HE KISSES HER ON THE STRIKES...SHE KISSES HIM ON THE BALLS"...What John Barry said. This should be a hit in Boston
GO SOX!
Oh come on, this is silly. Obviously, the curse isn't dead until they win the Series 5 years in a row and Ted Williams' cryogenically preserved body is rescusitated in time to win Game 7 of the 2009 Series. But that aside, this is a fine parody.
I don't think I'd want to get close to a room full of deranged Red Sox fans, but I've got to give them credit for writing a clever parody. These fans are no idiots.
I've been in a room full of deranged Red Sox fans. The date was July 30, 1999. The room was Fenway Park. Chuck Knoblauch hit the second pitch of the game off Mark Portugal over the Green Monster. Derek Jeter hit the fifth pitch of the game to dead center. Two batters later, Portugal threw and literally fell off the mound. The Yankees won 13-3 as Hideki Irabu -- yes, Hideki I-rob-you -- went the distance. I not only won, I got out of Fenway (and New England) alive. But I was so much happier then. I'm bitter than that now.
Michael, your back pages are showing =)
I don't like the Red Sox but this almost convinces me to cheer for them! 555!
