Damned YankeesI could smell the ballpark in my glove
Lose myself in the crooked sky above
Hear the roar of the crowd in my bat
Oblivious to your epitaph called stats
Dreaming a dream, called baseball
But that was all taken from me
From an evil that does not sleep
Forgive me if...

Must think that this winter will never go
After only a few days of spring

Dang YankeesDANG YANKEES
I got a hole in my head
I wish I was dead
Somebody shot a hole in me.

My buddies are all gone
Nothing here I want 'a see.
Yankees are winning
Seems they...

Lyric
I Miss the Winter WeatherBustling corridors, places to go,
you can’t stand still or move too slow.
Make a plan, plot a course,
there’s an entire campus to traverse.
Other things are good to know,
like the best place for lunch
or where the wi-fi’s slow.
Last year there was lots of...
