"Brett Favre" to the tune of "White Lines"
Posted: August 18th, 2010, 10:01 pm
As I was listening to sports radio talk about the return (again) of Brett Favre, on my way from Decatur to Alpharetta, GA, I came up with this song. Was singing the hell out of it today.... (you younger folk likely won't get this Grand Master Flash "inside joke.").
Brett Favre - To the Tune of "White Lines"
Aaah, aaah, aaah, aaah)
Uhraah!
Bass!
(Ooh Brett Favre) Vision dreams of passion
(Blowin’ through my mind) and all the while I think of Brett Favre
(High price) a very strange reaction
(For us to unwind) the more he thinks, the more he do
(Something like a phenomenon) Baby!
(Tellin your body to come along, but Brett Favre throw away)
(Throw! Rock it! Throw!)
Ticket to ride, Brett Favre highway
Tell all da players, they can go his way
Pay his toll, sell his soul
Pound for pound costs more than gold
The longer he stays, the more the league pays
My Brett Favre go a long way
Either down the field or late in da game
With nothin to gain except killin’ your brain
(Quit! Stay! Quit! Stay! Quit! Stay! Quit! Stay!)
(Brett!)
(Ahhh) retire, baby
(Ahhh) Retire, baby!
(Ahhh) Retire, baby!
And don't ever come back! (Brett Favre!)
Rang dang diggedy dang di-dang
Rang dang diggedy dang di-dang
Rang dang diggedy dang di-dang
Diggedy dang di-dang diggedy dang di-dang
(Brett Favre) will never leave the show
(Connected to my mind) and now he's havin’ fun, baby!
(High price) he'll be back fo sho
(Cause it makes you feel so nice) He needs some one-on-one, baby!
(Don't let it blow your mind away) Baby!
(And go into your little hideaway ‘cause Brett Favre throws away)
(Quit! Stay! Quit!)
A million loyal Vikings fans, painted purple and white
A multi-million dollars almost overnight
Twice as sweet as sugar, twice as bitter as salt
And if you get hurt, Brett, it's nobody else's fault, so don't do it!
(Quit! Stay! Quit! Stay! Quit! Stay! Quit! Stay!)
Raah! (Brett!)
(Ahhh) Retire, baby
(Ahhh) Retire, baby!
(Ahhh) Retire, baby!
And don't ever come back! (Brett Favre!)
(Don’t you get too high) don’t you get too high baby!
(Turns you on) you really score some points Brett
('Cause you gotta come down) the odds in Vegas risin'
(When the thrill is gone) no, I don’t want you to go
A Vikes fan gets arrested, gonna pay his dimes
He got out three years from now just to watch you on prime time
A businessman is caught with 24 scalped ticks
He’s out on bail and out of jail
Wants Favre to make his kicks
Raah!
(Brett! Favre! Brett! Favre! Brett!)
Statues were erected, memories ressurected
Linemen, tackles and coaches are thoroughly rejected
The money gets divided
The Vikings get excited
Favre's awoke and it’s no joke
It’s hard as hell to fight it, don’t buy it!
(Ahhh) Retire, baby
(Ahhh) Retire, baby!
(Ahhh) Retire, baby!
And don't ever come back! (Brett Favre!)
Brett Favre vision dreams of passion
(Blowin’ through my mind) and all the while I think of Brett Favre
(High price) a very strange reaction
(For us to unwind) the more he thinks, the more he do
(Something like a phenomenon) Baby!
(Tellin your body to come along, but Brett Favre throw away)
(Throw! Rock it! Throw!)
Well, you get the drift...
