Hey, Triple A! Take My Ollie Away! (Song Parody Part Deux)

It's time for another Studious Metsimus song parody! This is another one based on Señor Sabor himself, Oliver Perez. (Special thanks to Coop for thinking of that awesome nickname for Ollie. Please click here for her amazing Mets blog.) With any luck, this song parody will hit a Homer in the mind of my SMFs (D'oh!)

Sometimes a little minor league seasoning is best for some pitchers when they're not performing at the major league level. If Oliver Perez does not return from his season-ending surgery to perform well in 2010, he should be sent to Triple-A Buffalo until he can get his "sabor" back.

With that in mind, I dedicate this song to the Buffalo Bisons. I'm sorry that I'm trying to make this your problem, but hopefully it will only be temporary. This song is based on the Ramones song from their 1981 album, "Pleasant Dreams". The original classic was called "The KKK Took My Baby Away". My plea to Buffalo to take Ollie off our hands is called "Hey, Triple-A! Take My Ollie Away!":

He went away for the holidays
Season ending surgery
Hoping he'll get better
How can it get worse?
How can it get worse? You'll see-ee.

He went away for the holidays
Season ending surgery
Hoping he'll get better
How can it get worse?
How can it get worse? You'll see-ee.

Hey, Triple-A! Take my Ollie away!
Please take him away
From our Citi-i.
Hey, Triple-A! Take my Ollie away!
Please take him away
From our Citi.

Please! Go!
Please! Go!

Now I sure know
Why they're taking Ollie-ie.
Taking him from me
After surgery-y.

I sure know
Why they're taking Ollie-ie.
Taking him from me
After surgery.

Bring me, bring me, bring me
The private jet
Fly out with Ollie Pere-ez.
Bring me, bring me, bring me
His '90 Hyundai
And send him on a lo-ong dri-ive.

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Send him to Buffalo!
Send him to Buffalo!

He went away for the holidays
Season ending surgery
Hoping he'll get better
How can it get worse?
How can it get worse? You'll see-ee.

He went away for the holidays
Season ending surgery
Hoping he'll get better
How can it get worse?
How can it get worse? You'll see-ee.

Hey, Triple-A! Take my Ollie away!
Please take him away
From our Citi-i.
Hey, Triple-A! Take my Ollie away!
Please take him away
From our Citi.

Hey, Triple-A! Take my Ollie away!
Please take him away
From our Citi-i.
Hey, Triple-A! Take my Ollie away!
Before I hurl
Please take my Ollie away!
