Lyrics

Kai Forbath, we hardly knew ye....

19th Nervous Breakdown

You're the kind of ball club whose games are certain dismal, dull affairs
Fans heads in a cloud, talking much too loud, you’d think they’re talkin ‘bout ’85 Bears
Well, it seems to me that you’ve lost far too much in recent years
And though you've tried you just can't hide, you aren’t on par with your peers

You better stop, look around
Here it comes, here it comes, here it comes, here it comes
Here comes this week’s special teams breakdown

Ev’ry year special teamers seem to try
But they still haven’t got it right
Any gains are spoiled when the coverage boys let the punt return take flight
The opponents who have run past you show that your scheme has cracks
And your GM needs to find a way to hire talent and not hacks

You better stop, look around
Here it comes, here it comes, here it comes, here it comes
Here comes this week’s special teams breakdown

Oh, who's to blame?
Guess Kai Forbath won’t kick again
Well, nothing they do it don't seem to work
It only seems to make matters worse
Oh, jeeeez

    Man, the build up in the chorus is great. Love the momentum in this one. A lot of teams wouldn't be questioned for cutting a kicker after week 1, but it somehow seems petty coming from them. I don't even know how, just feels that way.

    Thanks Robert. And, yeah, this organization is a real Superfund site. As terrible as the run up to the season has been, I feel like they might just be mediocre now, Not anything that turns around your thoughts, but no smoking hole like benching RGIII over and over. We know which is more fun to jingle about....And I've been listening to Hot Rocks, so have a few more Stones tunes working in the back of my mind...

    seriously, John, it seems like EVERY SINGLE YEAR this team's special teams stinks on ice! what in THE blue hell is going on? but great jingle. this song perfectly encapsulates this team, minus the QB nonsense. I especially love the feeling of inevitability in the refrain.
