The Lyrics
Autobiographical parody
Give me a beer and find the watch for me
Give me a sub-seven time
I just drank eight beers and I puked in a dumpster
But now I'm ready for nine
My mother, my father, my wife and my friends
You've seen them laugh in my face
But I've got a Beast Light, and I just won't care
After I finish the case!
I'll wait in long lines, for expensive fries
Screaming out cheers like an a-hole
If it takes all that to be just who I am
Well, I'm gonna be a Terrapin fan
Now two plus seven, is half of sixteen
So you just stand up and lean
Hope he makes the catch, so I can spell out Ex-Lax
It make the team go
I'll wait in long lines, for expensive fries
Screaming out cheers like an a-hole
If it takes all that to be just who I am
Well, I'm gonna be a Terrapin fan
Keeping our sights on a New Years Bowl
Where happiness is just a few wins away
North Illinois, even worse than I heard it was
I closed my eyes and maybe it would go away
I'll wait in long lines, for expensive fries
Screaming out cheers like an a-hole
If it takes all that to be just who I am
Well, I'm gonna be a Terrapin fan
Give me a sub-seven time
I just drank eight beers and I puked in a dumpster
But now I'm ready for nine
My mother, my father, my wife and my friends
You've seen them laugh in my face
But I've got a Beast Light, and I just won't care
After I finish the case!
I'll wait in long lines, for expensive fries
Screaming out cheers like an a-hole
If it takes all that to be just who I am
Well, I'm gonna be a Terrapin fan
Now two plus seven, is half of sixteen
So you just stand up and lean
Hope he makes the catch, so I can spell out Ex-Lax
It make the team go
I'll wait in long lines, for expensive fries
Screaming out cheers like an a-hole
If it takes all that to be just who I am
Well, I'm gonna be a Terrapin fan
Keeping our sights on a New Years Bowl
Where happiness is just a few wins away
North Illinois, even worse than I heard it was
I closed my eyes and maybe it would go away
I'll wait in long lines, for expensive fries
Screaming out cheers like an a-hole
If it takes all that to be just who I am
Well, I'm gonna be a Terrapin fan

"Screaming out cheers like an a-hole" is hilarious; great job.
Flordia State -15
Good work Jeff!
I hope the Terps win Saturday. If N.C. State can beat the Crimenoles two years in a row, why can't Maryland beat 'em at the Talley (as in Tallahassee,FL)?
"Well, I'm already a Jeff Reuben fan." By the way, what the hell's a terrapin ("terp"), anyway? Anything like a tarpaulin ("tarp")?
A turtle! A big, mean, angry, growling turtle! Fear the Turtle!
Hmm...I think tarpaulins are scarier. 'Cause, like, you could suffocate under one. Or if it blew off in a storm, all your stuff would get wet.
What's scarier? A Terp or a Billiken (like in St. Louis University Billikens)?
Radical Jeff , I bet your one of those face painter dudes. nothing wrong with supporting the home team .555 Chalupas.
