He was happy to be home
My friend, he liked when I
shined up his little head
Little white, well, little white ball
Looked dirty from the soil on that
f***in' head of ours
We talked a little bit about
philosophy
Cassidous,
Plato,
Aristotle, he knew them all
For a cork brain he wasn't too slow on
the draw if you know what I mean
And that bat, that didn't hit him too hard,
he had all those rubber binders inside.
He was a good ball, best ball I ever had.
One time he wanted to be a softball, I said,
though, you look like a swollen baseball.
He got rid of that idea.
He liked
Juice
Newton, I don't know why.
I used to play him a lot of
Juice
