...a tribute to the Red Sox, and their
victory in the the 2004 world series...
Never saying die, their courage sorely tested,
they fought so valiantly to win one more;
seemingly defeated, they always battled back
till Damon put the Yankees on the floor.
With scarcely any time to blink or catch their breath,
the Cardiac Kids were destined for St. Lou
to play a franchise known for their ability
to win by stealing bases on you too.
It was never even close to being a contest,
pitching and hitting made the Red Birds crawl.
From Foulke to Millar for the final killing,
the Red Sox are the champions of them all!

seemingly defeated, they always battled back,
then Damon put the Yankees on the floor.
With scarcely any time to blink or even catch their breath,
the Bean Town boys were destined for St. Lou
to play a franchise known for their ability
to hit 'em deep, and steal a base or two.
It was never even close to being a contest,
we clipped their wings and made the Red Birds crawl;
from Foulke to Millar for the final killing,
our RED SOX are the CHAMPIONS of them ALL!

Travelling at the speed of light
Everything blurs together
Forming a rainbow of colours
Around the world
Gone in 60 seconds
Entwined together
In a wicked web we weave
As we enjoy the freedom
Only you can unleash in me
Into the Summer Of 69
Where we played in
The Old School Yard
Time after time
Where we escaped with
The Band On The Run to
The Dark Side Of The Moon
Driving Our Cars
Eating an American Pie
Watching
Chocolate Star fish
When Suddenly
Leaving On A Jet Plane
We found our selves in
November Rain
Looking for
O Sweet Child O Mine
At the Hotel California
We were Livin On A Pray
Waiting for
The Real Slim Shady
Please stand up
Please stand up
As the Devil Went Down To Georgia
On Smoke Over Water
Deep Purple lived in
The House Of The Rising Sun
And Girls Just Want To Have Fun
At Kokomo
Down to Copper Head Road
Van Halen tried to Jump
Steve Millar was the Joker
We all ended up Praising You then
We Will Rock You
