Stephen Dame Wrote:Leafs Lament (Set to the tune of "38 Years Old")

25 men broke loose from the ACC
Went on a quest for Lord Stanley

Mats picture lined up across the front page
Still the Leafs are hurt by Quinn and old age

Don Cherry told the people there's nothing to fear
But if you wanna back a winner: “best not hang around here”

They mostly came from town's with long Swedish names
But all two dozen were Hog-Town shames

Same pattern on the jersey No cups on the wall
Stanley's seat been empty 38 years and all
Freezin' slow time away from the top
38 long years, never kissed the Cup

We were sitting round the table, heard the telephone ring
Said: “They re-signed Domi, they don’t know anything”

Felt a tap on the shoulder, it’s time to hit the ice
“Next year is our year” always seems to suffice

See the Leafs just take: Old men, no skill
Local boys go elsewhere Till they’re over the hill
Folks went back to normal after ‘93
As close as they ever came to Lord Stanley

Leafs Nation cried “the horror” when they saw the sched
“So many games ‘gainst Ottawa, we’ll end up dead”

Over shoulder, they’re loud yet secretly fret
Despite their boasting they haven’t won yet

Same pattern on the jersey No cups on the wall
Stanley's seat been empty 38 years and all
Freezin' slow time away from the top
38 long years, never kissed the Cup

Hahaha! Well done!
