The Leafs Number Fourteen (To The Tune Of Mambo Number 5) Poem by Richard Wlodarski

The Leafs Number Fourteen (To The Tune Of Mambo Number 5)

Rating: 5.0

Ladies and gentlemen, this is The Leafs number fourteen
One, two, three, four, five, everybody on the ice
So come on, let's ride to The Stanley Cup around the corner
The Leafs say they want some spunk and juice
But we really don't wanna bust like for 56 years
We must stay deep because talk is cheap
We like Matthews, Bertuzzi and Tie's son Max Domi
And as they continue, you know they're getting better
So what can we do, we really beg you Lord
To us it's winning, it's just like sport, anything flies
It's all good, let us dump The Bruins, set in the trumpet

A little bit of Nylander in their life, a little bit of Matthew Knies by his side
A little bit of Matthews is all we need, a little bit of Marner is what we see
A little bit of Tavares in the sun, a little bit of McMann all night long
A little bit of Samsonov here he is
A little bit of him makes him your man

The Leafs number fourteen

Jump up and down and move it all around
Shake your head to the sound, put your hand on the ground
Take one step left and one step right
One to the front and one to the side
Clap your hands once and clap your hands twice
And if it looks like this, then you are doing it right

A little bit of Nylander in their life, a little bit of Matthew Knies by his side
A little bit of Matthews is all we need, a little bit of Marner is what we see
A little bit of Tavares in the sun, a little bit of McMann all night long
A little bit of Samsonov here he is
A little bit of him makes him your man

Trumpet, the trumpet
The Leafs number fourteen

A little bit of Edmunson in their life, a little bit of Timothy by his side
A little bit of Benoit is all we need, a little bit of Rielly is what we see
A little bit of Robertson in the sun, a little bit of Calle all night long
A little bit of Joseph Woll here he is
A little bit of him makes him your man

I do all to fall in love with a team like you
‘Cause you can't run and you can't hide
The Leafs are gonna touch the sky
The Leafs number fourteen

God bless the eternal optimists! I loved the rhythm of this poem. Kept going back to the original though (a little bit of Jessica by my side....)
