It’s been
One week since we got to see
Minny earning a win for fans of T.C.
Nine days since the Yankees came,
Playing ruthlessly, taking game after ballgame.
Three days since the day of rest;
We realized we had to play up at our strongest.
Yesterday, we’d a win to show,
And so we’re shouting today to GO TWIM’S and LET’S GO!

Hold it now and stop the dooming
‘Cause our bats are booming;
The power generates sonic waves!
They says it’s luck and we suck, but though they’re here to stop the Buck,
He clobbers homers and in center makes iconic saves!
Hot like a tropical veranda
Jose Miranda will also pummel opponents!
Try swinging versus Woods Rich-
-ardson: a good pitch
Will prompt humiliating moments!
With a Nat at bat, we’ll flatten that
Until they’ve sat and spat a splat;
A sporting thriller; grab a wiener, pass the mustard!
Gonna feel the flow and let it go;
The score will grow, it’s Much to Oh,
A clean majority that can’t be filibustered!

How can we help relieve our tense supporters every day?
We're afraid that we're cursed, but it's okay.
Some are fearing a collapse is immutable,
Drop from the top of the Central to Boot Hill.
But is the pennant really evermore out of reach?
For now, we're focusing on winning this one first

It's been
One week since the sausage flew
With the club on the road among the air crew.
Five days since we whiffed the stench
While players would beat the meat on the bench
It's been ten days since our winning streak
And realizing what we'd lost in a moment too weak.
Yesterday we could crush our foe,
So now we sit back awaiting: GO TWIM'S and LET'S GO!

Setting the lineup, the lineup's tricky,
Bats in the rack and the pine tar's sticky,
Eddy's up first; pitch if you want to
He's très talentueux
And when he smacks the ball it's gone too!
Then Trevor's in left; Correa shortstop,
The Norman Schwarzkopf
Of keeping batted balls from getting by!
Our German hammer's batting cleanup,
And then after seen up
Is Ryan Jeffers; I'm forgetting why.
Gonna fly on by with Byron fast,
Gonna will the thrill with Willi Cast-
-ro hitting seventh, always crushing with his bat swing!
Gonna put our faith in Alex eighth
And feel the wraith (as now I've saith),
And Miranda to finish, chasing that ring!

How can we help believing wins are coming every day?
Unafraid to be cursed 'cause we're okay.
So we're hearing a collapse is immutable?
Rot: we will blot that and vent accrued will!
And there's a pennant that is nevermore out of reach,
But now we're focusing on winning this first.

It's been
One week since we got to see
Frequent winning we now can start in D.C.
Nine days that we've had to stew
In the losingest juice, but now it's done, it's over, through.
Three days here in Washington,
We realize we split the games, and now's the last one.
Yesterday we could start to glow,
So now we’re shouting today to GO TWIM’S and LET’S GO!

Now we’re shouting today to GO TWIM’S and LET’S GO!
Now we’re shouting today to GO TWIM’S and LET’S GO!
(Washington D.C., don't ride the Metro.)
