looking at him one might think he
was a brawlerhis nose crushed pushed right
thats just a look
reality is it was a mishap he took a hardball off the end of the bat in
the face
I’ll never forget the date.
Whawas the date
February twenty-eighth,
Twothousand.
Why does that stand out in your head
Or maybe it was the twenty-ninth;
was Twothousand a Leap Year?
I wouldnt know
Of course you do.
Because Id lie to you about wha I
don know
You know it takes slightly more
threehundred and sixtyfive days for the Earth to travel around the sun.
Yes
Every four years is a Leap Year.
Yes
But not every four years.
I wouldnt know
If theres a
twentyninth of February Im thrilled I
don hang on itanticipate it If its there
its there I enjoy the extra day
Well, it was either the twenty-eighth
or the twenty-ninth, depending if it was a Leap Year.
I might suggest you drop I’ll never forget the date
Tellya wha Ill get to the bottom of this for you Jesus
What?
Ill get to the bottom of this for you For you
Because I know you wont
maybe that hardball was one too
many blows to his head he was punchy
he remembered his mother
chastising himtelling him to leave the shoeshine man alonenot tease him when
she took him to the barber shop
But hes so dumb Mawso slow Im smarter than he is an Im a boy
Son, as a young man he was a
tremendous fighter, a huge draw whenever he fought, but unfortunately he
took too many shots to the head; he’s punchy now, just punchy.
