Lyrics

Goodbye, RGIII
That was an unprecedented fall
You're still great at selling sandwiches
But not so good at football

We all hoped it would work
When they gave up 30 picks in a trade
To get the star from Baylor
The one with the trademarked name

And your rookie year you were so great for
Shanahan and his kid
And you turned all your critics
into unbridled optimists

But they finally had to bench you
because you never win
And you might figure it out one day
just not for the Redskins

Hello, RGIII
welcome to the Cleveland Browns
It serves me right for crushing you
now you play for my hometown

And unless you change
well then by week 3 you’ll be hurt
And when you’re cut by Cleveland
man, that’s gonna hurt even worse

And your rookie year you were so great for
Shanahan and his kid
And you turned all your critics
into unbridled optimists

But now you walk in the footsteps
of Tim Couch and Brady Quinn
And you don’t wanna join that hall of shame
then find a way to win

A parody of Elton John, "Candle in the Wind"
