lyrics

as i stand cutting meat at the deli
this boy’s in the war, but the band’s getting ready
two worlds collide
my great divide

an innocent man, never reached the age of reason
and now it’s the fall, it’s the end of the season
and i’m day dreamin’ plottin’ schemin’ a way out
to hello dolly, oh my golly, wipe out

cause this year i’m playing
october baseball
and they said it would be impossible

cause one, i’m a liar
two, i’m a bragger
and this time we could be unstoppable

and we’ll turn your aluminum hearts into gold, into gold
and we’ll turn your aluminum hearts into gold, into gold

cause this year i’m playing
october baseball
and they said it would be impossible

cause one, i’m a liar
two, i’m a bragger
but this time we could be unstoppable

yeah, this time we will be unstoppable

we were the gang that nobody believed in
we swing and we miss, we’re funambulist riders
we were the gang that nobody believed in
hello dolly, oh my golly, wipe out
