A Met Fan’s Lee Lament [Song]

A Met Fan’s Lee Lament (to the tune of Let It Be)

When I find myself in times of trouble, Buster Olney comes to me,
Bringing news that dooms us, Clifton Lee.

And in my hour of darkness, he is standing right in front of me,
Pitching for the Phillies, Clifton Lee.

Clifton Lee, Clifton Lee, Clifton Lee, Clifton Lee.
Whisper words that doom us, Clifton Lee.

And when the broken-hearted Met fans find that Yankee fans agree,
The Phillies really screwed us, Clifton Lee.

And though the NL East's decided, there's still a chance the Phils will see,
An aging starting pitcher, Clifton Lee.

Clifton Lee, Clifton Lee, Clifton Lee, Clifton Lee.
The Mets will have no answer, Clifton Lee.

And though the Mets seem hopeless, there is still a light that shines on me,
Shine until tomorrow, Dillon Gee.

I wake up to the sound of sports talk, Mike Francesa comes to me,
Speaking words that doom us, Clifton Lee.

Clifton Lee, Clifton Lee, Clifton Lee, yeah Clifton Lee.
The Mets will have no answer, Clifton Lee.

Clifton Lee, Clifton Lee, Clifton Lee, yeah Clifton Lee.
The Mets will have no answer, Clifton Lee.
