Pass the Football
Lyricist:Leonard Bernstein, B Comden, A Green
Look at me now Four years of college Famous professors Tutoring me
Scholarship kid Everything paid for Food and vacations All of it free
Day that I left Everyone gathered Their cheering still rings in my ears
Ray Wreck rah Rah Wreck Ray Rah Wreck Wreck rah Rah Wreck, Wreck Wreck, we love you
'Cause I could pass that football Like nothin' you have ever seen
Couldn't spell a lick Couldn't do arithmetic One and one made three Thought that dog was C A T
But I could pass that football Like nothin' you have ever seen
Couldn't write my name Couldn't translate 'je vous aime' Never learned to read Mother Goose or Andre Gide
But I could pass that football Like nothin' you have ever seen
Couldn't figure riddles Puzzles made me pout Where the hell was Moses When the lights went out?
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com I couldn't even tell red from green Get those verbs through my bean But I was buddies with the dean Like nothin' you have ever seen
Passed without a fuss English Lit. and Calculus Never had to cram Even passed the bar exam
'Cause I passed that football Like nothin' you have ever seen
Couldn't dance for beans Mashed my girls to smithereens Sometimes blood was spilled Still my card was always filled
'Cause I could pass that football Like nothin' you have ever seen
Then there was the week Albert Einstein came to speak 'Relativity' Guess who introduced him? Me
'Cause I could pass that football Like nothin' you have ever seen
Had no table manners Used to dunk my roll Always drunk the water from the fingerbowl
Though I would not get up for any she The prexy's Mom, age ninety-three Got up and gave her seat to me Like nothin' you did ever see
In our hall of fame There's a statue with my name There we stand, by heck Lincoln, Washington and Wreck
'Cause I could pass that football Like nothin' you have ever, ever seen
