lyrics

'baby please don't come to the game'
is what i might say before any other game
but tonight we've got the chance of a season
to deliver a bruising

i've got a long list of foes when i train
and it goes about sixteen coaches long
when that old whistle blows
heaven knows they'll be playing our song

oh now, baby, you still make me the brave me
you wiped the shit off of my D-I-C-E
and scooped creatine into my poutine's gravy
is it true that your new sweetheart looks just like me?

we loved each other a long time ago
and we dance like nothing's changed
last week i seen your mama
at the driving range

and i felt me those butterflies within;
i'm not at my best in the way i've been livin'
i miss your parents-- hope you'll bring 'em
and that all is forgiven

i'm seeing Nike everything and it gets to my psyche
i ain't no rookie and i know what i likey--
i liked that BUD LITE LIME, but that was back in our prime
one more time come and see me under that limelight

coz tonight we're playing
the worst team in the league
corrina, corrina
step into the arena
tonight we're playing
the worst team in the league
i said i'd call you again
when i believe in myself
