Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen and welcome to the Dan Brock Memorial Stadium
Are you ready for an afternoon of baseball?
I hope you are
Because it's Geoff Moore and The Distance
Going up against the big guy, the Prince of Darkness(Darkness)
It's been quiet on evolution with Geoff Moore and The Distance
That's why it's brought them to the game today
So I want you to kick back and enjoy a fun-filled afternoon of Baseball(Baseball)
The teams are assembled
Are you ready?

PLAY BALL!!

The lights go on
Another game day
I grabbed my bat
And headed for the plate
But the first pitch was a curve
And I was done!

(umpire) STRIKE ONE!

I stepped out of the box
Looked the pitcher in the eye
You could read his lips
"Hey, punk, you're mine!"
So I gave him a wink and said
"Let's see what you can do"
(umpire) STRIKE TWO!

Gotta keep my eye on the ball
Swing straight and true and follow through
Don't be afraid, what-ever the call!
Because we're never alone
Our coach is there to cheer us on
Well, it's the wind-up
Here comes that ball
You gotta pray and swing
Watch it till, it's goin, goin, it's gone!

Oh, ohho, ohh, oh
Oh, ohho, ohh, oh
Oh, ohho, ohh, we need a home run

Oh, ohho, ohh, oh
Oh, ohho, ohh, oh
Oh, ohho, we need a home run!

You know life can be
Like a baseball game
We're on the same team
But were not all the same
That's why we've got to learn
To play together
I didn't join this team to sit on the bench
I'm goin deep, swingin' for the fence
I got some friends on base, I gotta get home!

Gotta keep your eye on the ball
Swing straight and true, and follow through
Don't be afraid, what-ever the call
Because we're never alone
Our coach is there to cheer us on

Well it's the wind-up
Here comes that ball
You gotta pray and swing
Watch it till it's goin goin, it's gone!

Oh, ohho, ohh, oh
Oh, ohho, ohh, oh
Oh, ohho, ohh, home run!
I want a home run

Ho, ohho, ohh, oh
Ho, ohho, ohh, oh
Ho, ohho, i want a home run!

We are not the first to play this game
Or stand over this plate
We are surrounded by the legacy
I can see them in the stands
I can see them wavin their hands
Sayin, "go, go all the way!"
(umpire) it's goin, it's going it's going
Oh my!
It's outta here!
That baby is gone (gone)

Come on now

Oh, ohho, ohh, oh
Oh, ohho, ohh, oh
Oh, ohho, ohh, home run

Hey it's gone,gone now

Oh, ohho, ohh, oh
Oh, ohho, ohh, oh
Oh, ohho, ohh, home run

Hey it's a homerun

Oh, ohho, ohh, oh
Oh, ohho, ohh, oh
Oh, ohho, ohh, home run
