lirik lagu fishboy – ex-pitcher
[verse 1]
in 1988
i was a baseball great
about to break
the all-time pitching record
of the day
most no-hitters played
i would cement my fate
as a no-no hall of famer
sad to say
i let it slip away
because i hate the wave
[chorus]
you disrespect the game
and everyone who plays
if you partic-p-te
[verse 2]
it was the 8th of june
and on that afternoon
i pitched a perfect tune
until the bottom 9th
after the second out
the wave came crashing down
from the pitcher’s mound
i pitched a ball into the batter’s
arm with rage
i couldn’t concentrate
because i hate the wave
[verse 3]
and on this awful day
it starts to rain
the dugout empties
of all teammates
they curse and claim
i won’t get away
i try and run
but i can’t escape
then my arm it breaks
bone separates
and tears of pain
stream down my face
as i curse the wave
for the gifts it gave
on this final day
i ever play
the game
[verse 4]
and now i’m old and gray
i’m sixty-eight
things are going great
because i still get paid
from my endors-m-nt deal
of a stainless steel toaster over
with seal of approval upon it, engraved
[chorus]
they gave it a name
of which i have learned to embrace:
they call it the wave
they are calling it the wave
