The Cincinnati Fans

I've been a Bengal fan for as long as I remember,
So I'm used to the season being over in November,
I want my team to win it all sometime before I'm old,
And I still believe that one year they'll win the Super Bowl,

I was so excited back when we hired Marvin Lewis,
But he hasn't stopped the mediocre teams from running through us,
And I thought we had an offense right up there with best,
From the looks of things this year it appears that they regressed,

For Cincinnati fans it's the same old situation,
Watching optimism fading into sorrowful frustration,
The Bengals always let us down some time around the fall,
Then we turn our attention to our Reds and baseball,
But before the summer ends we're so far out of contention,
We forget about our Reds as we start again to mention,
The Bengals and the draft and our Super Bowl plans,
If anybody needs their team to win it's the Cincinnati fans,

I'm still a Reds fan cause I'm such a faithful guy,
So I'm used to their season being over by July,
I've done a little yelling and I've done a lot of bitching,
I'm a coach on my couch cause I see that we need pitching,

I was so excited back when we signed Junior Griffey,
And he might have had a chance to set the home run record if he,
Had stayed healthy long enough to play out a full season,
Can we claim a Cincinnati curse that has to be the reason,

For Cincinnati fans it's a neverending cycle,
We are searching for a savior, we are needing a revival,
So we call on Dusty Baker as the man to save our town,
Because so far Marvin Lewis has only let us down,
We spend a lot of time and we spend a lot of money,
Buying such expensive tickets that we fail to find it funny,
When we watch dejected faces exiting the stands,
If anybody needs their team to win it's the Cincinnati fans,
If anybody needs their team to win it's the Cincinnati fans ...
