the waterboy looks down on him
as he picks up the ball
it's another awful day
it's another awful day
for mike townsend
our prodigal son, our shameful pitcher, mike townsend
and he pitches the ball
in the same way
to the same place
every time, like an asshole
and it's a strong hit to the outfield
and a double for the spies
mike townsend is a disappointment
he's a loser and a total disgrace
mike townsend is a disappointment
mike townsend better end up in flames
yeah
he throws the ball in the air
so that he can catch it and look cool
but he misses catching it on the way down
so he just drops it on the floor
and has to bend down and pick it up again
like nobody just saw him drop it
and then he pitches the ball
in the same way
to the same place
every time, like an asshole
and the batter sees the defeat in his eyes
and there's no strikes, no outs, it's a home run, great job
mike townsend is a disappointment
he's a loser and a total disgrace
mike townsend is a disappointment
mike townsend better end up in flames
yeah
mike townsend is a disappointment
he's a loser and a total disgrace

what's that in our outfield
a squirrel running, will not yield
a squirrel got in through the roof
we thought this place was weatherproofed
we'll take advantage of
this gift from up above
we'll feed them peanuts every night
see (that squirrel)
we need a dugout friend
that squirrel went and bit Townsend
that squirrel's got some attitude
that squirrel made morale renewed
we'll take advantage of
this gift from up above
we'll feed them peanuts every night
see (that squirrel)
what's that in our outfield?
a squirrel running, will not yield
a squirrel got in through the roof
we thought this place was weatherproofed
and using all their might
they climbed to such a height
escaped through the roof in the night
freed (our squirrel)

Blaseball, where to begin?
I mourned our hotdog and I bet yet again
Good game, King Tot with the save
My spite grew for the hellmouths in spades, below
My game, peanuts and shame
T-Cash rising as a phoenix aflame
She's gay, four stars on display
When she proves it, we will have quite a day, I hope
Jaylen's alight! (fuck fuck fuck fuck) She's really on fire! (fuck fuck fuck fuck)
Jaylen's gone away...
She sacrificed herself so we could play
Just please win one more game
Townsend, the loser loves bread
Most Garages just wish he was dead
Ted-dy, blaseball daddy, all the hard rockers
Never falling asleep, oh nooo
My game, peanuts and shame
Malik thinks all of the monarchs are lame
He prays, hopes for a gunblade
"Death to Kings" but not King Tot he's OK, I know
Jaylen's alight! (fuck fuck fuck fuck) She's really on fire! (fuck fuck fuck fuck)
Jaylen's gone away...
She sacrificed herself so we could play
Just please win one more game
Just please win one more game, oh oh
Oh please win one more game...
"we've just gotta make it to the playoffs"

Gwiffin's here
If you need a guy who knows a guy it's
crystal clear
He'll show up late, but there's no escape cuz
Gwiffin's here
Spouting gwisdoms, smoking bad pot
Have no fear
He'll take the fall, he's l ost it all - anyway
He spreads his wings and
Claws his way to second base but
He comes up short like
Everytime he comes up at all
Cabbage man
Does the best he can
Cabbage man
The kids won't understand
Gwiffin's here
Clogging up your podcast feed with
His trademark sneer
Because everything's too loud for our boy
Gwiffy Greer
Will he ever learn how to
Be sincere?
We don't think so but we love him - anyway
He spreads his wings and
Claws his way to second base but
He comes up short like
Everytime he comes up at all
Cabbage man
Does the best he can
Cabbage man
The kids won't understand
On your couch or
On the field he's
He's a real hoot
And we still believe
He spreads his wings and
Claws his way to second base but
He comes up short like
Everytime he comes up at all
Cabbage man
Does the best he can
Cabbage man
The kids won't understand

I’ll never forget Jaylen Hotdogfingers
Whistleblower and the greatest mayor
We’ll never forget 46
She didn’t deserve to go like this
It is open,
The book is open
And All that’s left is an empty heart shaped hot dog.
It is open,
The book is open
And All that’s left is an empty heart shaped hot dog.
She didn’t get to make it to the play offs
She didn’t get to make it to the play offs
we just gotta make it to the playoffs.
we just gotta make it to the playoffs.
It is open,
The garage is open
And All that’s left is an empty heart shaped hot dog.
It is open,
The garage is open
And All that’s left is an empty heart shaped hot dog.
heart shaped hot dog.
heart shaped hot dog.

season three, you emerged
we were asking, "who is she"
and you proved yourself immediately
in your strong arms, you would carry us
and your strong heart, you coulda married us
we can't believe you didn't last the week
tiana cash
you were gone too soon
your memory will linger
but what are we to do?
yeah, you carried all of us
and then you lost it all
so how do we even lift the ball?
tiana cash
you were gone too soon
and now we're left to ask
you got some mighty shoes to fill
and greer might do it, as long as he does not fall ill
there's challenges to try us
but your strong wings, they could have flied us
and we can't believe our pheonix got put out
