How to Blow a Lead, by The Ray

First up, down seven he needs a walk
He walks you say no sweat it's just a walk
He trots right down the first base line
You want the heater, get the sign
And it gets cracked deep into right
As you look up the ball takes flight
Between the lines of first and third
Your team it begins to lay a turd

Where did I go wrong, we lost again
It was because of a shoddy bullpen
And I would've had Kazmir pitch through the night
And we'd be, laughing on the flight

Let him know he needs some rest
Even though you know he is your best
Try to catch a ball, defense
And offense, how bout insurance?
Lay down a perfect sac bunt now
Even though things are getting loud
And pray to God you hang on
And pray to God you hang on

Where did I go wrong, we lost again
It was because of a shoddy bullpen
And I would've had Kazmir pitch through the night
And we'd be, laughing on the flight

The fans begin to raise their voice
You lower yours and say, "I've got no choice."
Put in Wheeler with a full base load
And pray that hits don't follow
He will do one of two things
He will give hits that tie the game
Or punch them out and gain some fame
And you'll think holy shit, we'll win this game

CHORUS:
Where did I go wrong, we lost again
It was because of a shoddy bullpen
And I would've had Kazmir pitch through the night
And we'd be, laughing on the flight


Fuck.
