Wish You Were Here
(The Pats-heavy, but occasionally general, FA/Draft/Trade Lament)
So, So you think you can tell
Portis from Bell (from Bell,)
Red jersies from pain,
Can you tell a turf field
from a gold-plated deal? A bust from a steal?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade
your hero for Gots,
Tom Ashworth for free,
McNair, and Drew Brees,
Bethel for belly lox?
Did you exchange a first-day pick in the draft,
for an eight man in the box?
How I wish, How I wish you were here [sic]
We're just doom and gloom sittin' in our war room
year after year
Runnin over the same old names, for just the same, the same old cheers
Wish you were here
carried away,
