Lyrics

We may not have a show yet, but that doesn't mean we can't have quick turnaround jingles....

Buh-bye Pap!

He's Leaving Here [She's Leaving Home]

Saturday PM at four o'clock ‘fore the game begins
Silently closing the clubhouse door
Leaving the ball club that wants him no more
He thinks back on good times as a Nat, like choking the MVP
Or quietly crushing Drew Storen’s chi
Or rare times with an ERA under three

He (he gave us all heart attacks)
Is leaving (Melancon has what he lacks)
Here (Nats wasted all kinds of money on this guy)
He's leaving town since his stats are way down
Such a lousy year (Bye bye)

    This is better than a turnaround, since I found out the Strangler was off the team HERE! Such a good story to lose - imagine if Dwight Howard retired? I shudder at the thought.
