Lyrics Batter Up - Chet Baker
Welcome
ladies
and
gentlemen
This
is
Mark,
oh-Who-gives-a-fuck
from
′93
TV
This
is
my
co-host,
Bob
Buttafuoco
(Hey
hey
guys)
Yeah
yeah
yeah
We
got
a
crowd
that's
in
a
frenzy
Bob
Let′s
go
down
to
the
announcers
for
the
start
of
the
game
And
now,
please
rise
for
the
singing
of
our
national
anthem
I
say
the
fish
don't
fry
in
the
kitchen
Beans
don't
burn
on
the
grill
(that′s
right)
It
took
a
whole
lot
of
trying
Just
to
get
up
that
hill
I
said
but
now
we′re
up
in
the
big
leagues
My
dirty
it's
our
turn
at
bat
And
just
as
long
as
we
living,
it′s
Lunatics
player
It
ain't
nothing
wrong
with
that,
batter
up
I′m
the
first
to
swing
Home
run
with
that
give-me-what-you-got
thing,
hot
wings
Fuck
a
dub,
smoke
an
ounce,
show
me
love
Hit
the
club,
me
and
T-Luv
holla
what
I
put
my
mack
down,
she
throw
a
curve
ball
She
owed
Milli
smoked
that
herb
and
some
Llly-bone
She
tip-top
'em,
Optimo
First
base,
god
living
like
a
worst
race
First
chase,
throw
yo′
people
and
yo'
kind
Second
lesson,
smoke
that
herb
and
clear
yo'
mind
It′s
about
time,
second
base
wisdom
rhyme
Sitting
strong,
skipped
third
base
and
headed
home
Third
baseman
just
don′t
understand
baby
what
the
bong
What
the
fuck
wrong,
with
this
world
today
With
these
girls
today,
diamonds
and
pearls
the
way
You
wasn't
fucking
with
me,
leave,
for
the
wrap
that′s
in
my
seed
Now
you
stays
on
yo
knees
cause
we's
be
in
the
big
league
Cause
we′s
be
in
the
big
league
Well
you
should
see
me
now,
I'm
eating
Wheaties
now
I′m
stealing
second
and
third
and
looking
home
peeping
greedy
now
See
me
now,
people
call
me
speedy
now
Known
for
running
the
quickest
miles
Hit
and
run
in
any
town,
any
ground
Rules
'fore
I
hit
it,
split
it,
lick
it
and
quit
it
And
hit
it,
lick
it,
did
I
say
lick
it,
(yeah)
fuck
it,
lick
it
Ain't
no
shame
in
my
game,
that
normal
shit
ain′t
my
thing
If
I
think
with
my
dick
then
put
your
mouth
on
my
brain
I
maintain
through
the
atmosphere,
what
we
got
here
A
sucker
in
fear,
hear
the
roars
and
the
cheers
From
the
crowd
when
I
take
the
mile,
let
me
show
′em
how
Hit
the
ball
on
the
ground
and
make
'em
get
down
Well
this
next
young
batter
on
deck
He′s
still
in
high
school
(yeah
I
heard
that)
(It's
a
great
day
though)
A
good
high
school
out
in
U-City
of
St.
Louis,
Missouri
(I
think
his
name′s
umm,
who
knows,
Murphey
Lee
or
something)
I
want
my
name
not,
not
said
but
screamed
I
went
from
fantasies
to
dreams,
dreams
to
bigger
things
I'm
like
Bennett
I
been
in
it
since,
ninety-three
You
can
tell
cause
my
L
angle
90
degrees
I′ma
sixteen
year-old
school
boy,
platinum
skills
Swear
to
tell
the
real,
the
whole
real
to
make
a
mill'
I
lie
little
but
still,
talk
straight
up
like
motto
I
could
tell
you
something
now,
you
think
twice
about
it
tomorrow
I
promise,
I
gets
deeper
than
file
cabinets
when
rapping
Money,
money,
money,
money
what's
happening
I′m
coming
up
like
family
members
in
basements,
and
I
stay
bent
Make
a
milli
to
play
with,
buy
a
building
you
can
pay
me
And
the
′tic
is
who
I
came
with
You
know
how
we
do,
we
do,
we
do,
we
do,
we
do,
we
do
