H-E-A-L-T-H-Y (the fifth annual Cheese Lament)

(oo) What we want

(oo) Baby, I don’t got

(oo) What we need

(oo) Do you know I don’t got it?

(oo) All I’m askin’

(oo) Is for a few ABs and IPs when you are supposed to play (just a little bit)

Hey baby (just a little bit) when you are supposed to play

(just a little bit) mister ballplayer (just a little bit)

I ain’t gonna bench you while you’re on the mend

Ain’t gonna trade you away (oo) ’cause I believe (oo)

All I’m askin’ (oo)

Is for you to show up and do your job (just a little bit)

Baby (just a little bit) when you are supposed to play (just a little bit)

Yeah (just a little bit)

I’m givin’ you a lot of my money

And all I’m askin’ in return, honey

Is to give me the hittin’

And the pitchin’ (just a, just a, just a, just a)

Yeah baby (just a, just a, just a, just a)

That they said you would (just a little bit)

Yeah (just a little bit)

[short break while we check the free agent list again]

Ooo, your swing (oo)

Sweeter than honey (oo)

And guess what? (oo)

So is my money (oo)

All I want you to do (oo) for me

Is to get some hits when you get up to bat (hit, hit, hit, hit)

Yeah baby (pitch, pitch, pitch, pitch)

WHIP and ERA (healthy, just a little bit)

When you get on the mound, now (just a little bit)

H-E-A-L-T-H-Y

You can do it if you try

H-E-A-L-T-H-Y

Help the Cheese win, my oh my

Oh (sock it to left, sock it to right,

sock it to center field, don’t matter to me)

A little pitchin’ (strike him out, throw him out,

ground him out, pop him out)

Whoa, babe (just a little bit)

A little health (just a little bit)

I get tired (just a little bit)

of waitin’ on you (just a little bit)

You’re still on the DL (just a little bit)

Or stuck in the minors (just a little bit)

(re, re, re, re) hab

takes way too long (re, re, re, hab)

Or you might walk in (healthy, just a little bit)

And find yourself DFA’d (just a little bit)

The Cheese got to have (just a little bit)

A little health (just a little bit)
