CHORUS

 

SOME BELIEVE THE CURSE OF THE BAMBINO’S THROUGH

 THE SOCKS IN THE SOX WILL TURN BLACK AND BLUE

THE CURSE OF THE BAMBINO IS BACK ON THE ATTACK

THE BABE AND YANKS WILL HANG THE SOX ON THE RACK

THE CURSE OF THE BAMBINO IS BACK!

 

WILL THE BABE APPEAR AT OUR SEANCE TONIGHT?

THIS WAS OUR WISH AS WE HELD OUR HANDS TIGHT

IN A MOMENT THE BABE’S GHOSTLY FORM CAME

THE BABE HAD THE LOOK OF A CHILD IN SHAME

 

HIS VOICE CHOKED AND WE FELT HE WOULD CRY

HE GATHERED HIMSELF AND SAID WITH A SIGH

I DIDN’T GO TO THE GAMES AT THE HOUSE I BUILT

MY DEAR YANKEE FANS I FEEL A GREAT GUILT

 

REPEAT CHORUS

 

I LAUGHED WHEN THE YANKEES WENT THREE UP

CELEBRATING EARLY I TOOK MORE THAN A CUP

SURE THE SOX CAME BACK TO WIN THE NEXT TWO

BUT LOSING BIG IS WHAT THE SOX ALWAYS DO

 

I WEAVED OVER TO THE SOX DUGOUT FOR A LARK

I SNOOZED OFF THEN WOKE SMILING IN THE DARK

WHY NOT LIFT THE CURSE AND SEE WHAT THEY DO

I NEVER BELIEVED MY YANKS WOULD LOSE TWO!

 

I FELT PITY FOR THE SOX WHAT A MISTAKE

I GAVE THAT BAND OF IDIOTS A BIG BREAK!

IT’S PAINFUL TO SEE ALL THE TEARS IN YOUR EYES

I PROMISE TO BRING YOU BASEBALL’S BIGGEST PRIZE! 

 

 Repeat chorus two times and fade.
