The Dodger Dunces
Come and listen to a story about a man named Ned
Assistant GM, barely a thought in his head
Then one day by the Dodgers he was wooed
And soon he moved south, plumb full of gratitude
GM of the Dodgers, he is. Head honcho. The Big Cheese.
Well, first thing you know ole Ned’s full o’ hot air
Grady called and said, “Ned, we’d make quite a pair!”
Said “Californy is the place I oughta be.”
So he finally pulled Pedro and headed toward the sea.
Chavez Ravine, that is. Traffic jams, pitcher’s park.
Well, now it’s time to say goodbye to Ned and all his kin
And they would like to thank you folks for kindly droppin’ in
You’re all invited back again to this locality
Just don’t leave the park when the score’s tied at three
In the bottom of the 7th, no less. Sit a spell. Try and stay for a full nine innings.
