R.A. Dickey-o's first hit song, "Knuckla's Paradise"
As I walk through the tunnel to go pitch for the Mets
I take a look at this team, and realize it's a mess
As a journeyman pitcher, I found a place to belong
Even though even my doctor says my ulnar ligament is gone.
But I ain't ever walked a man who didn't deserve it
Knucklerballer with control, you know that's unheard of
You better watch how you be talkin'
You won't be walkin'
And you and your homies ain't gonna make me balk
Excuse me for laughing, cause it's not a joke
They strike out swinging, cause I pulled the rope
Fool, I'm the type of G all the little Dickheads wanna be like
On the mound, every night
Throwing strike after strike
Throw fastballs once or twice, livin' in a knuckla's paradise
Buy Dickey merchandise, livin' in a knuckla's paradise
Throw fastballs once or twice, livin' in a knuckla's paradise
Buy Dickey merchandise, livin' in a knuckla's paradise
Look at this rotation, they got me facin'
But I'm gonna take a hack; I am good with the bat
Gotta do it all for this damn team
Being R.A. Dickey is harder than it seem
I'm an educated dude with pitchin' on my mind
Knuckleball in my hand, and a gleam in my eye
Catcher's mitt locked in, strike comin' at'cha
All my pitches are down, so don't arouse my anger, fool
A hit ain't nothin' but a damn swing away
Knucklers life live do or do, what can I say?
I'm 35, with an ERA that is under three
Can I do it again, yeah, I think so.
[CHORUS]
Winning helps the clubhouse, the clubhouse likes the winning
Batter after batter, inning after inning
Everybody's K'ing, and half of them are looking
Hey- what's goin' on in the kitchen?
What is big Mike Pelfrey cookin'?
They say I'm gonna lose, but
ain't nobody beat me
They don't understand that I'm R.A. Dickey
I throw strike one
I throw strike two
I throw strike three
Have fun walking back to the dugout, fool.
[CHORUS]
