Christmas Caroling

(To the tune of “Santa Clause Is Coming Tonight”)

Here comes Teixeira, here comes Teixeira
Right down free agency lane

With bat and glove, he will be here
Riding on the NY trains
Bells are ringing, children singing
All is merry and bright
Hang your pinstripes and say a prayer
Cause Teixeira would be so right

Here comes Teixeira, here comes Teixeira
Swinging on free agency lane

He’s got a strong arm to play first base
For several years to come
Hear those chants, applause and praise
What a beautiful sight
Put on your Yankee hat to cover your head
Because Teixeira would be so right

Here comes Teixeira, here comes Teixeira
Swinging on free agency lane

Cashman doesn’t care what he spends to get him
He obviously has no shame
Steinbrenner knows he can outspend Boston
The figures will be out of sight
He’ll fill Boras’ wallet with Christmas cheer
Cause Teixeira would be so right

Here comes Teixeira, here comes Teixeira
Swinging on free agency lane

He’ll come around when the stadium opens
It’s baseball season again
The switch hitter will outshine all
He can bat left or right
Let’s give thanks to free agency
Cause Teixeira would be so right

Parting points: I don’t care for winter but thought I would get myself in the Christmas spirit. I am a big proponent of signing Mark Teixeira as you can tell. I hope the Yankees outbid the other teams interested. They need the 28 year old.

Song of the day: AFI’s “Miss Murder”.
