You Took Advantage Of Me
Im a sentimental sap, thats all
Whats the use of trying not to fall?
I have no will, youve made your kill
cause you took advantage of me!
Im just like an apple on a bough
And youre gonna shake me down somehow
So, whats the use,
Youve cooked my goose
cause you took advantage of me!
Im so hot and bothered that I dont
Know my elbow from my ear
I suffer something awful each time you go
And much worse when youre near
Here I am with all my bridges burned
Just a babe in arms where
Youre concerned
So lock the doors and call me yours
cause you took advantage of me.

If I'd been able to put the collection together in one go, say over two years, we'd have had a special team, most wouldn't stay. One or two glory seasons and they were off. To them, the north-east was too far out. They wanted to be with the big hitters.

Most of the managers are lifetime .220 hitters. For years pitchers have been getting these managers out 75% of the time and that's why they don't like us.

I've worked with a lot of real heavy hitters, and Quentin is maybe heads and shoulders, at least a forehead, above just about anybody I've ever worked with.

Why am I so?
I am impartial where I perceive
No advantage from espousing either side
I am honest where I perceive
No advantage for being otherwise,
