7947. AIN'T NO MORE

AIN'T NO MORE
My great leagues are played out;
some of these players are no longer 
worth spit, yet I stand by this baseline
with a glove in my hand. Spare players 
like me take whatever we can get.
The guy with the bat is a loser; he
can't hit the ball, and the ball can't
hit him, and some tell me they've
tried. 'Beanball Boogie' Lewis, for
one; the guy with the ingrown toenail;
plays with sandals and has glasses an inch
thick. They used to call him 'Phonebook',
because of that. Now none of these dumbass
kids even know what that means, so they
just call him 'Thick'. Yep, as in 'Thick'
used to be quick. Ain't no more.'
