20: "Talkin' Softball"
Terry Cashman
Well, Mr Burns had done it
The power plant had won it
With Roger Clemens clucking all the while
Mike Scioscia's tragic illness made us smile
While Wade Boggs lay unconscious on the barroom tile
We're talkin' softball
From Maine to San Diego
Talkin' softball
Mattingly and Conseco
Ken Griffey's grotesquely swollen jaw
Steve Sax and his runin with the law
We're talkin' Homer...
Ozzie, and the Straw
We're talkin' softball
From Maine to San Diego
Talkin' softball
Mattingly and Conseco
Ken Griffey's grotesquely swollen jaw
Steve Sax and his runin with the law
We're talkin' Homer...
Ozzie, and the Straw
Sung by Terry Cashman (to the tune of "Talkin' Baseball") after the Springfield Power Plant softball team won the championship, the song tells of what happens to the team ringers. Homer Simpson was at the bat, allowing the final and winning run to be scored. Unfortunately, he was knocked out by it.
8F13 - Homer at the Bat
The power plant had won it
With Roger Clemens clucking all the while
Mike Scioscia's tragic illness made us smile
While Wade Boggs lay unconscious on the barroom tile
We're talkin' softball
From Maine to San Diego
Talkin' softball
Mattingly and Conseco
Ken Griffey's grotesquely swollen jaw
Steve Sax and his runin with the law
We're talkin' Homer...
Ozzie, and the Straw
We're talkin' softball
From Maine to San Diego
Talkin' softball
Mattingly and Conseco
Ken Griffey's grotesquely swollen jaw
Steve Sax and his runin with the law
We're talkin' Homer...
Ozzie, and the Straw
