With apologies to Lennon-McCartney (but I think we all know Paul wrote this one):
In Bullpenny Lane there is a Kendrick serving sinker balls
That miss the zone or else bounce off the outfield fence
One might have missed the glove of Hunter Pence
It makes no sense
On the corner is a scoreboard flicking rapidly
It used to show the Phillies with a decent lead
But one by one they let late innings bleed
With astounding speed
Bullpenny Lane it hurts my ears and stings my eyes
Balls leaving the park through springtime skies
I sit with less surprise
In Bullpenny Lane there was a Schwimer but he lost his trunks
He’ll have to sharpen up his stuff in triple A
Our Truck is leaking oil every day
Couldn’t Madson stay?
Bullpenny Lane it hurts my ears and stings my eyes
Aces sans decisions, excess why?s
Eighth inning? Close your eyes!
Behind the fence line on the right side of the Phils’ dugout
Rich Dubee’s pacing toward the phone with grim dismay
He knows the game’s a gift-wrapped giveaway
Served up on a tray
In Bullpenny Lane the Sanches keeps his fastball middle-in
Wheels can see this clearly as the replay rolls
The game thread’s slowly filling up with trolls
How I miss the LOLs
Bullpenny lane it hurts my ears and stings my eyes
Balls launched far into the springtime skies
Bullpenny Lane
