Phanatic
I've got to say this from the start
Hate me though, you may!
I'm from Philly, born and raised
To God and sports we pray!
When I was just a little girl
The Phillies beat them all
I wanted to marry Michael Schmidt
Sure we would have a ball!
I worked so very hard at school
To earn a bunch of A's
Because the Philly paper gave
Free tickets out as praise!
And as I grew my team has had
Its share of downs and ups
But win or lose, I like tight pants
And cold beer in my cups!
My mother was a Phillies fan
And I find it oh so fitting
That the last time they were World Champs
We at her wake were sitting.
