Jerry, George, and Kramer Against Woody, Cliff, and Norm
The Yankees got the best of the Babe Ruth trade,
And it lasted for 86 years,
But the Red Sox finally have repaid,
New York for some of those tears,
But the famous curse caused lots of hurt,
Cause all I used to hear,
Was the fans lament Bucky freaking Dent,
As they guzzled their Sam Adams beer,
It's a rivalry that runs deeper,
Than a simple sports debate,
It's only a distance of 200 miles,
That separates the hate,
It's several generations,
That kept it true to form,
It pits Jerry, George, and Kramer,
Against Woody, Cliff, and Norm,
The Celtics tradition and history,
Is a source of Bostonian pride,
While the Big Apple brings up Bill Buckner,
As a way to hurt Boston inside,
It can make a young man feel older,
And it can make an old man feel young,
Like it made a young Pedro lay out old Don Zimmer,
Thinking the old man had swung,
It's a rivalry that runs deeper,
Than a simple sports debate,
It's only a distance of 200 miles,
That separates the hate,
It's several generations,
That kept it true to form,
It pits Jerry, George, and Kramer,
Against Woody, Cliff, and Norm,
The Patriots road to perfection,
Started by beating the Jets,
While the Manhattan papers referred to,
A camera New York won't forget,
As New England continued their winning,
Well, Beantown became more defiant,
And in a poetic twist fate couldn't resist,
They ended up playing the Giants,
It's a rivalry that runs deeper,
Than a simple sports debate,
It's only a distance of 200 miles,
That separates the hate,
It's several generations,
That kept it true to form,
It pits Jerry, George, and Kramer,
Against Woody, Cliff, and Norm
