Throw In Hank

Dear Minnesota Twins,

I hear you might consider sending Johan to Boston,
Let me ask you to step back and consider what it's costing,
Your team and your town cause all you'll get in return,
Will be headlines that read how the Twins have been burned,

So here's an offer from the Yankees that you really should consider,
Cause you must be holding out waiting for the highest bidder,
If you ever want your team to have a shot to be a winner,
Then please listen to this proposition straight from Steinbrenner,

We'll give you the rights to the mighty Trenton Thunder,
And if that's not enough and you still have to wonder,
Then A-Rod will donate half his salary,
And maybe we can throw in Lady Liberty,
Cause she'd look just as good on the lakes of Minnesota,
As Santana would look with the Yankees in October,
Is it deal or no deal, won't you tell me what you think,
If that's somehow not enough then George will throw in Hank,

Now before you go making any rash decisions,
Take a look at our offer and consider what you're missing,
If you trade Santana for a guy named Coco,
Then your fans will think that you've gone a little loco,

You deserve top dollar for the best in the game,
So don't make some trade that is going to cause you shame,
Just fly over to New York and let's get this deal done,
Because no other owner's going to give up his son,

We'll put your name on the new Yankee park,
We can give you John Sterling and that's just a start,
You can have Reggie Jackson and our tribute to Ruth,
And proudly display it in your town of Duluth,
You can have season tickets to watch Johan play,
Be our guest in Times Square on New Year's Day,
Is it deal or no deal, won't you tell me what you think,
If that's somehow not enough then George will throw in Hank ...
